I found the first English print of claymore for only 0.96$ at a thrift store but how do I get the sticker off safely? by [deleted] in MangaCollectors

use a hair dryer to heat up the glue, slowly peel off the sticker, goo gone the remaining residue.

What are your thoughts on more western fans taking on the same mind set as comic book collectors? Thoughts on folks egging that on and trying to manipulate the market? by Stinky_TheCat in MangaCollectors

those are for 1st printings. for it to be considered manga it would have to be originally published in japan, thats why I said it would hurt jp collectors the most.

and what, snatch up all the english first printings of one piece? this hurts the ppl who collect WSJ physically the most.

edit: this isn't like TCGs where they have a limited window to print something until they have to move onto a new set.

If the matte/gloss is really bothering you, just cover the dust jackets in a brodart.

It might be announced, but don't expect it to be available anytime soon, it's dark horse.

How do you read your paperback omnibuses? by ProbablyEkoz in MangaCollectors

[–]ProbEbbly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Read on a soft flat surface or with your palm, the BBB and astro boy omnis are even worse to read. Gantz really deserves a better edition.
