Many of us get AKB48 goods through auctions, whether it's from eBay or Yahoo Japan, so it might be worthwhile discussing.
There is one rule: do NOT post links to live auctions!

- For bidding on yahoo auctions you need a deputy service. How do they work? Which ones exist? Do you have good/bad experiences with these? etc.
- Funny auctions
- Items which sold for insane amounts
- Bootleg items; want to bid on something, but not sure it is legit? Post a pic and we'll find out together.

I'll get the ball rolling.
Some sellers provide a direct translation of the item, which is pretty funny. For example:
Corridor running team - Dash first loveAnother example is the "10 years cherry" (10nen Zakura) which you'll see from time to time.
