Cheapest place to buy a JR Pass

Cheapest place to buy a JR Pass - Boyfriend and girlfriend in casual wear helping each other with unpacking car while moving in together on sunny summer day

I realize that the cost of the pass itself is fixed, in yen. However, I see that travel agents often add extra costs, in the form of "delivery fees" and "processing fees" etc ($15 for delivering a piece of paper??).

I'm going to Japan in April, so there's no need for express delivery. What's the cheapest place to order a 7-day JR Pass from?



Best Answer

I got the JR Pass online from jrailpass.com. If you buy two 14-day standard passes, shipping is free. For 7-day passes, I think you have to buy two to qualify for that discount.
