I'm not sure if you know, Japan Yahoo Auction is filled with awesome ST202 and ST205 parts. The only problem is, they don't ship overseas. So I searched around, and found some companies that actually buy the stuff for you and ship to you (like a broken kind of deal I guess).

Here are some websites I stumbled upon:

http://www.goodsfromjapan.com/product/prod...me=Product-list

If anyone has more information regarding buying parts directly from Japan, please contribute!

but do they actually speak english?
or how will you communicate with the seller?

I've known about this for some time now, but read the cost, and do the whole calculation, it's too expensive for us, something that would cost oyu ~ US$130.00 in yahoo auctions, after shipping and fees you'd end up paying ~ US$230.00 depending on the item may be worth the money but most of the time it doesn't

yeah.. i've signed up with a few companies that do the same.
in the end after their charges, shipping and everything, it ends up being pretty expensive. i'll probably wait a bit more til yahoo japan auctions and ebay merge together.
