Auction site · auctions.yahoo.co.jp

Yahoo! Auctions Japan, known in the country as Yafuoku, has been running since 1999 and carries great weight in Japanese e-commerce. Bidding is the core of the site, though some sellers set a fixed price so the item can be bought outright. The sellers are individuals and small businesses from every corner of Japan, and each listing typically shows plenty of photos, a condition grade and the seller's feedback score: useful clues before bidding on a valuable item.
For collectors it is a goldmine: Famicom and Game Boy games, Pokémon items, figures, anime merchandise, vintage toys, trading cards and sealed boxes, plus releases that never left Japan. Listings are in Japanese and prices in yen. The site is not available from the EU or the UK, and sellers rarely ship abroad, so purchases from outside Japan usually go through Japanese intermediaries who place the bids and forward the parcel.
