I play Magic: The Gathering, a trading card game. In Japan, there are loads of online stores where you buy cards, and sometimes the only option to pay is through bank transfer (it’s pretty normal, in case you’re wondering). This particular store has been open since 2006, and I’ve bought cards from them on and off over the last decade or so. Yesterday, they posted a message on Twitter saying that they’re going into bankruptcy. I made a couple of purchases 2 weeks ago totaling roughly ¥8000. Am I just shit out of luck? I have no idea what happens to people’s money in this situation. Can anyone chime in?
