Bijou! Not only was this video helpful to new people, it was even helpful to me who used a proxy server once and was scared to do it again because I forgot how it worked. Lol. Thank you for this video! It's so inspiring every time to see you so comfortable with your obsessions. I admit I have been feeling some unwarranted "shame" for liking some of this stuff because I've gotten older. Though your definitely not older like me but your videos make me feel safe in liking magical girl anime no matter what. ❤
I've recently gotten into the Lolita fashion style, and since there are only a few indie stores based in America, I often have to buy from Asia. So, this is very helpful!
ok it's confirmed you are my favorite TH-camr, oh at first I watched a video I said to myself ok it's a TH-camr that I like nothing else but there I can't stop watching it your videos are just so cool and incredible!!
BIJOU! I loved hamtaro too, they were some bad little rodents lmao. But this video came at a perfect time I’ve been wanting to get more otome and maybe atelier merch and really didn’t know where to start other than FB marketplace, mercari, and depop so thank you! Your vids are great and I see you’re watching utena, I started it but never finished so now I’m a little more motivated to pick it back up.
Depop and FB marketplace are good stops too sometimes! I found one of my holy grails on depop randomly one day lmao every so often there's a good find!
Personally I have used eBay so many times for my magical girl items. (Most of the items I have gotten are from eBay.) Yes they are pretty expensive, but they usually have great service. Also from what I know, some people list the items they’re selling on multiple different websites. (I had an item on eBay I wanted to buy that I couldn’t buy because someone else bought it on a different website.) But yeah I definitely understand using a proxies service if you don’t want to pay the expensive prices on eBay or other websites like that.
It's understandable when it's the same seller, but it gets tricky when the price is doubled and tripled on there, so I generally stay away. I'm glad to hear it's not all bad!
I remember watching Saint Tail back in Middle School! I really enjoyed it and a actually have a Nendroid of Saint Tail! Also you have convinced me to try using proxys again, thanks!
I couldn't help but notice your Haikyuu collection too! Are you excited for the movie next month? I'm so ready to see some of the iconic manga scenes finally animated
Omg I already adore your channel and I’ve only watched two vids!!! ❤❤❤❤ it’s so refreshing to find such a wholesome and fun place to watch someone chat about something they love!!! I happily subscribed!! ❤❤ Loved this vid, it’ll be very helpful for if I try to buy merch!!! Thank you!!! ❤❤❤
The Bijou plush is soo cute, i love and miss Hamutaro so much 😭 I was a big fan of HamHam Heartbreak on GBA when i was little (Love Spat & Harmony so much, they were so silly) Your vlog is so cozy, i love watching it after work, cant wait for your next vid 💖 (Ngl you make me want to rewatch Saint Tail aha)
Bijou! Yet another lovely vlog! Thanks so much for the video! I’ve only ever gotten stuff off of ebay & mercari US! So this is VERY helpful for me! And now I get to use your affiliate code n stuff! Enjoy your week!
I can totally relate! Proxies seemed so intimidating because I didn't understand what they were and figure collectors explained it in such a complicated way so I just avoided them completely😅 but seeing that you recommend zenmarket and you were in the same boat, I'll definitely try it one day!
thank you so so much i finally ordered the tropical rouge compact after 3 years of dreaming about one day getting it for a reasonable price😭(the 800 yen code will also come in super helpful at shipping thx)
Bijou 🎉 ! Now i want shrimp 🍤 lol. For Precure merch, if you haven't tried it i recommend Mandarake. I've been shopping there for years, it has fueled my collection haha. Great video, so relaxing and cute!
uwaa i love your vids!! i have been buying from korea and japan for years and this was honestly a great explanation of it!! i was just telling a good friend of mine how much i love bijou too and now i'm... considering collecting... for hamtaro goodies. lol but anyways!! i hope you're able to get all the goodies you want :3
I use buyee as a proxy! (Or is it buuye? I forget haha) Pricing for shipping can be a bit but I've gotten a nice bundle before for like 23 Cad and it was great service!! Been meaning to use zenmarker too though:)
Wait, so zenmarket also works outside of the US? I had a massive fail when I tried so I never touched it 😅 I'll need to get back in it then! Fun fact : the contest merch is directly sourced from Japan, the seller went there and bought as much as he could!
Hi I was wondering if you knew what doorzo is~? I've seen a bunch of cute stuff on there too and it is a proy website, but I'm too scared to order anything although it looks somewhat legit.
If there are two listings, one on Mercari JP and one on eBay with the same pictures but different seller names and one is half the price of the other, how do you know which one is legit and which one is a scam? Is it possible that it’s the same seller but with a different name?
Omg Hamtaro yess!!!! So loving this vlog! (also hi, I'm not sure you checked but I've sent you on discord the tracking number for the package, it is currently in transit! Also you may have unfortunately a bit of customs to clear even though I prepaid already, but like I said I'll reimburse you afterwards ^^)
Girl, you must know that whenever I try to buy something there is a 50/50 chance that something goes wrong, no matter what it is, or on what website it is. I think it's somw kind of curse. But I will try to use that dam proxy service and if it works for me, just know that it's gona be your fault if I die burried under magical girl items. (I'm jocking, I'm jocking ofcourse 😂)
What do you do as a job? I’m curious if TH-cam is your only income or there’s other things? I really never buy things for myself because I’m afraid of losing money, but I make money and can just never do anything with it because I stifle myself - and what’s the point in working if I can’t make myself happy?
bijou plush awww ;w; I wish here where i lived it would be easier to order stuff from japan. Here in germany, EVERY package will run into customs shenanigans. So annoying and expensive :c
OMG I did not expect a shoutout today when I sat down to watch this! omggg, thank you so much!!!
WAHH I forgot to give you a heads up beforehand lol!!! Of course 🥹💕🌷
AAA i used to love hamtaro too!! i remember trying to draw him with a how to draw manga book lolz!!
Literally the Hamtaro eyes were some of the first anime eyes I ever drew lmao 💀
@@doreimani FRRR

