Nowhere to buy a Realforce 87uw Uniform 45g

[fstop]

I've been looking in classified for a Realforce 87UW uniform 45g with no luck, and looking for past threads it doesn't seem like they go on sale very often.

EK is sold out till Feb 10th supposedly, and even if they come back in stock I'll get raped by taxes and shipping (it'll be about $390).

No one on here or deskauthority seems to be selling them in classified.

All the japanese auctions sites seem to only have the 87UB or 87UW-S, and even those are hard to find and will probably end up costing more than EK.

I tried emailing the direct email to buy from Japan from the Topre wiki but I get a fail to send error for the address.

Any other ideas?

Oh, and I know this sounds crazy but if I were to fly to Japan/Korea/Taiwan what price would I be able to find it for do you think? Just curious because I visit those countries often...

from?

You will be able to obtain them from Taobao, 86u 45g or 87u 45g
Not sure how much they will add up to.

Hmm that looks like a promising alternative, I'll have to see how much it will cost to get proxied. Thanks

Edit: I thought the 86u was only made in variable form and never uniform? Or is that the 86uw.

Edit: Taobao looks to be about the same as EK in the $380 range after shipping and obook fees. Blah
