This is a good IP Hider program which will get you to bypass country restrictions. It's free for 3 days so use it wisely.

The nice thing about this one is that it doesn't slow the connection speed like a lot of those crappy web proxies.

Hmm... I can see uses for that and I did not know about it. The fact that most Japan auctions and many stores will not ship outside the country is the whole reason for the proxy service! The seller ships locally to a warehouse in Japan that inspects the goods to make sure they match the auction description before shipping to the real buyer.

As Tcoat mentioned, there is always customs to be dealt with, though I have faced that before buying from China.
