Crazy.No, I'm talking local prices, and postage is extra! That said, not much is selling in this economic climate. A 128k platinum //e went for $200 the other night with SS2, mouse and disk cards in it.
So the problem is that US sellers are unwilling to ship to Japan? As I'm sure you know, $20 is a middling price for a //e here, and shipping should be under $70, so it's hard to see how the market can be so out of whack... When my daughter was teaching in Japan, I found it quite easy to ship there, and relatively reasonable. -michael ******** Note new website URL ******** NadaNet and AppleCrate II for Apple II parallel computing!
