Lunch or dinner tomorrow or thursday.

I've never used my CC outside of the US of A.

Please educate me cause im a complete retard.

Am I going to incur some kind of international transaction fee?

or would i just get charged the amount according to the exchange rate

21000 yen deminz = 194 USD?!

Taking weekly trips to kabukicho and kawasaki = pwning me.

I'll e-mail you and gonexgrey tonight about dinner thursday.

Depends on the card.

I have a citibank card and they take a commission from the exchange rate.

The charge will show up on your balance sheet in (converted) dollars.

Isetan honors international cards; I've bought shit using my US CC there.

I think u will just get charged the exchange rate. Plus they won't charge your account for 2 weeks, LOL. Japan is the only place on earth using those carbon copy swiping things for credit cards still.

it takes waaaaaay more than 2 weeks to get charged. Shit fucked me over really badly (kinda my fault, but still).

you'll incur a transaction fee. it's nominal.. like $10 for $500 from my experience

otherwise just the exchange rate

i've had various experiences with using my us card.. some stores won't take it unless they know you, some ask to see your passport and shit.. and sometimes it works immediately and other times it takes some stupid amount of time because they don't know what to do with it

also isetan charged me double on a purchase once because the sa had no idea what she was doing..

I always got charged like $25 transaction fee or they’d give me a horrible exchange rate plus $10 fee.

If you got a check card/debit card with a Visa, etc logo on it just go over to a post office ATM and withdraw money theres no charge. You might have to call your bank first though and make sure they know your traveling, I got mine blocked one time.

Depending on your CC company, it can be anywhere from 0 to 5% (Visa/MasterCard charges 1%, your bank might have a fee as well)

Capital One is the only card that does not charge exchange fee, (they absorb the visa/mc charges as well)

so instead of 107 to the dollar it'll range from 105.93 to 101.65

Thanks for the insights, but seriously is it that difficult to find a small decent job in Japan? whether the economy is good or not, a few of my friends who live in Japan right now say it's not too hard to start off, its finding the job you want after that can be a challenge due to the language barrier..
