## Important notes

Japan is below the tourist tax-free minimum, so the headline uses BicCamera's tax-included price. United States sales tax is added at checkout. Shipping is separate in the United States and Taiwan. Other Orenz Nero lead sizes are different products.

Japan tax-free eligibility, actual local sales tax, daily FX, shipping, card fees, warranty, and import charges can change the final cost.
