The fee that shows up later
r/Buyee's shipping comparison is explicit that domestic postage inside Japan is not always known at the moment you click buy, and that proxies differ on the exchange rate they apply. We store Buyee's domestic postage only as a rough range. ZenMarket is actual cost, unnumbered. We do not store an exchange rate at all.
A r/Mercari thread says using a proxy can beat Mercari's own international flow. Treat that as experience, then run your yen price through the estimator.
Steps
- Copy the yen price. Read the price on the listing yourself. JapanLanded does not fetch the page.
- Weigh it, or say you didn't. Enter grams. If you leave weight blank, the tool uses an unsourced placeholder and labels it.
- Read pay-now separately from arrival. The partial sum is not a landed total. Duty amounts are not calculated.
- Check whether it can leave Japan. Lithium batteries, alcohol, and 100 V gear each have their own note. The result is not a customs clearance.
- Order on the proxy's own site. Outbound links are public pages until affiliate programs are enrolled. We never take payment.
Questions
Can you read a Mercari URL?
No. URL fetching is out of scope. Paste the yen price.
