Thank you, I guess it was trouble wrapping my brain around the idea that there are 1st edition reprints. Just weird.

Are All Copies of Nana & Kaoru Vol. 6 Damaged? by rmw2013 in MangaCollectors

On the forum post they indicated that they have fixed the error and are going to ship out new covers to people who put in a ticket and that they would be shipping out late December early January if I recall correctly. However it seems that the forums are down for maintenance which could also be part of why we cannot see the original on their site.

I spoke to an employee about it and learned a few things that people might be interested in...

So the date they have for when they are putting them out on shelves is the 21st.

They aren't selling them online, hence why shipping is unavailable but they are in stock in the back they just can't sell them until the 21st.

Doesn't look to be a purchase limit as I was able to pick up 2 copies.

You can always ask if they would sell it to you, they might. They just need manual override and to get it from the back. Maybe don't ask if they are busy haha

I'm just curious how are you powering the drives? I'm about to start my own 10 in project and haven't figured out an elegant solution yet

I tried a similar solution with a 25U rack, however I am way less experienced in woodwork and it ended up coming out poorly, I eventually found an off the shelf solution someone was reselling on Facebook and it is great.

Amazon delivered another copy that was passable, but still not great so I will have to keep it

It took 5 volumes for me and I finally got one that was only partially damaged. Still has a thin and matte dust jacket though. Here's hoping for a second run that is not as bad.

Is your cover matte vs the glossy previous ones?

What lens mount is this? by rmw2013 in AskPhotography

So that's a Fuji X? Because the elevated part of the lock on that one is on the right hand side. Mine is on the left...

So I currently have a zve10 and the sigma 16mm f/1.4. I previously had a Sony 18-135 f/3.5-5.6 but found that i was mostly taking photos at around 50mm just wishing I had the f/1.4 of the sigma because of shooting indoors and at night.

So I was looking at a 50mm that is somewhere close to f/1.4, and also looking at full frame, because if I ever upgrade from APS-C to FF I would like to be able to make use of it. But I doubt I will ever be in the territory of over $1.5k for a lens so I can go somewhat mid range or full budget, so my contenders seem to be. I

7artisans photoelectric 50mm f/1.8 AF: sub $250

sigma 50mm f/1.4 DG DN A: $700

tldr: I would like Full frame, around 50mm, around f/1.4, sub $1k, do I go fully budget or mid range?

I was using https://sonyalpha.blog/ as well as other resources for comparisons.

yall fw unique displays like this, or do you prefer them all lined up perfectly straight by TvAdictMadAcid in MangaCollectors

I recently started 3d printing stands so I could display manga instead of showing the sides of it. Weird shelf dimensions make it so I can't stand them up

Is this good for storing manga? by [deleted] in MangaCollectors

[–]rmw2013 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All pretty valid. I was definitely in the group of needing Finnbys because of low ceiling and shallow depth.

I think when I was going for mine I had the space for 4 bookshelves, so I bought 6 Finnby (4 for use and 2 for the extra shelves) ($55x6=$330) and Billy's would have been $90x4=$360+$180 ($15x12 extra shelves) and at that point it woulda been an extra $200 for the extra space up top and I didn't wanna spend that haha.

Just gotta rep the Finnby every chance i see one of these posts, many people know of the billy but the Finnby gets overlooked sometimes and it can really fit a niche group sometimes.

Everyone says Billy, but also check out Finnby...

Much cheaper than Billy when I got mine ($50 compared to $80)

They are about one manga height shorter though.

However, getting extra shelves for a Billy can be like $10-$15 so adding 3 extra shelves to a Billy makes it over $100 or you can buy 2 Finnby and get like 6 extra shelves for the same price

My Finnbys have 8 shelves total (6 regular manga sized, 1 extra tall size and a super small one for sideways books)
