Stay away from TCV, their business model is pretty simple, they have no actual car inventory, they advertise for several Japanese used car businesses, they don't keep their listing updated, so the car that you agree to purchase may already have been sold but they pressure you to pay by international wire transfer within 48 hours, once they have your money they contact you to say the car you selected isn't available and then you argue back and forth with them for the next few weeks or months while they tell you to apply the funds you've already paid to another listing, and all the while they ignore your requests for a refund. I opened a fraud report with my bank, my bank contacted their bank who recommended that I leave the fraud report in place until they issue the refund, during this time they repeatedly insisted that they couldn't refund without me lifting the fraud report, which their own bank (Sumitomo Mitsui) said was untrue. Do yourself a favor and avoid TCV, I just got my refund from their bank (minus about $60USD for the transfer fee), their own bank refunded me while they wouldn't.
