Foreigners living in Japan, do you know the service called Jimoty? Jimoty is a Japanese service that allows you to buy and sell things near where you live.
A similar service is “Mercari”, but Jimoty has no listing fees and basically receives the item by hand. You may find it scary to meet strangers and receive products, but it’s safe to say that many people are kind to use Jimoty. I have used it many times.
This article will show you how to register and buy and sell Jimoty in English. I hope you read this article and get a good item at a low price. Also, sell unnecessary items and easily earn pocket money!

こちらの商品はまだ購入できますか。 / Can I still buy this item?

直接受け取りに上がりたいのですが、待ち合わせ日時と場所をご相談できますか。 / I would like to pick it up directly. Can you discuss the date and place of the meeting?

■■駅前に●●日の▼▼時頃はいかがでしょうか。 / How about around ▼▼ on the day in front of the ■■station?

Thank you. Well then, thank you on the day.
How to sell





・Wait until an inquiry comes.
・When you receive an inquiry from a person who wants to purchase, check the delivery date, place, and amount by chat.
・Once the delivery is decided, on the chat screen Tap “Determine this person as the deliverer”
Express gratitude and break up.
There are 3 levels of evaluation, but if there are no problems with the transaction, select “good”.

Comparison with Mercari
Listing fee | Number of users (monthly) | Number of items to be exhibited | Delivery | |
Mercari | 10% of product price | 20 million people | many | Yes |
Jimoty | free | 10 million people | few | basically handed over |

A feature of Jimoty is that you can meet people in your area and buy and sell disused items. In addition, the exchange of unnecessary items is basically delivered in cash, which is useful when you want money immediately. No fees are required.
If you are afraid to meet strangers in person, it is a good idea to specify a place that is easy to see, such as a meeting place in front of a station or a big shop.
Both Mercari and Jimoty are popular services that allow you to buy and sell second-hand goods, so why not try them first and try both.
If you have any questions about how to use it, just ask me a question and I will answer it immediately. I hope your life in Japan will be fun!
I’m іmpressed, I must say. Seldоm do I encоunter a blog that’s both
equally educɑtive and engaging, and without a doubt, you’ve hit the nail on tһe hеad.
