bacon 0 Posted June 15, 2002 Share Posted June 15, 2002 Hi all, I'm new here and to Japan. I was wondering if you could tell me, when is the best time to buy new gear here - and is it possible to buy second hand anywhere? Thank you BB Link to post Share on other sites
Brain 0 Posted June 15, 2002 Share Posted June 15, 2002 If you don't mind being one season out of date - shock horror - then the best time to buy is late in the season (around late March, April) when they are selling off stock. Link to post Share on other sites
scouser 4 Posted June 16, 2002 Share Posted June 16, 2002 Prices go down almost as soon as New Year turns, going down further each month. Spring is a good time to buy. Link to post Share on other sites

oblivion 5 Posted June 18, 2002 Share Posted June 18, 2002 I got my current gear in early April of this year, at 65% off the normal price, so I'm kinda looking forward to using it in the coming season. Link to post Share on other sites
Ocean11 0 Posted June 18, 2002 Share Posted June 18, 2002 That's the problem with April purchases - they just exacerbate the pain of the wait for the next season. If you're looking for gear like boots for larger sizes, you probably need to be looking all year round. Link to post Share on other sites
LiquidX 0 Posted July 12, 2002 Share Posted July 12, 2002 Me wants new gear. New gear new gear. It's going to drive me crazy. I wonder what sexy equipment will be out there for next season. Link to post Share on other sites
