I'm not familiar with japanese at all. Could anybody tell me the cost of the book plus the shipping to Spain? It's 6,285 JPJ plus I dont understand how much for the shipping.
Thank you for your help!

I think that you mean JPY ( Japan yen ). 6285 JPY would be around 45-50 Euro ( 100 yen it's like 0,76 euro or smth like that ). Are you sure you checked well the price ? that's quite expencive, I checked it and it says 2400 yen which would be like 18 euro, thats reasonable....The shipping costs depends on where you buy it.

( Yo creo que has mirado el precio mal, si no, es muy caro...)

If you order it through Amazon, shipping costs would be around 34-37  Euro, as long as I know. Maybe I'm wrong, but that's how it was the last time I checked it ( but it was 4 years ago so... :P)

Yes, thank you, I meant japan yen.
I only can figure out that price, 6,285 yen. Here:
https://www.amazon.co.jp/gp/offer-listing/4760905073/ref=dp_olp_used_mbc?ie=UTF8&condition=used
I tried to create an account and it only allowed me to enter a japanese adress, all quite strange
I think, I give up!
Thanks for your help

There's no way I pay that amount for only a score, my situation is not good at the moment.
Thank you for your help

It would be reasonable if it was the total price including shipping costs, but if it only let you put japanese adress... Amazon delivers products to all around the world, but only articles which are exclusively sold by Amazon itself, not by sales associates, so this product ( the sheets ) may not be sold by Amazon itself...I dont really know, sorry that I couldnt help you !

Dont give up ! Maybe someone knows a way hehe :P

Beautiful prelude indeed, by the way

Yes, I have an account in amazon Spain and UK. But the japanese  coudnt recognise it . So I tried a new one, but I couldnt. I think what you mentioned is the reason why.
Yes the prelude it's really nice. But it's ridiculous to pay such an amount of money.

Have you found the sheet music? I know the post is 5 years ago. I've just found your post. I have this book (I'm Japanese! ) and maybe I can help you, if you still would like to have it.

Like the OP I'm also very much interested in Akutagawa's "Préludes", could I PM you?
