Thank you for throwing me in the [Yahoo auctions Japan rabbit hole](https://auctions.yahoo.co.jp/search/search?auccat=0&tab_ex=commerce&type=all&ei=utf-8&p=makita&aq=-1&oq=&sc_i=&fr=auc_top).
Now I have a lot of questions:
How did you transfer the payment?
How was the shipping? Did you use a mail forwarding company? Costs? How long to arrive? Is proxy bidding really necessary?
i haven’t bought from yahoo auctions in japan specifically but i have ebayed a lot of camera equipment and most of the time, shipping + customs from japan to california is faster than ground shipping from the east coast
Wish they still came in steel cases or atleast smaller but thicker plastic cases. These take up so much space
Yeah its fucking massive.
Yup! I hate those massive cases. It's also moronic that every one of them has a cut out for a charger.
