participate in auctions? Umbrellas
do not understand why people do not much talk about how to participate in auctions, and the truth of my past I bean: P, but thanks to Danielle
who reminded me, I decided to make this
sort of like buying guide. Also I leave the link to the post of "As you like to buy? " has useful tips and details of lolita clothing purchases.
Empecmos!
What I'm looking for?
first thing to know you want to buy. Whether an OP, a JSK or pair of socks you must first be clear about this. If we want a specific print we must start taking the Japanese name of our item, this name appears in the pages of the store just before
stock images, an example:
On the other hand, if only we know that we want socks and more or less the color, or JSK and color, I recommend searching the key words in Japanese. For this you can do it directly from sb online translator, like google.cl
. Or review this comprehensive list of keywords
, very useful! and even include the link to the yahoo serch Japan!.
know what you want to buy! Now what?
Well! sieguiente it is to get an intermediary.
auction sites are closed for Japanese and it is impossible that you can buy directly, so that there are people who charge an extra percentage but made the purchase for you, these people are the middlemen. You can find on google a graaan number of people who are dedicated to the Shopping Service, but I leave a list of SS
done in EGL .
If you ask me I since I did participate in auctions to travs of
Mukunoki and I would recommend charges 20% but is very responsible, and establishes a relationship of friendship with him, and of course, jams I had problems! :)
Some considerations:
- are intermediaries who do not accept auctions with less than 24 hrs
- There intermediaries not send certain countries, including Chile, airmail! or EMS, look good!
- Know your broker, looking for reviews! Lee
- conditions. Accepts paypal? Credit cards accepted?, I advise the win if or forgiveness?, What happens if two of his clients want the same item?, How does the Commission system?
- I have to pay before bidear or payment after winning?
Once you've decided which broker you are using, you can start looking!
And what are these auction sites?
There are many sites!, But I prefer are:
Of the three only the Furima
has a different system is in fact more like the "Buy it now!" Ebay, but it is very hard to find!, so I rarely see go in, but there are bargains ah.
Mboko, is a site travs susbastas to cell phones, I like it because very few people involved and because I've always won ah! : P
LAUNCHcast
Japan, is more similar to Ebay! Thousands of shops and individuals selling! so many people involved and your chances of winning are lower if not the last bideas, peroooo! There is an immense amount of items! Unlike Mboko.
How I look?
Well! Once you have in mind that we want and have copied the Japanese keyword go to search and paste. We can use a browser
Chrome machine translation as or from an online translator to ask that we spend all the text in English or do it from Japanese, everything is all good intuitive grasp that once a custom:
Mboko search Then
We can review the list of results, I'll explain a little from right to left which means each number, the first is the time remaining to the auction, the second is the amount of people who have bideado, and the last number the price you're going. Japan Auctions uses exactly the same system and the same order:
From right to left: Time left / Bids / Price When we find something we like we do click and go to the auction page. I will be very simple action because I'm sure that if you go by clicking the Dems realize things like user profile, if you have more items on auction etc, I focus simply on the item. If you look next to the item description appears, fijense always says,
is new? is used? have spots? and if they are not safe to use a translator! Or ask your broker:). Ms appears below the square of the image. The numbers say from top to bottom: the auction price, time remaining, the term excta date, number of bids.
Japan Auctions, uses the same system but has the names down, review it in the translator if they do not understand what you say), but eventually you get used to.
Well! find something we like, ends in a day, est within our budget and we bidear!, we can do?. Depending on the broker's how contmos but
always ask:
- item name in Japanese: Copy / paste of what he says at the start of the auction, just before
- Image Link: url ! is important!
- Max bid: I mean, how much we pay for our maximum amount!. This is important because the broker will make a bid only for the amount you indicated. Your socks can be a ESTs 3000 yen but your willing to pay 4500 yen for them. You say that, to bide the 4500. If you know how the Ebay auctions, you will understand how this works, you do not understand You'll have to figure out before! : P I'm not very good explaining these systems, but ebay has this Practical Guide.
- When does it end?. The broker needs to know if the auction ends within 24 hours or within two days, to know when bidear
contacted our broker, accepts, send us an estimate of how everything will come out, accept, he makes the Bideo and hope ... Finally comes the day and if we did everything right and we're lucky!
WON! And if I win that?
Depending on how your broker must pay, or if he be paid with deposit. Some included in the price of shipping invoice from the vendor on, mind you!. When the item gets to where your SS, and tell you You'll have to pay the shipping from him to you.
shipping In topic recommend to use EMS, not only because it is fast and does not fall in customs, but because in addition it is safe! and has a tracking number, ahhh! and I lost nothing jams unlike EMS airmail or even salt. But it all depends on your budget and whether you've just purchased is very valuable or if you need it urgently!. Choose carefully!
If all goes well you will receive your items in
5 to give to 1 month depending on the shipping you used, EMS takes 5 das a week, and go about 1 month, in fact ... a see a skirt took 2 months to reach travs SAL!
xD Wait! I want more details!
This is only an introductory guide:), for more details on how to use the sites, you can see the complete guide Japonica
Market (which incidentally is also a broker). Ac can see that each part of the means listed in the description of items, time, etc. IDs.
Guide to Mboko Guide to Yahoo Japan General recommendations
- well Check your budget: You have to consider the price of the auction, the seller sent to your broker, the Commission of the intermediary, and the price of shipping from on to you. Remember that depending on how the system works with your SS, is how much of% is applied, and how much you pay. Also remember that the weight of what you buy affects the price of shipping and there are things that are most difficult to send to others, such as umbrellas!
- pictures Product Review: Look closely! one item can be used again and jams, but there are also items with serious damages, Lost bows do not come with lazito in the back, or have stains on the lace. Look closely!
- replicas Beware!: Much BODYLINE turning!, Imagine looking Fruit Parlour and end with one of BL! fijate well! and check if the pictures out the brand label!
