      Costs can widely vary, but if you know someone locally who can buy and ship it for you - you’re only out of pocket the cost of the unit ($440), shipping ($20-30?), and GST if customs flags you (~$45).

      Still a lot better overall than $700inc locally - but you will be stuck with a JP language only model and any other restrictions that come with it.
