oo 1 Posted May 27, 2003 Share Posted May 27, 2003 Anyone use much of www.rakuten.co.jp (that big Japanese shopping site)? You can buy all sorts on there and the 2 times I used it I got good service, but the shipping costs etc were a big OTT I thought. Of course it depends on the shop. Can find lots of things on there though - worth a peek if you can read Japanese. Link to post Share on other sites
pk 0 Posted May 27, 2003 Share Posted May 27, 2003 Used it a few times, good for finding stuff you cant find on amazon. Link to post Share on other sites
akibun 0 Posted May 28, 2003 Share Posted May 28, 2003 I think it is good for finding somethings, but some of the hp is very poor. Link to post Share on other sites
scouser 4 Posted May 28, 2003 Share Posted May 28, 2003 I bit difficult to understand if your J-go isnt that good Link to post Share on other sites
brit-gob 9 Posted May 29, 2003 Share Posted May 29, 2003 I've bought some hard-to-find things on rakuten, with a bit of help from my ladyfriend. It's a good idea and you can find all sorts on there if you look . Link to post Share on other sites
big-will 7 Posted May 29, 2003 Share Posted May 29, 2003 Used it too - good on the whole but theres some dreadful sites on there, so difficult to see etc (though thats pretty much a deal with normal J sites anyway hey?) Link to post Share on other sites
BagOfCrisps 24 Posted May 29, 2003 Share Posted May 29, 2003 I reckon the Japanese used on these is just a little above my current skill level Link to post Share on other sites

cheeseman 1 Posted May 30, 2003 Share Posted May 30, 2003 There are some cheese shops on there, enabling all us cheesefans to get their imported cheese fixes even here in Japan! Link to post Share on other sites
