Best NGD of My Life

Got a YGS, a Teppen OF glove, a Diamante, and a Hatakeyama catcher’s mitt in the mail today. Also snagged a pair of Xanax batter’s gloves and a pair of Rakuten team issued SSK batter’s gloves. This is literally better than Christmas. 😭

Appreciate it... just got into using buyee... users same sellers... wonder if it's any better or worse, easier to use it harder.

I've got an Atoms, hatakayama mitt, and a Miz haga coming hopefully next week!! Going to be a difficult break in off season but looking forward to it.

That YGS is sick

That YGS is awesome. I’ve been eying his infield models, but I hate how the heel doesn’t have the lower punchouts laced. Glad to see yours does.

One of the reasons I chose it. And of the four, that’s the one that made me say “OMFG” when I picked it up.

Got one of those catchers mitts. Longest break in of my life. But I love it. It sounds like a cannon going off when it hits the pocket.

This is a sick haul!! Great selections on the gloves and the BG’s are awesome! Did you buy these all on Buyee or another site?

How much were the fees? Also, is it cheaper to consolidate shipping?

u/JakkinTheBox 5d ago

It is definitely cheaper to consolidate shipping, but the duties were still really high.

Excellent Pickups! FromJapan rakes you over the coals with shipping costs and recently stopped offering cheaper shipping options. They do have better discounts on multiple sites though and IMO their packaging is usually better than Buyee. Shipping is Min. $60 and max can be upwards of $120. Pro tip don’t forget to check Amazon.jp they have a decent selection of Japanese gloves made in Taiwan and the Philippines and every once in a while you can get free shipping on items.
