half OT / half...T (?)

 I agree, areas like Kichijoji or anywhere in Setagaya, etc... are places
where you might be surprised at the prices. Sometimes you also just find
things based on luck (if you're walking or driving and spot a store, go
inside, take a look).
 As far as a region free DVD player goes, you can always use your computer
or laptop for that. You can get software such as "DVD Region Free" that will
allow you to select that region you want to play; after that, just hook up
your computer to a TV and you're done.
