Is there a way I can use it?

Want to buy some old Dior Homme Sunglasses off there, but not sure how I can navigate and purchase etc?

Most sellers do not ship internationally or you can try communicating with them to see if they do. Also you've got to register with Japan yahoo in order to use the service. Normal yahoo acount won't work.

use bid-service.jp from Juno just order something off him and should be arriving soon.

Yeah anything from Japan is expensive pretty much whatever forwarding service you use, we just have to pay that price to get what we want.

bumps

What site/ contact is cheapest for doing this? I'm convinced bidservice is a rip as the quotes vary crazily from time to time but i got the bug and all this Number (N)ine, Undercover, N. Hoolywood, Julius, Lad Musician etc. is getting the better of me.

Help

I use his calculation thing, if he misquotes me, I just pull him up on it. Though he quoted me once for a Visvim bag, £160 inc shipping... tried to make it go through but then he wised up Sad

Christ. By then the auction is over...

Any idea if they do mark the value down for customs purposes?

i don't understand what the problem is? why the reluctance to ship abroad?

Because they don't have Paypal accounts? so how are they going to receive payment from an international buyer?
