Where we buy from
Most Japanese sellers deliver domestically only. We give you a Japanese address and a way to pay, so those listings become available to you.
Yahoo! Auctions Japan
Japan's largest auction platform. Send us the listing and your maximum bid, or ask about bidding yourself with an ID from us.
Mercari Japan
Secondhand listings are one-of-one. When something sells it is gone, so send Mercari links quickly.
Rakuten
Thousands of independent shops under one roof. Prices differ between sellers for the same item, and we compare before buying.
Amazon Japan
Some items ship internationally, many do not. Send the link and we will tell you whether you need us at all.
Japanese online stores
ZOZOTOWN, Yodobashi, Suruga-ya, Mandarake, official brand stores. If it has a web page and a price, send it.
Local sellers and auctions
Smaller platforms and regional sellers with no English at all. Tell us what you are looking for and we will search.
How it works
Every order is checked before anything is committed, so the quote reflects the actual item, seller, weight, size and destination.
- Send the link or details of what you want to buy, including size, colour and quantity where relevant.
- We check and quote. Price, availability, warehouse options and an initial estimate — item price, our 8% fee, domestic shipping in Japan, and international shipping.
- You approve, we buy. Nothing is charged before you say yes. The item is paid for from Japan and delivered to our warehouse.
- We receive and check it. Parcels are opened, inspected and photographed. If something is wrong, you hear about it first.
- We ship, or we hold. Send it straight out, or keep it with us and combine it with your next orders into one shipment.
Buying several things? Have them shipped together
International shipping is priced by weight and volume, so four separate parcels cost far more than one. We hold items free of charge for a reasonable period and repack everything into a single shipment.
What we can help with
Collectibles and hobby items
Figures, models, trading cards, event exclusives and limited runs that were never sold outside Japan.
Fashion and footwear
Japanese labels and archive pieces. Note that Japanese sizing runs small — check measurements in centimetres, not the size label.
Cameras and electronics
Japan's used camera market is deep and honestly graded. Check the voltage and plug type for your country before ordering.
Vehicle parts
JDM car and motorcycle parts that are difficult or expensive to source anywhere else. Send the part number if you have it.
Business equipment
Machinery, tools and commercial goods. We also handle bulk and repeat orders for companies.
Other Japanese products
Musical instruments, watches, kitchenware, stationery, books. If it is legal to ship, we can look into it.
Shipping eligibility always follows export rules, import regulations, airline restrictions and customs requirements at both ends. Ask before you buy if you are unsure.
