DOKODEMO Japanese Marketplace

This app has such great potential. It allows products from Japan to reach consumers all around the world. But it has a many flaws. The app runs extremely slow, and randomly turns from English to Japanese. The shipping is outrageous. I wish they just had a standard amount for shipping instead of basing it on weight. (for example, standard shipping for all orders on Stylevana is 6$) they also do not have any promotions that allow free shipping if your purchase exceeds a certain amount. (for example, orders $50+ =free shipping) You should not have to pay the shipping from different sellers. Consumer shouldn’t have to buy directly from the sellers on DOKODEMO. DOKODEMO should be the third party between the sellers in the consumers. If DOKODEMO fixed these things I would happily buy from them, but until then I’ll have to take my business elsewhere.

I’d love to be able to check out from one shop when my cart has items from different shops. I want to keep the items in the cart for the shops I’m not ready to check out yet, instead the cart combines all the items from all the shops and I either have to check out all items or delete items I’m not ready to check out yet. Also I’d like to be able to edit favorites, to move them up and down or group them in smaller folders and not to keep scrolling all the way to the bottom of list. And also to add in a button to click to specific page and not always have to scroll down to the bottom of each page and can only go to the next 1 or 2 page at a time. There also has to be page buttons at top and bottom of page. Thank you

Now, yes shipping is slow, however I have ordered from other Japan based shops and the shipping is delayed across the board because of a typhoon. Once it got better both of my shipments were processed quickly when in customs. Most of the time shippers have little to no control of how long shipments may sit in customs. The interface could be a little better, and the variety could be better. I’ve had no problems. I do wish there was an easier way to just browse for things and I’d love to see some more Japanese clothing brands like milkfed on here
