Looking for a Japanese user to proxy clothes
« on: Fri, 02 November 2018, 12:32:20 »
I wanted to get some clothes from a Japanese brand or two (so an easy ship) and figured if I could just get someone here to help me instead of using a proxy service, I could save quite a bit. Hit me up if you can help  :-*. Might also need some help with translation and sizing cause Kapital has to be doing something weird with their measurements...

I can proxy things if you're still looking.
I proxy anything including keyboards (キーボード / 鍵盤), from both Japan (日本) and China (中國). For more information, you may visit my dedicated webpage here: https://www.keyboards.es/proxying.html

visvim?

Kapital probably, maybe Blue Blue Japan. They all have substantial markups here, but with the fees that most proxies charge, I wouldn't end up saving all that much

Yeah I've noticed as well. I've grabbed a couple visvim items from y!jp auctions and proxy/shipping fees weren't too awful, but going your route is a much better idea.

What service did you use? White Rabbit was charging a 9.9% service fee which adds up real fast

Buyee.jp, I've bought both clothes and keyboards using them, would definitely recommend.

So it looks like you can only buy from their list of sites, is that true?
