Yes, depending on the dollar/yen exchange rate. I paid $562 last July for a Saltiga 6000Z, which retails for $799 in the US. I got mine from GinrinPeche.com Another source is JapanTackle.com

Shipping from Japan usually runs about $30 via EMS and they will deliver on a Sunday

Sometimes the Japanese sites also offer free shipping on orders over $100.

There are other Japanese market reels you can check out too, like the Basia and the Tournament Surf.

And don't worry about a Japanese manual--that's what you get anyway, even if you buy a Saltiga in the US

Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools, because they have to say something.
