Anyone here collects manga besides reading them as scanlations?
I am at 567 volumes right now (physically) and just bought Legend of Mana 2-5 and Rahxephon 2+3.
Since I collect them I really wanna have all of them, even though if I didnt like them that much. Its especially hard to get the last volume of Eureka Seven 6 for a good price nowadays. I already looked for it since 2010 and it was 6,50 normally, but even in 2010 it was already 25-30, even though it came out in 2008 here.
Another thing I kinda hate is the paper that was used in the early 00s for german manga. So I have GTO here and the first 10 volumes already look "yellow", while all the later volumes still look totally white. Looks a bit shitty in the bookshelf
Btw. is there a used manga-scene in america? I wanted to buy GTO Shonan 14 days and 80 for the 9 volumes still seems a bit too high right now for me.
