Yahoo auctions are infamously difficult for Westerners to buy from simply because of the language barrier and the reluctance of virtually all sellers to refuse to ship internationally. Also payment for goods is a pain because Paypal is not a common feature in Asia, they have different versions which are similar, but to open an account you would also need a command of the local language to even access the website. The best advise I can give anybody is make as many friends as you can in the region because bidding services are very expensive and highly risky.

Yahoo Japan is actually not difficult to use.

1) You need the exact link that will give you the best searches for RMC in Japan.
Yahoo!¥ª¡¼¥¯¥·¥ç¥ó - RMC ¥¸¡¼¥ó¥º
RMc�尋�果- Yahoo!奇摩�賣 (From Yahoo Taiwan)

2) You can then slowly browse the fantastic list.

3) You will then need someone to bid the item for you since most sellers do not ship internationally.

4) If you have friends in Japan, get them to help you. They should be able to assist you since most Japanese should have an Yahoo Premium Account.

5) If you do not have friends in Japan, then.. you should do homework to find yourself a proxy bidder.

That's all..

Hope you have fun surfing.

I wouldn't be inclined to use Japan auctions for RMC simply because virtually all of it is Rangy Mountain Co. product and the few others that arn't are usually fake ( all be it made with selvedge, dont be caught out!).
Of course unless you know what you are buying really well, be aware that fakes exsist even on the Asian auctions. Proxy bidders are certainly an option but they would not be responsible for the item if what they received was fake from the seller, they would simply send it to you. If you can get an educated friend to purchase on your behalf, they can at least examine the goods to confirm authenticity, if there was any problem it could be returned fairly easily. Proxy bidders are also very expensive to use and there is little comeback regarding getting your cash back if it goes wrong, its not like using E bay/Paypal.

As for Abidko, read this link before proceeding!! Has anyone used Abidko service before? : Soundtrack Central Forums

That one is genuine Brian, a sort of, Fu Ra, black distressed version of your Unlimited Sifr RMCs, again without freyed pockets ( my assumption is they will be black, red line selvedge too). A nice pair, I like em too, there are other designs made like this as well, Let it bee/ Eye in the Sky is another rare design produced in black then prewashed.
