Is TT gear cheaper in Japan? I'm going there soon for a vacation and I'd love to try Tenergy but I find it's too expensive to purchase here in Australia where it's about $95 AUD (about $68 USD).

This year they will be held from January 14th to 20th in Osaka, thats why no Japanese player will show up in the ITTF Hungarian Open. Last year, in the Men's final, Harimoto ended Mizutani's reign while Ito also won her first crown in Women's finals and also won Doubles and Mixed Doubles to be...
