Buying Groupset in Japan?
I will be visiting Japan later this year. Does anyone know if groupsets can be purchased for less overseas? In other countries?

The cheapest 105 (5600 series), ultegra, dura ace, and XT/XTR stuff I have seen for sale is located in Singapore. There is one guy on ebay with a very good feedback record selling stuff like Saint 135 44/32/22 175mm cranksets for $180 + 25 shipping.

if you're in singapore, take a trip north to malaysia. parts here are far cheaper than singapore. i managed to buy a 10sp ultegra groupset for around 600USD.

I bought a Trek 1500 "ultrega groupset including pedal" with only USD 1570 in Malaysia. Trek bike is about 20% cheaper in Malaysia compare to USA but Cannondale is about 30% more expensive in Malaysia

this guy in mainland china (with a very good feedback rating) is selling all sorts of stuff cheaper than the USA. I bet you could get prices even better than this if you talked to a bike shop in the Guangzhou/Shenzhen in person.
