Is this a scam? I submitted an offer and the seller has a $70 shipping charge as part of the deal. When they responded to my offer they said that FedEx now requires shippers in Japan to provide the FedEx account number of the recipient if the recipient is located in the United States.

I can't find any indication that this is the case online and it seems sus (I'll end up getting charge for shipping twice, once by Reverb and then again by FedEx). But the seller has pretty good feedback on Reverb.

Has anyone encountered this before? Thanks in advance.
