Akihabara? I think the only trouble you'll have is finding somewhere that doesn't sell keyboards...

Clevery is definitely the best one in Akihabara. For deals you have to search around though.
T-Zone DIY Shop (which is close by) has a decent selection (and some good deals).
SofMap has a good selection as well (the one close to Clevery as there are many of them...).

Yodabashi Camera always has a selection of mechanical boards (been to the one in Osaka, Akihabara and Sapporo).
