Cheap Feathers in Japan?

[The Nid Hog]

I'm in Japan for a while and I thought that this would be a good chance to stock up on Feather blades. So far, I haven't seen any particularly good prices. A package of 10 of the stainless blades sells for about ¥550-560 in all of the stores that I've visited. I guess that works out to about 58 cents a blade. Anybody know where I can pick up some at a better price while I'm here?

Not in Tokyo but 'round here they range from 410~499 yen a pack. Depending on how long you are around you can order them from www.rakuten.co.jp for 399 a pack.

Good idea. However, they could end up costing more upon returning home. Unless your using private or Military transport.

I was just going to stuff them into my checked bags--I don't think that there will be any problem if I'm not carrying them on. I'm not going to try to get enough to sell--just to keep me shaving for a while.
