At $1200 for one of the cheapest ones... I think I'd rather buy used...

That's actually JPY not USD. Just noticed that when you visit the link on mobile, it shows a dollar sign instead of a yen sign.

And if you don't want to order directly from Japan, you can search for search on Amazon, here is one for 20 bucks: https://www.amazon.com/Concise-Ruler-Circular-Slide-100973/d...
