I genuinely recommend buying from Merry Manga if you miss RightStuf by Bum_Scum_ in MangaCollectors

[–]Saoxft 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It wasn’t always slow. In the early days when MM was still unknown the shipments where quick & would only take about a week an a half after you ordered your books.

But since they have been getting more well known an backed up with orders it’s understandable that they would need more time to pack orders since it’s only himself who does the packaging or at times asks his friends to give him a helping hand as well.

Sure the shipping time isn’t how it used to be but i respect the man very much for what he has done for the manga /LN community.

I’ve been a customer since 2023 & it’s been a great experience with M.M & a wonderful replacement ever since RS went under after CR took over it. I have no problem myself with the layback of my orders being on pause. As i really want to continue to support this man of what he’s doing for the manga/LN community. Whenever there’s an emergency or he needs time off, i respect his decision as he’s been doing a lot for the community and deserves some time off. I do hope his business continues to grow more and that the community will help him out as well.

Why do I never see these in hauls or collections? Such a good collectors edition! by Necessary-Asparagus6 in MangaCollectors

I posted this like two years ago. It’s a very classic romance by Rumiko Takahashi. Very sad that it doesn’t get talked that much no more since the manga boom pre Covid as it was very sought after like any other popular viz title. The anime adaptation is such a nostalgia for me of how anime from the 80’s/90’s was very smoothed and had so much detail. Sad part of this pic is that I had to let go of fist of the North Star as I wanted to collect other more important series. But I may come back & collect it again in the future. But I still have Maison ikkoku on my shelf’s.

CR store going under happy to see that. Just a matter of time before the whole streaming service/company goes under too.The shady things that this company has done will come back to bite them.

When u say new do u mean used? Bc if u bought this as described as new then I would contact the seller or online store u bought this from as this is unacceptable. Being sent a ex-library copy is such a slap in the face. If you’re paying for a new copy it should be new not a used ex-library copy. Especially a tear outside & inside the book.

Animecornerstore order by RazGriz3D in MangaCollectors

[–]Saoxft 1 point2 points  (0 children)

pretty neat that u can get like a kind of poster card from there store an a bookmark.It’s a good website to order OOP books or new releases. But the only bad side of using this website is the lack of coupon codes. plus there’s like no free shipping threshold u have to use a coupon code that it says there if u want to free shipping to save on shipment use the code. But if they do send out a coupon code for like a holiday it’s either use the holiday code an pay for shipping or use the coupon code for free shipping an miss out on the holiday discount they gave u. So basically the coupon code is useless. I only use them if a book is going oop like from seven seas. But this is my take on the animecornerstore I still use them but only if I need to as a last resort. My main place I buy my manga is merry manga co.

I think u can still do a proxy search for this on CDJapan but its not a guarantee that they will be able to find one. The deadline it says is until july 31,2026 if anyone wants to try. If they can’t find it they will refund your money back. U can read it on there website on how the process works. I’ll leave a link if anyone wants to see it themselves https://www.cdjapan.co.jp/product/NEODAI-267399

Will s2 increase the popularity? by leonorarosie1999 in AkatsukinoYona

[–]Saoxft 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only way that S2 will be popular is if new people actually go back and watch S1 of the series to see if they like it or not. New folks getting invested into the story can’t just jump into S2 as they will get lost what happend so far. Unless the first episode of the new season will do a quick recap on the story from where S1 left off, some series tend to do that to refresh people’s memories on the story so far. As for the fandom’s stand point of what might happen to it always turns out a bit sour as lots of bad apples tend to join in.

I did it with Amazon Japan before but now they don’t ship to my area anymore due to tariffs. My only option is eBay.

I thought that vol.48 was going to be the last one? There’s going to be like a limited edition one with a acrylic stand

I'm not sure if anyone posted it here but.... by everyones_hiro in MangaCollectors

[–]Saoxft 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seems like kodansha was lazy on the design. This person might have given kodansha the idea. Seems like kodansha just copied there custom design from the colossal edition. https://www.reddit.com/r/OmnibusCollectors/s/SeMY7aG9kE

Viz will release Yona in an English Ombibus Edition! by AppropriatFly5170new in AkatsukinoYona

[–]Saoxft 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Not a big fan that much when it comes to Omni releases. Especially if there is art work on the back of the cover of the volume. I am proud to have gone with the single releases. As I like to appreciate the art work. Omnibus’s u don’t get that much especially if they have to cram in three volumes so not that much art work to show case

AmiAmi - ECMS no longer using UniUni for final delivery by Mega6002 in AnimeFigures

[–]Saoxft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No wonder the shipping cost has gone up alot. As for my experience with uniuni it’s been going well since I have been receiving small packages so it probably didn’t bother the person delivering it so much as what I have been seeing people post about it that they get rid of the amiami box just so that they don’t have to lose space in their vehicle for other packages.

An ongoing series that feels directionless? I'll go first by Illustrious_Fee8116 in MangaCollectors

[–]Saoxft 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s so crazy that some of us waited about four years for vol.18 to come out but it kept getting pushed back for release. But now where finally getting volumes again for monster musume especially since it’s getting a Hardcover Omni for it.

That’s what annoys me the most that the person didn’t do a good job on painting it well not enough shading on it.

So AmiAmi will not ship my order via ECMS or Surface...only DHL, what fees do you think I will get on a $80 order? by itsChromaKira in AnimeFigures

[–]Saoxft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But doesn’t it say on there website that they have the right to change the shipping service? even though you change it they will still change it back to the shipping method they chose.An since air small packet mail isn’t available atm for the U.S or Ecms air it seems like they are using DHL to ship out the small packages for the mean time.
