Rinkya / Yahoo Japan Auctions - anyone use these to buy from Japan?
Hi everyone,
Has anyone here ever used Rinkya, or Yahoo Japan auctions (or a similar site) to successfully buy things from Japan? Basically AFAIK these are an intermediary to help foreigners buy things from Japanese websites or Japanese ebay-style auctions, that wouldn't ship overseas otherwise. I am interested in buying a camera from japan (a japan-only model). I am wondering if anyone has any experiences or advice? thanks |

I've used Japan Auction Agency 3 times in the past without any problem. One of those times was to buy off something from Yahoo Auctions

Do you mind if I ask, what was the costs involved with your purchases? (were you buying items worth 10,000 yen or 100,000 yen? etc) FWIW I'm looking at a camera around 40,000 yen. |
