It seems to me that being an expat in Japan is a win win with no downside, as one can enjoy everything that works within their society while avoiding all the social pressures the Japanese suffer.

We are planning a trip soon to investigate our insight.


Haven't been there, but anecdata from my friend who spent 2 years there says yes, but you have to probably work remotely, because Japanese companies are very rigid, hierarchical and conservative - culture clash might be hard and you might be suffocating.


Agreed. But working remotely from Japan can be a great lifestyle if you can pull it off. Almost all of Japan's downsides come from working for traditional Japanese companies.


The wages are also very low for computer programming compared to the US, despite a cost of living that is not much lower.


Exact same thing happens on eBay, at least here in the UK.


In the US too, and probably everywhere else as well.


It doesn't display the button.


Really not sure then. Maybe try toggling some of the tracker blocking in the settings and see if that changes anything.

It does show the button for me on the Android version...


Not blocking javascript.


please?


If this is really happening frequently, could it the pickers going for items they already know where to find?
