Japan purchases


They talk about buying a converter. And name brands that we know from Japan, preowned. What do you see as possible issues? What are the risks of a converter and are they expensive? 
Has anyone really had any experience doing this… good or bad?

Yahoo Japan takes a little navigating. You have to preload money before you can bid. Have bought a couple of things there.

Had a look again at how Yahoo Japan auctions work.

You have to preload money onto your account, more than your bid amount (including Paypal fee). Money can be refunded, although you do not get the Paypal fee returned.

With the two items I won (maybe three?), postage was very reliable.
