BUYR[removed by editor] is a legitimate retail site, but it’s very different than most and in my experience, isn’t that impressive. You enter the most you’ll pay for an item and they try to connect you with a seller offering prices under your “bid”. But even entering bids of above retail cost doesn’t guarantee a deal, because so many sellers there are offering “limited edition” products at huge markups. They promise a lot of discounts, etc, but just trying to get the $10 signup reward offered to every new customer was an exercise in frustration. After 4 days and twice as many emails, I finally gave up. Their prices are hit & miss, due primarily to their HORRIBLE search engine. If you want to scroll thru thousands of items for something that might be your size, than this is the place for you. I ordered some All Stars on Jan 20 and the order sat unfulfilled for 4 days, so I can’t comment on shipping, but 4 days handling for a pair of sneakers? In the end I purchased another pair on Amazon, which were $8 cheaper than BUYR. Sounds promising, if only they delivered on said promises. Just another shopping curiosity that doesn’t offer any real value.

I placed an order for a relatively hard to find item from Japan. I received an email that CC was charged. After 5 days, sent an email requesting an order number. After 5 more days, no reply. Went to web page and submitted web form, after another 5 days, no reply. I’m beginning to think this page has been left up and it’s still processing orders, but no one is home. I intend to discuss with CC provider after waiting the suggested 5 biz days to do so. Hopefully, I‘ll obtain a refund. AVOID JapanMania Shop!<br />

Update Jan 25: Still no replies from Japanmaniashop. CC issuer did remark that I’m not the only customer seeking a refund from them. Continue avoiding japanmaniashop.
