|
|
Volumes 2-4 of MAR anime £5 each
Volumes 1-11 of Suzuka manga £3 each
Collections 1 and 2 of Escaflowne anime £7.50 each
Volumes 1-5 of Galaxy Express 999 manga £5 each
This was all found in one charity shop on one visit. I did also get Moon Phase anime collection for £20 from the same shop a month or so back. This made me wonder if anyone else has found some good anime/manga bargains from a charity shop. |

Never as good as your haul (envious of the Galaxy Express find), but you do find the odd surprise. Central London's probably the best - used to see a lot of Tanoshimi books for some reason.
Stuff I've found - mostly quite obscure stuff tbh:
Grey 1
Mai the Psychic Girl 1
Once Upon a Glashma
Battle Vixens 11+12
Ray 1-3
Kekkaishi 1
Invisible Boy 1
Tetragrammation Labyrinth 1
Land of the Blindfolded
The other week I saw the UK Gon graphic novel and Gasaraki DVD 6, and you still see the odd VHS out there. Saw Wind of Amnesia last time which still isn't out on DVD, so it's always worth looking imo. _________________ My drawing blog and webcomic. |

There's a charity shop in Chichester which has quite a lot of CMX manga for about £4 each. It's there everytime I go and no one ever seems to buy it. Unfortunately, I can't ever have a proper look as my mum drags me away
I did have an amazing dream about a charity shop filled with manga once though  |

| 19, but my mum's determination to remove me from charity shops whilst I am with her is legendary. |

| Could you not just go one time on your own? |

£4 seems a bit much for a charity shop... sounds like it's an Oxfam.  _________________ My drawing blog and webcomic. |
