i dont have any problems with the commissary, but the NEX has horrible prices on electronics. anything else and they are pretty good, but DVD's, games, cameras, etc are about 30 % higher than what you could find at a best buy or walmart type store, or even more online. Ive bought a dvd for 4.99 before then saw it in walmart for 20 bucks. Looking at a new digital camera now, and the NEX will be 400 bucks, and its 270 online from amazon or walmart. Problem is overseas you cant price match to 'local stores'... at least not in japan since stuff out in town is so expensive to begin with.
