= Buying / Trading Stuff From Me =

Sales: Open ____ _ Trade: Open

So why am I offering most of my collection of doujinshi and stationary for sale or trade? It's because I'm insane!!! No, actually the main reason is that I live in an apartment and I just don't have the room to keep them all. I wish I did, but unfortunately I don't. Another reason is that I need money in order to get new doujinshi. I have bought a crapload of doujinshi but I don't have enough money to pay the service and shipping fees so they're just sitting in some warehouse in Japan right now... And the third reason is that sometimes I end up with duplicate copies that I just don't need.

The condition of most of my doujinshi are used. All of them (except the duplicates) have been scanned so the binding is slightly bent (some more than others) but no pages are falling out. I'm not that rough with them. If you want more details about the condition of a specific doujinshi that you're interested in contact me and let me know what flaws you're looking for so I can check.

= Buying =

The doujinshi and stationary that are marked as "available" can be bought. If you really want one that is marked "trade only" and don't have anything to trade (or can't buy them from somewhere) then I might sell it if you offer a really really sweet price.

More Info on Payment & Shipping

I prefer to be payed by money order (International Postal Money Order for international buyers) or cash (US$) but I will also accept Yen and Euro. If you send cash, do not send change and try to send the least amount of bills possible so that it's less likely to get stolen. Round up and I'll send change back in the package. (Except if you pay in Yen.) I do have a paypal account but I've never used it to recieve money before and I try to keep my use of paypal to a minimum, but if you can't pay by some other method (or trade something instead) I will try it, only if we can't think of anything else.

I will ship within the U.S. and internationally. I usually use priority so I don't have to buy envelopes or boxes at the store, but if you want to use a different method let me know. To get an idea how much shipping is check out the USPS website. When you email me tell me your zip code if you're in the U.S. or your country if you're not and I'll find a more exact shipping price.

= Trading =

In order to get the doujinshi and stationary marked as "trade only" you must trade something I want from my wishlist. If you don't have any of those items already then you can order it from somewhere (like amazon or cdjapan) and have it shipped directly to me. The good thing about that is you're less likely to get a bootleg, it'll be in new condition meaning I'll trade you more doujinshi/stationary for it. The bad thing is that items may be backordered and can take a while to get to me.

You will pay to ship your items to me and I'll pay to ship mine to you. You must send your items first. I will not send mine until yours arrive.

= How To =

#1) Make sure you've read and understood the above. If you're unclear with anything please ask me about it.

#2) You must decide what it is you want (check the availability!)

#3) Email me with the following information:

1) A list of what you're interested in getting from me.

2) Method you intend to pay (for buyers) or a list of what you are offering to trade me.

3) Your zip code (US Buyers) or Country (International Buyers)

4) Prefered method of shipping. (If you don't say anything I'll calculate price for USPS Priority / Global Priority.)

5) If you're buying something that requires proof of age, include a scan of some ID(optional)

#4) When I accept your offer, I'll give you the address where to mail your payment / items. You can either email me your shipping address or if you're uncomfortable doing that, then make sure to include it with your payment or items. If you didn't send me a scan of some ID before then include a copy (if it's required.) I will update the status list and hold your items for 2 weeks.

#5) When I recieve payment / items, I'll email you to let you know and then mail out your stuff on the next shipping day (Tuesdays and Fridays) that isn't raining or snowing since I have to walk to the post office and I don't want your things to get wet. When I've mailed your items the status of your item will be either SOLD / TRADED on the list.

#6) When you recieve your items please email me to let me know that they arrived safely.

= Other Things for Sale/Trade =

Besides the doujinshi and stationary, I also have some other things (like extra CDs / DVDs / manga / etc.) available sometimes. The same buying / trading process as the doujinshi & stationary apply to these as well. Hover for more info, and click thumbanail for larger image.

The following items I want to get rid of asap in order to make room for a bunch of new doujinshi that are on their way. They're all packaged and ready to go so these are only available to those in the U.S.

5 Manga magazines	2 in English & new / 3 in Japanese & used, furoku missing >> $6 + $7.70 shipping = $13.70 or trade something


1,200 unused Pokemon cards + rulebooks	I don't know how many there are exactly but I know for sure there's at least 1,200. I think the actual number is 1,303... These are the American cards. There are mostly common and uncommon cards but there is a handful of rare ones. There are many duplicates which is great for those who play the game. About half the cards are from the Base set, the rest are from Jungle, 2nd Base, Fossil, and Rocket. And almost half of the Rocket cards are 1st edition. I also included Rulebooks versions 1~3 and the Advanced Rulebook version 1. >> $10 + $?? shipping or trade something

257 CDs of Anime fansubs + extras	Before you get angry because you think I'm selling these for a profit, I'm not. Remember the discs themselves had cost me money. And because most of the episodes are commercially available these will be for trade only. (Buy the DVDs!) I think most of the series are complete but there will be incomplete ones. Series include: Final Fantasy: Unlimited, FLCL, Pretear, Boys Be, Inuyasha, Angelic Layer, Kodomo no Omocha, Fullmoon wo Sagashite, Chobits, Fruits Basket, Gravitation, Shoujo Kakumei Utena, R.O.D. (Read or Die), Ayashi no Ceres, .hack// Liminality, .hack// SIGN, .hack// Tasogare no Udewa Densetsu, Rose of Versailles, Rumic Theater, Excel Saga, Hikaru no Go, Noir, Witch Hunter ROBIN, One Piece, Naruto, Tokyo Mew Mew, Chrono Trigger OAV, Sailor Moon (Live Action), Sailor Moon R, Sailor Moon Sailor Stars, Princess Tutu, Daa! Daa! Daa!, X (TV), Spiral, DiGi Charat, Yami to Boushi to Hon no Tabibito, Chichana Yousei Sugar, Tenshi no Shippo Chu!, Chrono Crusade, Yuu Yuu Hakusho, Mermaid Forest (TV), Iria: Zeiram the Animation, Bakuretsu Hunters, Tales of Eternia, Vision of Escaflowne, Oruchuban Ebichu Movies: Hoshi no Koe, Sen to Chihiro no Kamikakushi (Spirited Away), Escaflownw Movie, Lupin III - First Contact, Cowboy Bebop Movie - Knockin' on Heaven's Door, Tenshi no Tamago There's also a few episodes of some other series not listed above. The discs also have some extra stuff like anime music videos, music videos from the U.S. and Japan, commercials, game trailers to fill up the extra space. I haven't watched all the episodes but I think they should work. If it doesn't, try washing the disc or playing it in another computer. I know that .hack // SIGN ep.21 doesn't work in my new computer but it does in the older one. >> trade only!!
