All, I just wanted to give everyone a brief review of the web sight Japamart. For those of you that have never used it or heard about it, it is a portal that lets you shop on Yahoo Japan. Japamart acts like a agent and bids on items you tell them to. Once you win the auction, the items get shipped to them and then forwarded to you. I had absolutely no issues with this sight and in fact in one night, I was able to purchase 12 items I had been searching for for years. First you need to give them a deposit in order to bid on items. I put in 100 USD just to test it out. You do a search through their portal and then you can bid. The only issues I had with the sight was they are not the best at accommodating combined shipping. It's kinda a catch 22.......You will get the items for cheap, but the postage will be high. All in all, I thought the commission was aceptable and I will continue to use their services. It is easily worth it when I think of the hundreds of hours I spent online looking for these items on USA Ebay. This is not a commercial, I will be posting my pictures in the Jumbo section soon. www.Japamart.com

For Firefox users:FF has a plugin addon that will allow you to translate the webpage from Japanese to English... Go to the Firefox addon pages to get it and install it into your FF browser. zozo-Magengar I know about yahoo japan, but nothing is written in english! how is possible shopping?

howdy bro rodrevil, I refer you to the sales section of RJ. just do a quick search and you will find enough on-line sellers who ship worldwide. the most usual suspect being hobby link japan, toy-wave and such... just dig in and you'll find a fortune

Follow the Yellow Brick Road... ;D en-us.www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/customize/There, you'll find all the Addons ya want. They're explorer programs which install into your Firefox browser... such as a webpage translator, a currency converter, a measurement converter... ya know- tools for use with Firefox. When I wanna view a Japanese webpage in english, I just click my webpage translator to translate it from Japanese to English. When I wanna calculate the Yen to the USD, I click my currency converter. When you folks post the measurements of action figures in "meters", I click my measurement converter to get me the translation to "inches". And lots more FF tools. 8) zozo-Magengar Addon pages I have FF but Iam not sure what addon pages are could you explain a little bit more Thank you.. Whatj

how does it faire with Rinkya? I've been surfing and studying the three websites (rinkya, japamart & shoppingmalljapan) for a few days now...... and the big main difference between the 3 is their deposit scheme....... while all 3 requires you to give a deposit only Rinkya offers times 5 of that amount you can bid for example...... if youre deposit is $100 you can bid up to $500......... unlike japamart and shoppingmalljapan they only offer double the deposit ($100 = $200 max bid)....... and IMO that's a big difference....... also shipping here is a killer.... you have to spend for shipping within japan...... then spend again for shipping to your place................... hope this helps
