 Hi. I'm afraid it's not so effective, but TG77 is 200,000 yen in Japan.

 Now, $1 is about 150 yen, so about $1333. But I'm not sure about taxes 
 or other costs. Anyway not so cheap for me.

2398.2only 1333 ?!?PAULUS::BAUERRichard Bauer ISE Localization Center FrankfurtMon Aug 13 1990 10:039
Hi Hiro !

1333$ ?!?!?!?  1$ is roughly 1.60 DM, so that is 2132 DM, which is just a bit
more than Roland U220. Oh, if it would be like that I would buy one, but I
suspect it will be around 3300 DM, which is a lot les attractive....  :-)

But thanks anyway !!!

2398.3You should buy in Japan !TKTV20::SHINKADOACAPPELLATue Aug 14 1990 23:5125
	Hi, Richard. 

>	"Richard Bauer ISE Localization Center Frankfurt" >>>

	I'm sorry, I misunderstood you're in the states.
	Frankfurt is in Denmark, right ? I'm sorry if I'm wrong.

	I'll add more information. U-220 is 110,000 yen, so 1 dollar is
	about 150 yen now, then 733 dollars. Then 1 dollar is 1.60 DM, 
	so U-220 is about 1173 DM. 

	And also it is usual to ask discount. Well, normally 20% off.
	(Of course new one, I mean not used one.) I'll buy U-220 soon.

	So, you just pay 1705 DM for TG77 and 586 DM for U-220 in Japan.

	If you have a chance to visit Japan on business or sightseeing,
	you Should buy your favourites. I'll tell you the good shop.

	Anyway, let's save some money at first, right ?

	Thanks for your reading my poor reply.

	Yes, but they do occasionally eat Frankfurters in Denmark (ie. hot 
	dogs), so this must relate to the confusion.
