Actually, according to todays exchange rate, 1200 yen is roughly 10.793 US dollars. Which is hella expensive, like, wtf?
Apparently fruits are very expensive in Japan.

The labor and quality checking that goes in to each piece of fruit is so extensive that it drives the prices up. Each fruit has to be PERFECT before it can be put on store shelves. As such, they're considered a "luxury item".
