>ZenMarket charges 500 yen for item but has free consolidation. Anything better than that?
>DHL
that's about the standard now.
Buyee is 300 yen per item
zen market and fromjapan are 500 yen per item
all have free consolidation (buyee made them free like a year ago), and all offer DHL
despite the fee being cheaper on buyee, you'll pay for that with the shipping and shorter storage time.
i use fromjapan because i don't like zenmarkets system of depositing funds, but either one is fine. They also frequently do campaigns like '10% on orders from mercari/rakuten/etc', so it might be best to wait for a promotion.

they explain it on their site. 60 days free, with each extra day being charged until you reach 90 days storage.
>I don't know how many people buy stuff and then forget about it but for me this is unacceptable
i don't think it's unreasonable. They tried the good will method, and too many people abused the system, having them hold onto the packages for an undisclosed amount of time, sometimes months past due. Fromjapan does the same thing of discarding the order after the storage period is up. Disposing of items isn't free and wastes their time and resources, so it's pretty reasonable to have a fee for that. Could be worse, amiami usually bans your entire account from using your services ever again if you cancel a single order.
More reminders that your storage time is running out would be nice, (not sure why they dont just send one 3 days before too) but other than that, i don't see much issue with it.
