eBay Japan Doesn’t Exist? Best Alternatives for International Buyers
Jul 07, 2025 Episode 4

Thought eBay Japan was a thing? Surprise — it’s not. At least, not the way most people think.

In this episode of the Remambo Japan Shopping Podcast, we dive into the myth of eBay Japan and explain why it’s not the go-to marketplace for buying Japanese goods. More importantly, we reveal the real alternatives, websites where Japanese sellers actually list items, and how you can shop there even if you live abroad.

🔍 What you'll learn:
 – Why “eBay Japan” isn’t a separate platform like eBay UK or eBay Germany
 – Where Japanese sellers really post their items for local buyers
 – The top marketplaces for rare finds, Japanese collectibles, and secondhand deals
 – How to safely shop on Japanese platforms even if you don’t speak the language
 – How Remambo helps you buy from sites like Yahoo! Auctions, Rakuma, Mercari, and more.

We also answer:
 📦 Can you still buy Japan-only items if they’re not on global eBay?
 💰 What’s the best way to save on shipping and fees?
 🧠 Is using a proxy service complicated?

If you’re tired of seeing “Japan-only” in listing titles or getting crushed by middleman markups — this episode gives you the smarter route to buying straight from the source.
