My calculations show that my auctions only accounted for 57% my entire YJA spending. 27% went to shipping and 16% deputy services. But upon receiving my Byakuya, I realised I would have bought the items for 2X the price anyway. It is beyond AWESOME :P I intend to buy more copies knowing how the price will SKYROCKET after a couple of years :) OneSin: You can try Kinokuniya Ngee Ann City. If they're not carrying it, check with the service counters to have it imported. But if you are looking for doujin, Comiket releases such as Byakuya Chakai, Yahoo Auction Japan is your only avenue. :) muhootsaver: Indeed!

Once you get into that, it'll suck up your money like a vacuum cleaner. Mostly because when you bid, you tend to think it's cheap but when all the fees and shipping cost comes down to you, well... lol. BTW, since you seem to be into artbooks and all, and now that you are using Yahoo Auction, maybe it's time for you to start collecting high quality replica artworks. ^__^ Now THAT will rob your entire bank account.
