I can't comment from direct personal experience (consider this a friendly 'bump', if nothing more), however... Real McCoys are considered to be among the very best of the A2 repros if, as you say, very expensive. Obviously it's always going to cost more buying internationally than locally, but Japanese jackets will always be a touch more expensive to begin with: as I understand it, to the Japanese collector, part of the value of a repro lies in the high price paid.

If you're looking atthe very high end of A2s, though, and you're not tied to one specific brand, I'd definitely check out Goodwear - John's stuff seems to be pretty much unanimously viewed as the best available by the hardcore A2 crowd these days.
