Where to shop for Japanese import games?

I recently got a ps3 and have been stocking up on games. I wanna get some Japanese imports as well but I realised I have no sites beyond amiami and play-asia to visit for Japanese imported games(and ebay, but can be so pricey ~.~).

For anime figures I visit amiami, hlj, hobbylink and play-asia. What are some recommended online shops to go for games?(Would need to have international shipping as available option as well)

      I just realised I forgot to mention (need international shipping). Does Amazon Japan offer international shipping :O? I've been to the regular amazon before but.... have been scared away by the monstrous shipping fees XD;(even more than ebay)

    I usually order from NCSX.com, and I ordered Fate/EXTRA from JapanVideoGames.com, so you might try there as well.

      Thank you! :)

      What should I be expected to pay for the shipping cost of a game? I hate how they always hide that information deep deep down somewhere =3=;

    sometimes lucky to see one of my local stores, Game Traders having import Jap games, i got my initial D there both ps3 and psp.

    I've bought from YesAsia in their games section making sure its JAP region (they state it).
    Other then that no where else.

    Playasia.com or yesasia.com

    the price for both of them are about the same thought sometime yesasia is cheaper and yesasia offer free shipping with order over 35-50.

    I've ordered a few import games from toysnjoys.com. I'm not sure if they offer international shipping, though you could always email them and find out.

    http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/ That's a good place to shop, though most games are not below normal retail. The search system is a bit harder to use too if you don't know exactly what you're looking for. It is definitely reliable though.
