I bought my girlfriend a subscription to Candy Japan about a year ago as a gift. It's been about a year now and I must say, it's really been a joy. We intend to keep our subscription going. My girlfriend and I are always so psyched when a new box comes in.

Thanks for the great work you do!

I have just discovered the previous write-ups about your business numbers [0] and it is awesome! So much valuable information. Thanks for taking the time to share!

I saw your site in the old thread, how would you compare it 3 years ago to now?

Do you think you've saturated your market? I.e., are you looking to put it on the back burner and build something else or are you still focused on scaling candyjapan?

I feel like I probably should be focusing on something else, but some nice discounts would kick in if I can reach 1000 subscribers. That's still a bit far, but seems possible, so I'm obsessing about reaching that level.

I bought your book on Leanpub. Great read, as I recall.

I like the - "Try unique sweets even if you are in <country>." headline. Did you test the website with and without it?

Haven't tested it, as with my level of sales it takes about 6 months to run a proper test.

I will say that it looks a bit awkward if your country would normally be prefaced with "The".

>Try unique sweets even if you are in United Kingdom

I also don't like the golden text-shadow, but that's just personal taste.

I just signed up for myself in the US, thank you for posting it here :) Quick note, how does this work for someone that changes countries every 6 months -- e.g. In Vietnam today, in Thailand in 6 months, etc.?

I'd love to subscribe to something like that to get exposure to different, interesting foods. But I'd prefer something healthy — I wonder if there's something like that.

What do you do about visas? Do you have a day job?

I love your "behind the scenes" section, and I actually meant to contact you about the optimal filling of the boxes.

Ha! I ran into you online before : )
