JediAmoeba Posted October 16, 2023 Posted October 16, 2023 On Amazon they have Daiwa Zillions for $200-$211. I was a bit skeptical but ordered 2 and got them in less than a week. These are the made in Japan models... 5 Quote
Super User AlabamaSpothunter Posted October 16, 2023 Super User Posted October 16, 2023 $200-210 total, all taxes and shipped? I think they are currently about $220 total from Digitaka. 1 Quote

txchaser Posted October 18, 2023 Posted October 18, 2023 That's awesome. I feel bad about the yen getting crushed but thanks for the discount. If your state charges sales tax it may be a better deal on amazon.co.jp vs amazon.com. The former is usually 2500 yen for shipping, but the latter will tag you for sales tax. Probably easier to return buying from amazon US. Quote
Super User AlabamaSpothunter Posted October 18, 2023 Super User Posted October 18, 2023 When I just tried to see what one would cost on Amazon.jp.....my final total on a right hand 7.1 model was 224.48. Without shipping it would have been the price you quoted, but I couldn't get free shipping. Digitaka is 229.49 With as much trust as I have in Digitaka, I might as well stay loyal to them. 5 Quote

You can actually buy them from amazon.com now - ie the US site. https://www.amazon.com/Daiwa-Gillion-1000H-Right-Handle/dp/B08NP3F5MV/ 1 Quote
