1.75 x price at ny supleme = jap price

how about that kome-hyou place in front of isetan. it's basically a ginormous pawn shop (i'd call it a department store cause it's like 8 floors).

Ragtag, jumble store, and heatwave also carry gshocks. But they are mostly collabo models e.g. bapeshock.

You could also try akihabara. There's thousands of shops selling gshocks.

[herpsky]

I still wear the gshock my grandparents bought me when i was in 2nd grade.

It's a 93 / 94 limited edition winter model or some shit.

yeah is there like a bikesdirect.co.jp? i want a cheap road bike or fixie

[herpsky]

You should get a kalavinka bike from tsukumo cycles in meguro.

[Guest jmatsu]

apparently my girl got laid.

sucks.

yeah that fuckin sux cause you b in vermont, right?

[chromesquared]

You should get a kalavinka bike from tsukumo cycles in meguro.

Ha, yeah if you wanna wait a year or so.

If you just want a cheap bike, there are little bike shops all over the place that sell (shitty) ママチャリBikes.

If you are looking for a road・fixed gear：

サイクリ（Various locations in Tokyo)

Y's (also a bunch in Tokyo, but more focused on road bikes)

Then theres all the specialty ピストｓhops like Blue Lug, Carnival, Depot, Jan, etc. but then tend to be too fucking expensive. If you can、 just pick something up off of Y! oｒ check out Mixi too, you might find something there.

Also, you can get these:

bikesdirect.co.jp

Legato is pretty good - prices are reasonable I thought - decent wine list... 20,000 for dinner for two with a fair amount of booze ...

that's the event that made me ask about legato. i might not be able to go because I need to be up early sun to go to odaiba, but if im listed im going anyway. cheapcheapcheap

do you know anything about the event itself? they keep talking about how theyre so LA underground, is it cool or not?

[salaryman]

No, just know that its new, and if it goes well it could be a continuous type thing.

I know they are publicizing it pretty hard, so there should be a good amount of people there. Will probably be on some mix and mingle cocktail loungey status rather than raging party.

[Guest jmatsu]

shiiiiiit. i wish i could go to this!!

[herpsky]

i hope that dude plays perfume all night

[renski]

Also, you can get these at Tokyu Hands

they have/had some single speed bikes there for ¥22,000.

Is it a good idea to go to Tokyo alone?

[oh snap]

Is it a good idea to go to Tokyo alone?

for vacation or work or what? i guess it depends on how much you like being by yourself and how easily you make friends

[herpsky]

if you don't know the city well, you'll only see the touristy parts of it.

it'll be fun. but not crazy fun.

[Guest Jay.]

Vacation purposes, I want to go to Japan after I graduate - but I want to go by myself.
