speaking on amano's product, here in Israel we can get only his aquasoil, powersand and his liquid fert's, and there is no official dealer of ADA, only one shop that get it from europe and charges a forune on his products:
one bottle of 500 ml - about 55$!!!! - thats why i make my own ferts
aquasoil 9l is 80$ !!!! - i boghut it only for my toninas and eleocharis in other tanks i use only a few kilos if and where i put the foreground plants like glosso etc.
if there is something i would realy like to get - its his chrome canister filter. but no one import it to israel. i know its expensive (600$ in us - probably 1000$ in Israel) but i realy like it.
and i made my own glass lily pipes, bubble counters and defusers cause i couldnt get them here...

here are a few products i made (i even sell them to other people from the hobby):
