I work across the street from one of the largest Bic Camera stores in Japan and it is a blessing and curse. Its great to be able to audition almost anything, including some exotic Japan only models. The curse is the temptation to buy is extraordinary. The good news is that if you're patient, Bic Camera does have some amazing sales from time to time.
I"ve been living in Japan now for 4 years. Everyone is polite, considerate and everything is clean. If you know some Japanese, its a paradise.
I agree about the jeans too. None finer, and if you're a hunter, you can get them on sale.
I recently learned that New Years Day is the time to bargain hunt. Everyone has big sales to try to get rid of last year's merchandise. So my advice is if you're planning a trip, make sure you're here on New Year's Day.
Hmm... I usually time my trips to be around winter (Comiket, I don't speak Japanese but I have a cousin who lives there) but it seems that if I want to buy at bargain prices, New Years would be a better time for it. Good to know
