Available for pre-order on Amazon Japan - 4,900 YEN!!!! (before shipping)

That IS Expensive!

 

[EastCoast]

That IS Expensive!

I find JP tends to fluctuate prices without warning, so who knows, tomorrow it could be down under 2,000 YEN. Although, this title is almost certain to sell out, so maybe not.

I would probably grab this if the price were much lower.

Thanks for the link . I couldn't have figured it out otherwise.

Really like the Black Granite.

For a moment I though you had taken the pictures in my kitchen.

We have the same work tops.

Thanks . Yeah right, the work top in my study/work area is black granite. Nice observation BTW

 

[Researcher]

Is that true mate ? Because then I would get it asap.

I ask because there was someone who mentioned that the JP version would be the rarest and the hardest to get. If I'm able to place the post, I'll link it here.

Mate, honestly speaking, your guess would be as good as mine on this one. Both steels would have their merits, and steels from JBHiFi have been known to fetch good resale prices over time as well. Take your pick

TC has a GB open for the Aussie release right now, if you are interested

Thanks for letting me know, buddy . And I think you are right there. Only time will tell which one is the most premium. But at least JBHiFi can be sold for a good price even if it doesn't make it to the list , so that's one thing we need not worry about .

Guys I'm holding out for Japan. As much as I like JBHiFi I'm a sucker for those Japan Steels.

Mine finally arrived yesterday from YesAsia. Not shipped in a box, but was well bubble-wrapped, so it appears there is/was no damage.

Certainly is a nice looking steel - too nice to open! Good thing I have the HK version coming...or maybe I should just get a 2nd TW

Congratulations mate . I would suggest you get a Korean instead of the 2nd TW ......or get the ultimate JP one ...I plan to get it if the price goes down.

Yeah, keep thinking about the KR - surprised it is still available at relatively cheap prices, even on Ebay. Noticed the pre-order price of JP version dropped a few Yen again today; might have to go for that yet!

Bingo, I noticed that too - The price drop . Now if only the shipping was cheaper .

Any idea on the shipping rates of HMV Japan BTW?

Brutal as well, but I can't remember the actual - and I believe they don't remove the VAT like Amazon does.

I've ordered from Amazon JP before and if you order 3 or more items, the total cost doesn't feel quite as bad as the cost for just one - so just order 3 x this title

 

[Parkman]

Shame the films a load of rubbish. I doubt any version will be sought after or worth anything on this one.

That's a good idea . 2300 Yen for the first and 300 for every additional. It's like you pay shipping for 2 and the 3rd one is almost free as compared to the shipping paid for just 2 (per unit shipping cost).
