    Default anyone used japamart.com?

    I saw this link over at pachiuniverse for this service that will bid, with a commission and service charge. is this more expensive that going through hiro?

    I am so tempted to buy something from YJA. good thing I live here and not there, or I'd have a really cluttered tiny apartment.

    my calculations are about $250 in shipping to get a modern machine back?

    would a cell be about $150 then?

    thx for info.

    I'm surrounded by over 200 other games and stuff, it would take me a while just to realize something new had arrived

    Update on shipping cost.
    It was actually only 140,00 yen (Kiai just refunded me the difference )

    Japamart is ok to bid on last minute small item, or cell only or frame only, NO complete machines.

    They are more expensive. Yen conversion is always $1 -> 84Yen, when the real conversion would be 91 Yen.

    The shipping by boat for cells using them is around $81-$86.

    I have 7 items ordered from them, I can list the detailed fees if someone want it. If so, I need to dig their web page because the invoice for shipping have a number attached to an other number for the auction and so on. Not the best system. If you want to have detailed cost, let me know.

    I still prefer Kiai for the cost, handling, care and so on. If it's too big, Kiai will find a way. I gaved him balls and transformers of my ordered machines and he removed them, so it's less heavy. He would probably be able to send a complete car in a box and have it weight less than 30kg