@@doreimani yeah. The only thing that bothers me about ebay is the doubled price.

I love itttt, I remember hearing about the Nendoroid recently! No problem :) 💕

Hello!, I'm new to buying things from Japan such as on Mercari is the Proxie Service Doorzo good to use?
Bijou 🎉 ! Now i want shrimp 🍤 lol. For Precure merch, if you haven't tried it i recommend Mandarake. I've been shopping there for years, it has fueled my collection haha. Great video, so relaxing and cute!
yuh get your bag magical woman
uwaa i love your vids!! i have been buying from korea and japan for years and this was honestly a great explanation of it!! i was just telling a good friend of mine how much i love bijou too and now i'm... considering collecting... for hamtaro goodies. lol
but anyways!! i hope you're able to get all the goodies you want :3
Omg the stars aligned here, Hamtaro seems to have new goods every once in a while, it's all so cute 🥹🩵
One thing I gotta love about Mercari JP is that they aren't nearly as greedy as sellers on Mercari USA or any secondhand service in the USA 😅
WAIT YOU GOT COMET MERCH!? No one ever mentions her that makes me so happy!!
I use buyee as a proxy! (Or is it buuye? I forget haha) Pricing for shipping can be a bit but I've gotten a nice bundle before for like 23 Cad and it was great service!! Been meaning to use zenmarker too though:)
Wait, so zenmarket also works outside of the US? I had a massive fail when I tried so I never touched it 😅 I'll need to get back in it then!

Hi I was wondering if you knew what doorzo is~? I've seen a bunch of cute stuff on there too and it is a proy website, but I'm too scared to order anything although it looks somewhat legit.
I've never heard of it, so I can't recommend a site I've never used before. Try looking up customer reviews on reddit!
If there are two listings, one on Mercari JP and one on eBay with the same pictures but different seller names and one is half the price of the other, how do you know which one is legit and which one is a scam? Is it possible that it’s the same seller but with a different name?
I also have a cat named momo! 🎀🫶🏽
Omg Hamtaro yess!!!! So loving this vlog!

How long does it takes to the packages to arrive most of the time ?
Depends on the method of shipping you choose! Some are 2-6 days while others are as long as 4 weeks+
HIIII ⭐️🌸
🥰🌟
I wish I watched this video before I bought Go Princess Precure merch on eBay 😅. I think I got scammed lowkey
Oh nauuuurrrr 😭 😭
i also went from vegan to vegetarian to eating chicken & fish
bijou!
