Where to buy iTunes Japan Gift Card?

Short version: Exchange rate is making stuff from Japan expensive. No way around it.
Long version: The reason why they have become so expensive is because there is a massive overconfidence in Japan's economy by some countries (especially the US and China) which has resulted in a huge jump in the value of the Yen. Until foreign investors stop buying trillions of Yen and the US dollar stops its decline, you will not be able to find cheap goods from Japan. Ironically, the higher the Yen goes due to foreign currency purchases, the more likely the Japanese economy is to fail as their exports can no longer compete in the international market.

White Rabbit Express is cheapest
I got one from White Rabbit express and I they're cheaper (more than $6 cheaper in some cases) than anyone else.
They also have lots of other cool Japanese stuff in their store
