“Buyee is an good and reliable platform for buying items from Japan. I have bought quite a few items recently and pleased with the communication, notification and in general the way it was handled.”
“I've been buying mostly designer clothes and accessories with their service for few years now without any issues. Their app has great interface and is quite easy to use. However, I do think that their fees add up quickly making it a bit expensive. As for delivery, my last purchase was sent from their warehouse a month ago with an estimated arrival time of 6 days - I still haven't received my shipment but this could perhaps be a delay due to pandemic...”
“Made some purchases through the Buyee website, mostly rare items on Mercari, such as Anime/ Manga related goods or goods from different bands which are already sold out.
I´m using Buyee since a couple of years now and I was never disappointed.
Fees are a little bit pricely but frequently they offer coupons to exclude the service fee or %-off coupons for international shipping.
Easy and convenient to use.
I would recommend this proxy service, if you´re searching for (rare) itmes.”
“I'm first time using buyee. Generally customer service is responsive with email replies within 24h. Unfortunately online associates are not available on Saturdays and Sundays when it matters most. Fees are high. Each purchase costs ¥500 at the most basic (¥300 service fee + ¥200 payment fee). That makes it very costly to buy stuffs less than ¥2,500. Worst is it takes too long between receiving our orders and actually making the purchase, thus risking missing out on listings with very good offers. This should be improved. There should be associates on standby 24/7 to execute order requests promptly.”
“Buyee is so easy and convenient to use. And it seems like they also give out coupons frequently.
This is the first time I purchased usinb buyee and will definitely not be the last.
Thank you buyee.”
“I use Buyee to shop on Mercari Japan, and have ordered many items with them. The fees may add up, but they often have coupons to exclude the service fee, which is really nice!
I've tried two different ways of shipping, the time can vary depending on your country's policies when it comes to packages, so be aware it can take time to get to you (DHL is super fast, but a little pricey).
All packages I've gotten were intact with zero damage.
Their customer service provides quick responses and is easy to communicate with!
Buyee also doesn't include sold out items when you search on Mercari, so you don't have to be disappointed when you click on an item that's not available anymore.”
“My shopping experience with Buyee has been great, although a little bit pricey.
You can bid without a previous deposit in Yahoo! Auctions, which is quite good! But most of the time, you have to pay a 500 Yen fee per item bought + shipping from the sellers to the warehouse in Japan, then international shipping again.
That being said, everything I've bought has been bought by the Buyee team flawlessly and the fact that they have occasional %off coupons for international shipping or coupons for free fees makes Buyee a great service if you want to buy safely from Mercari, Rakuten and others! Just keep in mind the fees haha.
4/5, great service for rare Japanese items and more!”
“Buyee has been an excellent service for buying hard to find items on mercari. I’ve used other proxy service before, and Buyee has a very simple and straightforward method/platform for costumers to use and feel comfortable with. My review with be solely for Mercari purchases.
Pros:
-Excellent customer service. They usually respond in less than 24 hours.
-Simple platform to use and navigate to help find items
- Multiple shopping options (currently limited due to Covid-19)
- amazing promotions that customers would surely take advantage of.
Cons- (sadly this is the biggest one for me) there is usually a small delay from the moment you choose to purchase and the moment Buyee actually makes the purchase. Because of this, I sometime have lost hard to find items since I could not buy it on the spot.
- some sellers on mercari require communication for prices, but currently Buyee does not offer this service. They did provide an email that they are working on this and may offer it in the future.
Overall, I have greatly enjoyed using Buyee and will continue doing so in the future.”
“Buyee gives you the opportunity to buy things from sites like Yahoo Auctions Japan and mercari. On these sites you can find rare items for more then half the price of the same products on eBay. So, even if the shipping and fees can make your purchase expensive, most of the time it will cost less then on eBay! My collection of rare trading cards has grown a lot thanks trough them!”
“I like Buyee, because it allows me to buy what I want Even though. I'm abroad. I can buy without problems. Parcel delivered directly to my home every time Especially, I like to find Idol products, my favorite web is Mercari. There are products for me to enjoy. Easy to use, convenient, quick, even in the covit-19 range. I received the products as scheduled. And has many promotions for shoppers, such as those who are overseas will really like the shipping discount. I really like it. Impress me and like to use this website forever.”
