Good thing my intuition told me to buy through PayPal and to pay the extra 500 yen for their standard plan. Granted, I bought a console and not cards, but still, this video is very helpful! It's a shame they dont take care of their customers when scammed! If what I purchased does not come, then i suppose I can just get my money back through paypal. At that point, I'll take the L and never buy from buyee again

Yep avoid Buyee. Theres a good percentage of sellers who are actually legit. But i had the exact same issue. Awesome looking poncho pikachu card which turned out to be a fake. Nowhere says its a fake or rep card and during the bidding phase there is a guy on the other end (im assuming the seller) who will continue to outbid you until the price is what he's happy with and then he will stop bidding (since theres an automatic refresh system that will continue to add another 5 minutes if another bid is placed after the 5minute countdown). Honestly for a country with the kind reputation it has there is just as many scammers as any other country. You can't even delete your card details off the website nor do they have an account deletion option just to lock people in more. It ain't worth the headache, buy from local sellers for the $20 more. trust me you end up paying $150 for shipping anyway.

I love collecting Japanese but yes the risks are real and eventually you will have a problem. No easy answer- if you want these products sometimes better to pay premium from sellers in NAmerica at least your protected.

I just got scammed for a couple cards. The person had really high feedback with numbers so I assumed they were reputable. I later find out I was scammed and saw the all the positive reviews were from buyee with all the negative ones were from other buyers (not buyee). I told them about this and other problems they have so they can fix but they also told me to “go fuck myself”. So thanks for the video I’m definitely contacting PayPal after this.

They're shipping and site is very misleading af they full of shit if you don't use an valid payment site they don't even tell u about extra shipping they had it as free but trying to get you with 30 dollars shipping.

I just made a bidding for 2 auctions and then i saw this video and im really scared that the shipping will cost hundrets of dollars

Buyee tracks IP addresses and saves users info (name, address, ect.) Of course Japanese law is different than US law and everywhere else. Information kept by sites/apps should be illegal.

I just paid $178 for shipping fee.. 😂 for just less than 100g keyrings.
Didn't expected shipping cost like that much 😢 I should watch this video earlier.

7:38 I had the same problem fake card scammer from Japan, my experience they rip people off more than any county I have dealt with..
Buyee has no protection and you will have to force them to give you a refund

Hi, good video, thanks, but I would like to ask you, a few weeks ago, I bought a display case of cards. When they arrived, some boxes were empty, and all the booster packs were weighed. I got a full refund through PayPal, but now Buyee is sending emails saying if I don't pay on May 07, they will take legal action. Is that possible? That's why I won the dispute in PayPal because I have proof of everything. Thank you for your time

Hey brother do you know how to return item from buyee Mercari pls help brother i got a fake sweater

[zjaranyjoe]

How about buying sealed booster box from Buyee?

[ScottE-]

Anytime I hear something like this and think "it sounds a little too good to be true". And often times that would be the case.

[phillip]

Just happened to me today for two purchases!. Did you have to provide evidence why the cards are fake? Under buyee's rules they state they do not authenticate items makes me nervouse that I won't get my $ back.

[pablosarrabbia]

Cold turkey i stopped buying on yahoo auctions or mercari, I'll stick with real shops only

[VolkaiGaming]

I have a crazy story with Buyee and being scammed. End of the story though, luckily got all my money (almost) back due to my credit card company, but banned from Buyee completely.

[ProfessorOakYouTube]

That’s freaking awful. Makes me never want to use it 😩

[jessemartin]

Buyee... really sucks for raw cards only buy graded cards

[mugekuge]

Should post a list of accounts that you recommend to buy from and not to buy from. That way it will help good ones with their business
