Hello, my ASUS ROG laptop charger just died on me, and I am looking for a replacement one.I wanted to know about a good location in Yokohama or Tokyo to find a laptop replacement charger for ASUS (150W 20V 7.5A) for a reasonable price, a 3rd party one is also fine. Can Yodobashi camera or BIC camera have them, or would I have to go to Akihabara (If yes what are some good reputed stores)? I live in Yokohama so it would be better to find nearby.
I have tried to search for this charger on Amazon, and I found some of which are unreasonably expensive (20K-25K Yen) and then there are a few that are priced similarly to other genuine ones around 3K-5K Yen but with little to no reviews. I am very sceptical about these, and as I have just moved to Japan, I am unsure about the Amazon JP return and refund policies.
Edit: removed a para that was duplicate

I believe this laptop supports type C PD chargers? There are very reasonably priced, and extremely compact, 65W chargers, as well as slightly larger/heavier/higher power rated chargers available…
If you’re in or near a big city, a large Hard Off may have one: they seem to have boxes of chargers at the ones I go to (Tokyo’s Machida; Nagayama’s Book Off Bazaar; Koza-Shibuya’s outlet).
Mercari/yahoo/etc for used power bricks.
Or Yodobashi/bic/etc. for generic power bricks with an array of plugs, aka universal chargers.
