Going to buy it, probably from an auction.
It's easier than caring about if it's available.

^Might also be more expensive that way? I still can't believe it's only priced at 1000 yen.

Depends on the auction price.
I won't pay more than 1,000 Yen, it's original price.
And my middleman fees aren't that high as well as shipping for such a small book.
Should be alright.

I Just did a special order at my local Kinokuniya book store. They told me that none of their US stores carry it, but they can special order it.

I heard that they wanted 23 dollars or so? That sounds about right considering shipping/exchange rate.

I called them to make a special order. They told me it would come out to $18 and sum cents in USD. I can't wait to pick my copy up when it comes in the store. I never really shop at Kinokuniya (I shop at BOOKOFF), because it's so pricey, but this book is so cheap!

Was that for them to ship it to you? Because I am having it ship to their store, and they told me it wasn't that much...

@truehappiness: Thank you so much, that's really nice of you :3 I'm going to think about it a little bit~ Although I guess if you find out whoever has the best deal, you should let us all know

Yeah, it was for having it shipped to my house. They said it would be $35 plus shipping -___- I live outside of the city so I don't think I'd be able to get to the physical store to pick it up :c

Ah, for things like that you should try to avoid having a middleman if at all possible. It tends to make things cost a bit more.

Wow it must be at least $20 dollars for shipping then? I actually have to travel at least an hour drive to my Kinokuniya, so I don't go there all the time, bu like twice a month?

The lady told me that I would get a confirmation saying I ordered it, but I haven't got one. Do you think I should contact them to ask? I want to make sure that they will get it, because I really want this book! >.<

Try to get the book via HMV? However, shipping costs may make it so that you end up paying around 35~ anyway.

I guess you COULD ask someone on the west coast to buy a few copies and ship? I'd be willing to ship out some copies if anyone was interested in buying the book as well but I would have to charge a bit for shipping and transporting the goods back and forth. (hopefully I won't have to charge like 35 but we'll see!)

I should be able to get a Kinokuniya membership card that will allow for discounts and stuff... will keep you posted!

Message me if you're interested in this~ I don't think I'd be able to help international members unless they were okay with also paying extra for shipping.
