Yahoo Auction Service Fees

So after some planning i have decided on some set service fees to give everyone a ball park idea on how much things will cost if you use me as a middle man for Yahoo Auctions Japan
please remember that this is just a ball park figure and nothing is set in stone

Service Fee:
Small Items: oil caps, shift knobs, etc
service fee: $10

Medium items: intakes, steering wheels, etc
service fee: $25-30

Large items: rims, exhausts etc.
service fee: $65-95

Other fees:
shipping from seller to my location varies between $10(small items: shift knobs etc) to $65 (rims)
paypal fees: varies

Shipping fees:
Small items can be shipped air mail or EMS (usually double the price of airmail but comes with tracking number and insurance)

Medium to Large items will ALL be shipped ems

you can view EMS rates here:

General examples:
Steering wheel average shipping: Y3500
Cat back exhaust: Y12000-17000
Rims:
13 inch:Y35000-40000
14 inch:Y40000-47500
15 inch:Y45000-50000

Currency Conversion:
(this is the BANK currency conversion which is always crappier than the actual conversion)
as of right now it is around Y100 =$0.80


How to calculate everything:
Example:
Steering wheel price Y5000
Shipping to my location Y1800
Shipping to you Y3500

Total in Yen: Y10300

Convert to USD: $123.60
Paypal fees: $5
Service fee: $25

Total Cost: $153.60

Payment:
i take payment in full BEFORE i bid for the item, if you win i take the money and refund you any amount that you overpaid (IE if an auction ended at $250 but you paid $300 i would refund you the $50). If you lose the auction i just refund and you get 100% (including fees) back.

  1. Would you sort out stuff to be shipped to the UK for me?

  2. I think checking your car wheels & tires regularly is important because wheels & tires requires a proper maintenance.
