Buyee is great! Bought a lot of stuff through them. Electronics, clothes, blurays, even food lol (shio kombu is still not very common outside of Japan). Never had a problem!

The only downside if you buy electronics with batteries: Buyee strictly enforces a maximum 2 batteries per package rule. So for example a Nintendo Switch would be shipped in 2 package because it has 3 batteries, 1 in the tablet, and 1 in each joycon. Have to plan around that when buying multiple electronics https://faq.buyee.jp/article/99?lang=en (look for items without battery, “unit only” etc)

I used them recently and I was half expecting to give them my money and never receive anything, but actually they were great and very helpful. No complaints at all.

Any tips for using it? Maybe I am trying to find the wrong things but every time I have tried to browse it confusing.

Should I be looking Amazon.jp and then buying on buyee?

Thank you for saying that because I was eyeing a lot of 12 Nintendo DSs
