That box was so bundled up that whoever sent it was going to make damn sure that arrived in one piece.
Buyee has always ultra bubble wrapped my orders, especially when I order huge lots $2000+ in value it’s still 1500yen for the bubble wrapping and it’s very worth it.
Most banks do have conversion fees with foreign currencies, so that's probably why the converted price is a little more. Each bank can charge different amounts. As for Shipping, damn, you got screwed over. My roommate and I have been using Buyee for a couple years and usually pay about 10-15 dollars on average for shipping. We usually get things off Yahoo Auction though, since the App is good at giving notifications and the auctions end up ending at much lower prices that equivalent products on Mercari.

It feels like Buyee is doing the same as what PayPal is doing. If you pay in your currency (let's just say USD) for an item that you're paying a different currency for (like JPY), Paypal is going to give you its own exchange rate, which is 5-10% worse than paying with your bank's own exchange rate. I did the math a lot of times with a lot of currencies and I had 5-10% better payments without using PayPal's own currency exchange rate. That is the default and when you're trying to change that, Paypal is trying to freak you out, but at least for me, it was better for me every single time. Buyee probably has the same exchange rate conversion method.
I used Sendico many times now and I only had issues with items that can not be exported from Japan, so that is not even their fault.
hey hey! just a small thing (and for anyone else whos reading), i noticed you complain about the different qualities in wrapping. the proxy service themselves doesn't package the items that way, the seller does it, and japanese sellers make sure their stuff is SECURE. i order can badges a lot, and its not uncommon to see the badges in their plastic protectors, then bubbled wrapped individually, then bubble wrapped around the entirety. it all depends on how the original seller ships it, which is why in one package you saw the games just loose, but in another the games were individually bubble wrapped. hope this clears that :)
Eh I’ve used Buyee before, they were fine. I remember they will generally pack orders as they get them, unless you tell them specifically through email to get rid of the packaging it came in to consolidate further
Hi can you please help a fellow modder. I'm looking for the grey looking polarizer film for my GameBoy pocket. Do you have a source?
What is the maximum size screen that could fit in a gba shell, Length and width wise?
zenmarket video! Would love to see how it stacks up
I like Buyee they pack super well!
I used Sendico to buy four older Aibos (two 111s, a 210, a 311) and was told not to trust Buyee to handle Aibos properly. Sendico did a fantastic job with all four, they each were well packaged and shipped without issues.
I didn't know you where in oregon too lol I'm surprised I haven't seen you at any retro game expos!
I went to the Portland retro gaming expo in 22 and couldn’t make it last year but I hope to be there this year! Are there any others in the area I should know about?
@JakeSimmons there's also sidequest expo in Portland each March 👍 I go to both prge and sidequest every year, hopefully I'll run Into you if you go this year!
That box looks like they just used a bigger box and just cut it down to better fit your items.
Yeah I realized while editing but I still don’t get the tape down the middle lol
@@JakeSimmons yeah I don't get that part either 🤣
@@JakeSimmons For stability, I do the same with big packages
@@JakeSimmons I did some box tapping it's just more secure to tape down the middle and seal of the corners and much easier.
good vid and can my name by harry on the special thanks not the beat band i made that when i was 4 (please)
in the next vid
I will probably forget so I would recommend changing your name on your account
@@JakeSimmons k
Thanks for this. Now I can just stay away from buyee.
please make a zen market review, we must see you get that Virtual Boy!
you pay more because of yen to usd exchange rate
The address is set up in the European style by the looks. Makes perfect sense to me anyway in Ireland 🙈🙈
Interesting… you think they would change it based off of the country you select
seems like a US problem
extremely helpful
thanks pal
I don't like Buyee, they make packages heavier to charge you much more. they added random cardboard pieces without any sense to my package just to charge me more. Like seriously ?? the fees are way to high too. Never buying stuff from Buyee again.
So idk if it’s a scam but I keep seeing (.01) cent Nintendo Switch and I’m kinda tempted but I don’t want to end up spending money I don’t have.… HELP!!
