Tokyokev 0 Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 Hi all Does anyone know a good 2nd hand shop for snow boards in Tokyo? Not Yahoo Auctions, but an actual store I can go into and see the stuff 'live'! Cheers TK Link to post Share on other sites
Tubby Beaver 209 Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 Find yourself a Book Off or Hard Off, there are loads of them around. They have a website as well that will show you the locations of the shops. Link to post Share on other sites
thursday 1 Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 I passed at least 3 Book Offs in Sapporo. They looked look new stuff places. My wife didn't believe me when I told her they sell used stuff. Link to post Share on other sites
RobBright 35 Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 Yeah book off, sports authority is pretty cheap at the moment too. Link to post Share on other sites
Oyuki kigan 0 Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 Forget Tokyo, that stuff is picked over and almost impossible to find anything. The gems are in the smaller cities/towms within an hour of the hills. I've seen amazingly cheap stuff and rare boards (in great condition) in Tochigi and Nagano prefectures. My girlfriend got a pretty much brand-new Santa Cruz board, boots and bindings for 3000 yen, and sold the boots and bindings for 2000 on yahoo. I've found an Option kevin sansalone in mint condition for (w bindings) for 7000 yen, and a classic Burton 7 (handpainted by Jason Brown, with bindings) for 5000. Link to post Share on other sites
SantaCruz 0 Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 Santa Cruz. Solid Link to post Share on other sites

ongd 0 Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 Besides BookOff where else could I find cheap used snowboards? I'm planning on heading down to Kanda tomorrow to go shopping. Which stores should I go to? EDIT: Book Off and Hard Off stock used snowboards?! Link to post Share on other sites

thursday 1 Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 I think there are. In the back streets. I saw some and thought, nah, I want new stuff. Some stores were also selling used rental skis. Link to post Share on other sites
RobBright 35 Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 You might be able to find some 08/09 stuff in Kanda but may have all gone now. Link to post Share on other sites
