Dont know which model you are referring to... My camp mate got one in Kaohsiung departmental store at around 7800NT it should be around 30% cheaper than SG.

Not worth to get porter intl stuffs in sg. Over priced. I got my friend to get staff discount and after the discount, price around same as getting from Taiwan before tax rebate.

Try futaba. Authorised reseller for porter Japan. They have eshop on rakuten. Shipping by ems and super fast and good. No need go through forwarder.

Where is a good location in Tokyo to find large collection of porter bags?

Tokyu Hands beats almost every place hands down. Regret didn't get the porter heat briefcase. Still can get tax refund if buying from the major stores.

I bought most of mine from Takashimaya at Shinjuku

they have 5% discount if you pay by cash
but the tax refund of 8% will tio jiak 1.5% by Takashimaya

Almost every department store sells Porter
So if paying by card, i suggest not buying from Taka

but for comprehensive collection, you need to visit KURA CHIKA stores
go to Porter website to find the store locations

I didnt buy any from Kura Chika as the ones i want can be found at departmental stores

plus, i'm not sure whether Kura Chika can do tax refund
