RE: NEC-HE-shrine Japan shopping...

From Paul England <xxxxxx@mail.utexas.edu>
Date
Considering the population of Tokyo (working population anyway) is like 4x
that of Osaka, there are tons more buyers. More sellers, true, but there's a
lot of stores to choose to sell to, and Yahoo Japan of course.  I just think
it's harder for stores to keep stuff in stock in Tokyo, hence, the high
prices.  Medialand hasn't gotten jack shit in in a LOOONG time.  Trader gets
some decent things every now and again which I usually nab. Got my Metal
Slug there a few weeks ago.
