Mandarake is a really good website to put rarer or common preowned items. Anyway, I will never purchase stuff from Japan, at least for another five years. You will get your item at more reasonable price. just search on yahoo japan or mercari, and find a third party purchasing website. Luckily I'm not into buying manga figures. I don't understand why they put high price on ebay, but it is just not fair to people outside of japan. If you have time just search on Mandarake's own website in Japanese, you will find their price in Japan is very reasonable. Despite the fact they have already became successfully in their own country. It's extremely dangerous to order from such company. That's not fair to the consumer outside of Japan. No wonder why each book costs almost $40 or even more. I did not choose to buy from mandarake because I found they put every shipping amount on every single one of the books or magazines they sell. On madarake ebay list I can only purchase 3 books with this amount of money.
Anyways, I chose a third party company locates in Japan and they ordered 6 books for me, all together only cost me $300. Actually they charge each book with extra shipping just to "pretend" they are third party purchasing company, in fact they really are not that type of company at all! They put high cost on each customers. They are not supposed to charge each books with extra shipping cost. I compared the price of the books that I wanted on their ebay list and yahoo japan. They actually one of the most profitable companies in Japan because of selling Manga, figure and many more. They literally marked up on old magazines that worth nothing.
