Yeah, I saw that too when I was there a couple of years ago. Pretty unbelieveable to Rolexes in such a place.

Steve: those are amazing photos. I've been to China and Thailand, but never Japan, and I gotta say, that store and those displays are truly strange, even for Asia. Uniquely Japanese, in your opinion? And I join Steve(Tardis) in having to ask, are they for real.....??
best, dan |

Like Costco. A flat of TP, 700 bananas for $2.75, a new Rolex, 35 gallons of orange juice, 1/2 a cow, a Sony flatscreen, 1 Cessna, & a hottub full of peanutbutter.
My list is complete......gha |

When I visited Japan a few years back, I saw that they sold small cars in the grocery store as well.

Well, I could go some toilet paper with each sheet embossed with the Rolex Crown.
I said, sheet, not sheep and certainly not sh@#!t. |

Wooooow, the dollar sure has weakened by a lot. I remember when the exchange rate used to be about 125 yen to 1 US dollar just a few years ago...

You said it. I work for an export company and we're really feeling it. In such a short time the dollar went down from 55 to 41! That's a huge drop in revenues!
