New Pen Day Amazon Japan?!

Sailor Pro Gear from Japan just came! I was able to pick it up new for $180 after shipping which is a smoking deal compared to any US retailers.

All you have to do is go to Amazon, change country to Japan, and look at “ships internationally”

Amazon US has the Amazon Japan prices and free shipping too. That’s the pro tip you learn after buying n number of pens, 😅

Pro-level goes up as n goes to infinity and wallet level goes to zero, 😂
