Roger, I used the phrase "for some reason" because I am of the opinion that Celga became this forum's preferred service as much through chance as merit. Skullbrain members have good reasons for choosing to use Celga, but I am going to encourage them to explore their options because I don't think Celga should be crowned king just yet.

Thanks for clarifying.

SMJ is a very competent service. It is automated, so your bid appears instantly but if you'd like to cancel a bid or add money to your deposit, you have to wait for 2pm central for the guys to update the site. The transfer rate is xe.com -4. No complaints and they're just marginally cheaper than Celga. I don't know about the fees for stuff above the low to mid teens (under 20,000 yen). I don't talk about it because no one else uses it for SB toys really, and when I occasionally rock YJA I wan't to atleast be able to be outbid by someone than not be able to bid because another SMJ user is after the same piece. It is mostly for cells and anime stuff, they have a good amount of feedback on yja, mostly non kaiju i believe.
