The gray 3-pack has the same barcode in both Taiwan and Japan; it's ¥299 per pack in Japan and NT$129 in Taiwan. It's fine to pick up while you're already there; for a small-ticket item, paying extra shipping can easily wipe out the price gap, so it's not worth a special trip just for a pack of sponges.
