Buyee
June 14, 2020

My favorite website is Mercari, where I can buy genuine Japanese items which I never find anywhere else. Without their support, I won't able to enjoy those products on my wishlist.
Due to covid-19, there are few delivery options, however, after consulting with online assistant,
I decided to use DHL which is quite expensive option but worth using its service.
I received the item the very next day as it is intact.
I always love their promotions such as international fee or service fee discount. It is worth buying the rare items through Buyee.

Very easy to use and allow buyers to get stuff on auction sites in Japan which is great. However, be prepared for the various handling fee, local shipping fee, consolidation fee and also international shipping fee. Ended up the items I got are much more experience than i thought, though they may not be easy to obtain from where I am.

I love using Buyee to buy from Mercari Japan!

Other Japanese buying services charge a fortune for buying from Mercari's JP market, but Buyee is very VERY reasonable, and I've managed to buy items that I would never otherwise been able to get from Japan!

I recommend Buyee to everyone shopping for items from Japan!

The most secure site to buy items from Japan.
They're attentive and very professionals in their work.
I hope there would be more promotions for the international fees, but more than that, I really like Buyee.

What can i say about buyee?
When i want to buy a special "only japan" item, i always look over Buyee.jp.
Easy to navigate, simple, clear about fees; also every Time Buyee offers a large, very large, amount of Discount Coupon to bring down even more the overall prices!
When i have some question and trouble, i can open a chat whit an english customer support, and they will assist me asap whit precise answers, no matter how strange nor how many questions i wrote to them. (very patient!).
Various shipping method, also seamail is avaible and great care for handling package (i'd love to import big items rather than one or two items).
ALSO a value addition is the android app, a pure bliss to keep traking of various Auctions on the walk.
Speaking of auction, they provide me whit a "pick from CreditCard money" so i don't need to charge funds (even if you can do it!)

I have bought some Transformers from Yahoo Japan through Buyee as it allows English speakers to easily buy from Japanese only sites. Their service fees are reasonable at 500yen with multiple shipping options at different price points. They occasionally will hand out some coupons which is nice. I will continue to use it.

Best so far. Keep you updated on every step. The re-packaging services is top class.
Consolidate your shipment and ask for re-packaging, it is a must.

Buyee is great just be mindful the fees add up really fast and shipping can get expensive. That being said I will continue to use it, as there is some deals if you keep your eyes open.

I bought mostly fountain pens, watches, and arts items from Yahoo! Japan Auction though Buyee as the agent. I think they do an excellent job In responding to customer enquiries. Also Buyee staffs also do an outstanding job in packing up parcels, which in my own opinion, is reliable and safe. Buyee is also improving on business promotional parts as they are frequently giving out more complimentary coupons and discounts to Mercari and Yahoo! Japan Auction users. However there is also some drawbacks -- the flat rate of 500 yen agent service fees; In some occasions, the item prices (or other cheap stuff) is less than even 500 yen of service fees, this flat service rate policy sometimes involuntarily prompts me to consider buying more "luxury" or "expensive" stuffs and this make me "psychology more balance".
In overall, I rate them the highest agent buying company compare to Zenmarket or BuyJapan etc...

Easy to use!
May 30, 2020

Currently i'm using this website for the first time to buy from japan mercari and so far it has been effortlessly easy to use and navigate! Some might shy away from all the fees however the website also has frequent promotions that can help buyers save on items and shipping costs. I highly recommend this to find rare and unique items from japan and i'll definitely be go back to the site in the future :)
