Well again, what Bandai Japan figures are you looking for? Some are more rare and expensive than others. For instance, Movie Monser Series Jet Jaguar goes for like $10 while something like Memorial Box Godzilla 1985 can easily hit $80-$100.
G-Fest Prices, anyways, are generally balanced. Everytime I've gone, I've found figures that are the same as their list price online, some a little bit over, and some a little bit under. It really depends on the dealer and the figure in question. You more-so just have do depend on luck when buying stuff there (first find what you're looking for, then determine if there are any other dealers selling the same figure, then determine who's got the best price, all while doing this in a timely matter to prevent the figure from disappearing from stock).
