Today is the day I get to be another year older .... 
if anyone's in the area and wants to stop by and say hi, I'm gonna be at KatManDu between 11:30 and 12:30 hanging about for the promo Lawrence is doing. Somehow I think I may just be sitting around doing nothing ... *sigh*

why is paint going to be cheaper in japan?
everything is more expensive in japan. everything. resources and space are at a premium. plus the US dollar is not very good right now. not to mention the shipping charges and tariffs will probably make it end up costing more. good luck, i hope it works out for ya.l

The torched penny paint is originally made in japan meaning it cheaper to buy over there than it would be here where we would have to import it or get a company to mix it.
as far as shipping..it is 35 bucks but it will take up to 3 weeks to get here from the day it ships

so how does that really make it cheaper in japan?
the reason its probably costing you so much to get just one thing painted is because it takes time and time is money. Think about it. If you have a bunch of pieces that are all ready prepped for paint, it would probably cost you the same. They'd all go in the booth at the same time, instead of one grill.
