What you would actually keep after fees, international shipping and FX when buying on a Japanese marketplace and selling on eBay (US/UK/DE/AU), highest first.
Sourcing is fixed to Japan and selling to overseas markets. The sell market is chosen by net proceeds, not by the highest sticker price — eBay fee rates and EMS shipping zones differ by country, so the highest-priced market is not always the most profitable.
Model pages reached from “See listings” contain advertising (affiliate) links.
"Positive days" applies the same calculation (buy the second-cheapest Japan listing, sell at the overseas lowest) to each of the last 14 days. Few days means today's number is a coincidence.

Spread is the gap between each market's lowest price (condition not matched) and excludes fees and shipping. Estimated net take is the sell-side market's lowest price minus marketplace fees and shipping (a deterministic per-market, per-weight-band model) less the buy-side lowest price — open each row for the breakdown. See the notes below the table for assumptions and disclaimers. Condition differences are not accounted for. Rows with extreme values may be mismatches (a same-named different model or an accessory) and are marked "needs review". Check actual terms on each marketplace.
Note: Reselling used goods repeatedly for profit may require a secondhand dealer license under Japanese law. recam only provides price information and is not a party to any transaction. Getting a dealer licence / Export procedure
Note: Import duties and import VAT/consumption tax are not included. The US de minimis exemption was removed in 2026, so cross-border purchases may incur duties and import taxes payable by the buyer. Rates vary by product, destination and date — confirm the actual amount with the destination customs authority and on each marketplace.
