\"F1000015\"This is a list of used camera shops in Tokyo area (including Chiba and Kanagawa Prefectures) of Japan. In alphabetical order. Note that “used cameras” can also mean “classic cameras” aimed at collectors. Many of these shops also have an online store. Few of them can communicate in English, and they might not ship overseas. Besides these brick and mortar stores, we can buy used camera equipment online at Yahoo Japan Auctions<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Tokyo has an association of used camera shops called I.C.S. (Imported Camera Society)<\/a> and you can view a Japanese list of member shops<\/a> with maps. They also hold used camera fairs in Tokyo three times a year in Feb. (Matsuzaka Dept. Store in Ginza), May (Tokyu in Shibuya), and Oct. (Yurakucho). Many member shops gather to sell and show their wares at this fair. See the camera fair schedule here<\/a>. Also see the PhotoVendors FAQ<\/a>.<\/p>\n
