Dated record
Updates: operator notices and community reports, with dates attached
Promotions expire on the operator’s calendar and community posts age in weeks. Everything below carries the date it was announced or the date we read it, so you can tell signal from leftovers.
Halloween Fest 2026, as announced
Released 2026-10-09 at 21:47:45 on the announcement board. The pieces, each with its own window: a sitewide 10%% shipping subsidy for October 10 to 16, Beijing time, with subsidies expiring November 30; a ¥1300 coupon pack under code KAKOHALLOWEEN, redeemable October 10 to 31 in the user centre, tiered from ¥300 off over ¥2000 down to ¥30 off over ¥21; and a flash sale October 15 to 16 promising at least 1%% off all products, a floor worth reading as written.
The referral reward programme announced for October 15 ran past the end of our capture, so its terms are not quoted here. Coupon stacking rules live with the announcement itself, not this summary.
Standing notices that outlast the season
Three board entries behave like policy, not promotion. EU parcels pay a flat 3 euro category-based customs line from July 1, 2026, folded into shipping at submission (announced 2026-06-23), and duty-free EU lines continue alongside it (2026-07-01). US buyers keep tax-free routes priced roughly five to ten dollars over USPS per the notice of 2025-04-17.
The oldest ticker item is also the most quoted: new users receive ¥3000, about $410, in coupons, announced 2024-09-22 and still pinned first on 2026-10-10. The operator renders that gift differently on different banners; this site quotes only the dated announcement figure.
What buyers report back, counted on 2026-10-10
The brand subreddit r/kakobuy presents itself as Kakobuy Official Community, showing 21K members on the day we counted. The threads worth a beginner’s time were specific: a 10.7 kg haul delivered to the UK, the top post of its year at 75 upvotes; a buyer questioning a quote for 10.2 kg after the rehearsal step, 37 comments of working arithmetic; and a delay thread naming the UK Air Freight Direct Line (Economy), a line name that matches the official estimator’s list exactly.
On video, the traffic went to practical walkthroughs: a step-by-step beginner tutorial at 31,250 views, a customs-seizure avoidance guide at 17,616, and a 20 kg budget haul unboxing at 86,860, all counted 2026-10-10. View counts are popularity, not accuracy; where a video and a help article disagree, the article wins.

How this record is maintained
Last reviewed 2026-10-12. Announcements are quoted with their release timestamps; community numbers carry the day they were counted; expired promotions are cut rather than archived into confusion. If a window above has lapsed and this page has not caught it, the about page says where to send the correction, and the label pages explain why dated reading is this site’s whole habit.
