you know,it is near 2 years i haven't been in japan...in tokyo,akihabara
too then...i heard by many ppl that now pce market is very little,and
price are BIG,especially in akihabara..when i was there,best places to
buy were sofmap,traders and medialand...but now sofmap is dead ( for
used games ) traders,and some other places are good..

medialand,2 years ago,was the best place for rarities,but the most
expensive too...sometimes 2 times much expensive than sofmap...

paul england,george palamara and other guys who are in japan know that
better than me
