Yahoo Shopping — new goods from Japan at fixed prices

What Yahoo Shopping is and what people buy there
Yahoo Shopping is a large marketplace of new goods from Japanese stores, operated by LY Corporation. In October 2022 it merged with PayPay Mall into a single service: public figures cite 400M+ product listings and over ¥2.3 trillion in annual turnover — among Japan's top three e-commerce platforms alongside Rakuten and Amazon Japan.
Unlike auctions, everything sells at a fixed price — convenient when you want a brand-new item and a predictable purchase. The range is everyday: cosmetics and skincare, clothing and shoes, electronics and gadgets, home, sports and hobby goods, baby products, food and snacks.
How to order on Yahoo Shopping with Maketto

Honest about price
The item price and our fee (10%, minimum ¥1,000 — for the whole service: purchase, warehousing, inspection, seller communication and shipping) are shown upfront. International shipping depends on weight and destination — estimate it on the calculator on the homepage; exact weight is known once the item reaches the warehouse. Combine several orders into one parcel — especially handy for everyday goods bought across different stores.
Yahoo Shopping specifics
- Individual stores, not one warehouse: like Rakuten, Yahoo Shopping is a front for many independent stores. Each has its own dispatch times, packaging and rules.
- Fixed prices, no bidding — the price is the price. Stores run their own promos and discounts.
- New goods with seller warranty — more predictable than used auction lots, but with fewer one-of-a-kind bargains than Yahoo Auctions.
- Shipping restrictions: cosmetics, aerosols, liquids and batteries may fall under carrier limits — message the manager about anything borderline.
