MCM, Brazilian + Japanese Estate Sale Links (from $1)
please take away my wallet
My first auction post of 2025! I hope everyone has had a great start to their new year :)
If you’re new, here are some basics:
It depends on the lot, but most bids start at $1. I suggest making an account, setting an alarm, and waiting until the last day to bid. This particular site’s auctions are a bit different. Five minutes are always added after the last bid at the end of an auction - this allows the seller to generate the highest sale price, which is a little frustrating, but it’s also less stressful as a buyer! Some sales end quickly, some drag on forever. I like to decide on the highest price I’ll pay before I start bidding so dopamine doesn’t get the best of me ;)
Most of these finds are on the east coast, but if you aren’t local, you could schedule a Uship delivery. I like to list on their site and wait for delivery bids. Make sure you read the reviews!
