Yahoo! JAPAN Auction

Yahoo! JAPAN Auction is like a Japanese version of eBay.

 

Auctions perform differently here. As time runs low, each bid will add an additional 5 minutes to the auction time. The auction will continue to run until there are no additional bids for 5 minutes. 

 

Positives

  • Rarer items easier to find
  • Can be significantly cheaper than other sites

Negatives

  • Heavy post-purchase fees, may have to fight others in auctions
  • Slow delivery time
Mercari

Mercari is similar to Yahoo! JAPAN Auctions, but more relaxed and less professional. 

 

Make sure you search with Japanese text, otherwise you will get few results. 

 

Positives:

  • Cheaper
