It depends on what kind of set you want. If you want a really nice hand
carved one then either the Shogi Renmai Shop or a Shogi/Igo specialty shop
would have a variety of different ones. However, the bans (boards) can be
quite heavy and thus may be hard to ship or carry on a plane. If you're
just looking for a small magnetic one or a cheap folding one with either
plastic or painted pieces then you can get one of those at almost any
decent size department store or toy store. Some very large bookstores may
also sell some. The cheap ones are really not that hard to find.
