Best deputy service?
Been using Shopping Mall Japan (SMJ) since it was originally part of Anime Chaos.
The service is solid and email communication is good. Check them out and tell Nick "momo" sent you too! =)
Btw, originally also used Celga and Rinkya before they were stable. Experiences widely vary but you can research on Rubberslug forums if you want. We prefer Shopping Mall Japan.
Good luck and cheers!

Been using Rinkya all these years- the high service and commission fees are sometimes more than the item you purchased, however they are run very professional. I've received cels from Japan to the US in just a few days,
Hey guys! Thanks for your responses, they are very helpful.
I am going to give Shopping Mall Japan a try, sounds like it is pretty well respected so might as well.
I was looking into deputy services and wondering if anyone has ever tried buyee or jigsco?
Buyee I like because they charge everything in the current Yen rate, so it's actuals. When you ship though that is when you feel the fees causes that is where they put in the internal shipping fees in Japan, any taxes and then shipping to your location.
You can combine shipping if you are one of those peeps that can wait, however the shipping bill is large @_@ I combined 27 auctions once and my shipping bill was 27500 yen, but when you take the 27 auctions and divide them it costs you about $10 to get each item to the US in shipping.
Another thing to know about Buyee is the cost of the auction plus their fee which is a base 500 yen, and 10% of anything over 5000 yen, comes immediately off your credit card. However when they have a sale it is great the prices are comparable to SMJ, sometimes cheaper sometimes more. However the difference is never more than +/- 50 cents.
