Exploring A Book Off Super Bazaar In Tokyo Japan

Hi guys!
The other day, I stumbled upon some amazing figures and other goodies at the Ikebukuro Book Off. Intrigued, I decided to explore another renowned Book Off location. After some research, I discovered that Book Off Super Bazaar ranks among the largest second-hand stores in Japan.
In today's video, I'm taking you along on my visit to the Book Off Super Bazaar in Tachikawa City, Tokyo which is relative close to my house. Join me as we delve into the store to uncover cheap anime figures, retro games, phones, cameras, and other cool finds that might catch your interest.
I have included some prices converted from Japanese Yen to US Dollars, so please use them as a reference since the values may change over time.

I'm visiting in a few days. The OFF stores are always on my visit list. 2nd Street as well (apparel and accessories) There are better but lets leave that for you all to discover. Thrift on~

[@4kjapanspace07]

Hi! I hope you’re enjoying your stay in Japan. You seem very well-informed! Wishing you the best of luck in finding any treasures you’re looking for here. Thanks for watching I really appreciate it!

[@Goob-p6e]

i have a few questions. first, why theres so much items? i know theyre used but some of em even have boxes and seem pretty brand new. second, do people just drop em off to these stores as junk or they sell them here as well?

[@4kjapanspace07]

Hi! Here are my thoughts. From my understanding, second-hand stores in Japan are very popular because Japanese people often sell items they no longer use to free up space in their homes or to get some money back. It always surprises me how well they take care of their belongings. When they sell to second-hand stores, the products are usually in great condition. Where I come from, second-hand goods are often just junk and practically useless, but that's not the case in Japan. Some second-hand stores don’t spend much time checking all the products thoroughly, so they categorize them as 'junk.' Of course, well-known or high-value items are inspected, but usually only superficially to see if they work or not. That’s why stores like Hard Off or Book Off with 'junk goods' sections can sometimes have hidden treasures. To prove what I mean, check out my recent video, and you’ll see what I’m talking about. kzbin.info/www/bejne/pKOznH2maquEbrc Sorry for the long response, but I wanted to give you a good answer to your question. Thanks for watching!

[@Goob-p6e]

@4kjapanspace07 nah that was great, makes more sense to me now! yeah jp people are so minimalistic aint they? also, while typing this, i kinda forgot and at the same time got reminded that japan always has leading technologies so it would make sense that people would always buy newer stuffs so they dont get left behindthus the surplus of "older" tech even if its still relatively new.

[@4kjapanspace07]

Glad it made more sense now! And you’re so right, Japan is amazing when it comes to adopting new tech quickly, which is why you find so much ‘older’ stuff that’s still in great condition. It’s like a treasure trove for tech and gadgets! Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

Do I have to get a Japanese number to use transport services or will they be able to take the number of the hotel?

[@4kjapanspace07]

Hi! From my understanding, you don't need a Japanese phone number to use transport services. All you need is data or a WiFi connection. If you need to provide a phone number, you can usually use your hotel's number. I hope you find this useful! If you provide more context, I might be able to give a better answer. Thanks for watching! I wish you the best stay if you're already in Japan.

[@pattykashiwamura625]

Thank you! I love your video about Book Off! Now I'm gonna go search for it. I'm coming to Japan on Tuesday

[@4kjapanspace07]

Hi! I’m glad you liked the BOOK OFF video. I recommend you also research BOOK OFF locations near where you’re staying; it may save you some time and money. I wish you the best during your stay in Japan. It's been pretty hot here recently, so please take care of yourself when you visit.

[@ATKK86]

Are the stuffs in Bazaar Book Off cheaper than normal Book Off store? Thanks!

[@4kjapanspace07]

Hi! In my experience, Bazaar Book Off stores can sometimes have lower prices than regular Book Off, especially for bulk or clearance items. However, it varies depending on the specific items and location. It's always a good idea to check both types of stores if you're looking for the best deals. Thanks for your watching!

Did you happen to see any second hand PS Vitas for sale?

[@4kjapanspace07]

Hi! Unfortunately, I did not take the time to check if there were PS Vitas for sale. I will make sure to do that during my future visits to Book Off and Hard Off. Thanks for watching!

dude how much that shin ultraman shf figure?

[@4kjapanspace07]

Hi! I'm sorry, but I wasn't aware of this figure, so I can't provide the exact price. However, I've seen similar figures in other stores priced between 5,000 to 10,000 JPY (approximately 30 to 65 USD). I hope you find this information useful. Thanks for watching!

Is there any Sega Console?

[@4kjapanspace07]

Hi, I only found a Sega Genesis 16-bit. Thanks for watching!

[@prabhghumaan]

Bro I’m planning to visit japan should I consider buying a ps5 from this store i mean is this trustable?

[@4kjapanspace07]

Hi there! Regarding your question, I would say the following: 1) Buying second-hand items like consoles from BOOK OFF is trustworthy since they check the console and usually indicate any malfunctions or important information, such as warranty, on the price label. 2) If you have the budget, consider buying a new PS5. The current exchange rate of JPY to USD and the tax-free option can make for a good deal. 3) However, if you find a PS5 in good condition and at a good price at BOOK OFF, I recommend carefully checking the price label and its information using Google Translate. Also, ask the store staff any questions to ensure clarity. BOOK OFF also offers tax-free options, so you might find a great deal there. Sorry for the long response, but I wanted to make sure you have all the information you need for shopping in Japan 🇯🇵.
