Shipping from Japan
Anyone have any idea how much it would cost to ship a frame from Japan to the east coast?
I have a cousin who's lived in Tokyo for years, and was just recently talking to him about maybe getting one of the Panasonic frames from their site. I have a feeling that even with shipping, it'll be a lot cheaper than any store here.

It will be about $85 USD insured/tracked with EMS courier 4-5 days to east coast. That is including buying bubble wrap (puchi puchi), tape and whatever else, and paying for the US$1200 insurance or whatever amount you choose. Do it all at the Yubin Kyoku (japan post).

Alright, thanks. Paying around $750 for a Panasonic the exact size and color I want sure beats going to a shop and paying $$$$$ for one.
