kochj,

China's Currency is the Yuan.

Japan's Currency is the YEN.

In school you would have been taught this!




The REASON the PRICE has increased is because the US $$ is NOT worth the paper it is printed on. The US $$ is worth less than the Japanese Yen, but you know about　exchange rates in currency markets.

The reason the US $$ is worth nothing is because US Greed has screwed your economy, see this happens when CEO in the US want $200 Million Golden Handshakes for doing nothing.


So you cannot blame the Price Increase on Japan or even China, you can only blame YOUR Government for making the US $$ WEAK against the Japanese Yen!


Me I am thanking your Government, it makes US goods imported in to Japan cheaper and when I order RC Items from the US they cost me a hell of a lot less.

I hope the US $$ Stays weak as it saves me MONEY!





Have a Nice day!

From an Australian in Japan!
