  4. ZenMarket Review 2026: The ¥800 Fee and Two Hidden Costs

    Part 4

    ZenMarket Review 2026: The ¥800 Fee and Two Hidden Costs

    ZenMarket charges ¥800 per item on Mercari and Yahoo! Auctions. Two costs never appear on the quote: a 4.99% exchange spread and a 3.5% deposit top-up, together 3.3 times the ¥800 fee on ¥30,000.

  5. Doorzo Review 2026: Is It Legit? Fees, Trustpilot, Totals

    Part 5

    Doorzo Review 2026: Is It Legit? Fees, Trustpilot, Totals

    Yes: Doorzo is legit: 4.6 on Trustpilot, the highest of any major proxy, and fees are ¥50–300 per item. The catch is the total: billing splits in two, and ¥3,300 surface mail needs an $800 order.
