I have been to the Saitama warehouse at Shinmisato. Nice and new warehouse with many interesting local products, but quite a hike from Tokyo proper. The bag I brought was almost too small for the goods I purchased, but there is a shipping counter in the warehouse after the checkout to ship your purchases home. I really enjoyed the Japan-only paella from the hot foods section.
