Japan Who really is a member here living in Japan?

Seen a lot of you carrying the Jap flag icon but lives elsewhere or wannabes! But who really lives in Japan at the moment? I need a new contact friend from Japan to do small business from time to time.

Maybe you should spell out Japanese or put a "." Next to Jap. (Note: I shortened it with a period so it's not to be a slur) so you don't offend.

Correct. Another acceptable abbreviation is JP or JPN

Not me however I could go for some Japanese cuisine right about now. Not sure why you need someone in Japan, you can get most stuff online. Perhaps if you were looking for Japan convention exclusives or used but as long as you keep on top of things you can get First Press Exclusives.

Hey, I'm passing through Narita and was wondering if there are any shops in the terminal that sell Japenese Blu's?

there are third party services for us gaijin not in japan.

I would be buying posters, books and CDs all the time if it was easy for me (services are complicated!) easy for the person the other end (remember how much effort eBay us for yourself!) and especially if it didn't all add up to be expensive because of all the goodies you can get there than nobody sells as reasonably priced elsewhere (Japanese folk buy cheap on YAJ & sell at huge profit on eBay if they can speak English & have the knowledge of what's wanted).

I bought Nausicaa for about $60 if you take into account the current FX.
