Entry level fixed gear in Japan

I used the search function, but most threads are quite old, I'm curently living in Japan and would like to find an entry level SS/FG bike. I know I can get a Critical, Vilano or pure fix from Amazon, I'm not sure if they ship to FPO/AP adresses though. I am looking to spend around 30,000 yen, I have checked Craigslist Japan and not much to be found. Are there any shops that carry entry level fixed gear bikes in the Tokyo area?

I live in Fussa and there is a place here called Booze riderz, haven't looked at their prices for bikes, just parts. There is counter attraction in Fujisawa (they have a FB) and there is Brotures in Harajuku and Yokohama (they have FB as well)

Pure fix and State deliver to APO

I'll have to check out counter attraction, I saw thier website looks like a nice shop. I was originally looking for something used, I went to the Cycli in sagamihara area but the prices were rediculous. Thanks for the help.

A quick search on Rakuten yields this bike at your price point: https://global.rakuten.com/en/store/r...tem/11haro018/ I don't know anything about it though.

Most used stuff in Japan is sold on Yahoo Auctions. You'll have better luck searching there but it's all in Japanese.
