Dear customers, In response to customer requests and updated international shipping policies, this product is now also stored and shipped from warehouses. This means customers can enjoy a much faster delivery through fullfillment by . However, the price is slightly increased to offset storage costs and orders won't come with any gift spice packs, because policy doesn't allow it. You can still purchase curry which ships from Japan. It means a longer shipping time (1-2 weeks) but with a spice pack and lower price. Thank you for your understanding.
