A day of mourning
It's always a sad day when a book store closes and that day is rapidly approaching. There are six major book stores in the area,. Three of them are waldens, but that is about to change. In four days time, one of them is going to be closing its doors for the last time. It's not the one I frequent the most but I still give it my patronage from time to time when I'm in that area of town. I swung by yesterday to see how they were doing and to see what was left. they were SWAMPED! and for good reason. Everything in the store was 40% off or more. I soon forgot my melancholy and dove into the manga section to see what I could find that I didn't have. Sure enough, I found a few.
Picked up a new series, Basilisk vols 1,2, and 3 which was down to eight an some change from fourteen per vol.
Also on the shelf was the 2nd and 3rd volume of Eureka Seven.
and just because, I picked up a negima wall scroll, see above.
P.S. - last weeks slim pickings:
Oh My Goddess! volume 24. This series is so rare it's sad. Dark Horse in their infinite stupidity only produces a very few copies of their books. HELLO, these are MASS market publications, not collectors items. PRINT MORE COPIES!!! If you print them, they will sell. I was lucky and got there right as they were unboxing the shipment and got the only copy, it never even made it to the shelf. My work takes me all over the state and into the surrounding states so I can say truthfully that it was the only copy within 100 miles, I checked.
