I don't know how the prices fair compared to other places in Japan but it's a lot cheaper as an American since the dollar is a lot stronger. I only really looked at the price for the switches I bought. They have a website with all their products listed. You can only buy switches in packs online but at the store you can buy the exact amount you want.
Visited Yushakobo keyboard shop while I was in Tokyo.
​
The shop was quite small but the filled with all sorts of keyboards and parts. Customers ranged from complete novices to enthusiasts with multiple boards. A lot of them were foreigners. I was there to purchase some Polia switches for my frankenstien project and met an older couple at the checkout who didn't speak Japanese and were struggling to find the parts that their child back home wanted. I went through the list and helped them pick out the things they were looking for. Saved them from purchasing the wrong items and they were very happy to be able to buy the gifts.
​
While there, I met another person who was visiting from the same city I came from. A new keyboard enthusiast who was insterested in building a similar shop. He invited me for coffee and I helped explain a lot of things about the community, groupbuys, and personal experience. His aim was to setup a place where new people could come and try out all of the different keyboard parts and learn how to build without any prior experience.
​
The shop was a very fun experience, I got to see a lot of keycaps and unique keyboards I haven't seen before. The shop owner was very friendly and was helping everyone find what they were looking for. If you ever visit Tokyo, I highly recommend stopping by.
