    YAY for My Love Story and seeing you ordered the series recently! Its such a fun one! And WHOA to Mars!! I can understand why you didn't grab it even though I'm still reeling from those cheaper prices! LOL! Oh my goodness the fifth store had GALS! I have so wanted to read that! And whoa Basara for $5!?! What a steal! This was fun to watch!

    I managed to find all 15 volumes of Mars plus the extra volume 16 for 60 USD in a small shop the other day. Couldn’t believe my luck. A bit yellow and some had folded covers but most of them were in good condition!

    Fun idea for a video. Yeah, I'm a board gamer too. 300 is a lot to me. I cull my collection periodically and try to keep it around 50-75, but I have plenty of friends who are in or above your league. Still starting on the manga though. ☺

    Great video at 13:55 I so would get that Ceres volume 14 hardcover library binding manga if I was in that half price book store and at 14:19 I would pick up the Fushigi Yugi Genbu Kaiden volumes 2 and 3 that are in hardcover I don't care if they are ex library copies I would still get them as long as they are not missing any pages from the story and those are called library binding that are normally used in libraries so it would be hard to get all of the volumes in hardcover library binding if a manga is normally paperback which Ceres is normally paperback so it would be hard for me to get Ceres in hardcover for all volumes I so far only have Ceres volume 4 and 9 in hardcover library binding from a library and are yellowed but I don't care about my manga yellowing on the paper and I have at least 29 or 30 library binding hardcover manga of shonen or shojo manga series that are Library Binding Hardcovers and basically manga that is normally paperback but libraries sometimes have them turned into hardcover library binding which I do collect over regular paperback just because I prefer them more over regular paperbacks when I found out about them.

      Thank you! It is not easy as you are sharing to find hardcover library bindings for manga. That is awesome you have been able to find a couple for Ceres. I have a few books that started in hardcover but then the publisher switch to paperback only which is a bit annoying.
