Where do you buy manga?
As the title says, where do you buy manga? Online? Book Stores? Specialty shops? Which is better?
I buy mine primarily at book stores and comic shops. Namely, I like Borders because they always have those buy 4 get 1 free deals ~ Sometimes I get stuff books from Amazon.com if I can't find it in a store. I rarely do internet shopping for manga though (but I buy a lot of anime over the internet). Note: this is slightly different from the "How frequently do you buy manga/anime" topic which can be found here |
When I actually used to read manga...
I purchased it it Boarders. I don't read manga anymore ;[ |
I almost never buy manga:
Most of the time, my friend buys it for me as a gift! ^_^ Otherwise, I borrow manga from the library. Or read manga at any bookstore that sells them, for example, Borders and Barnes and Nobles. Or, download them or read them online. O.O |
I use to buy it at a book store. Then after I bought like 5 of them and I realized it only took me 30 min.s to read one and 10 dollars for 30 min.s of entertainment didn't make me happy enough. :3
|
Borders. :3
|
I USED to buy my mangas at Borders. Now I don't because I read ONLINE manga. : D
|
Used book store... I get exposed to a wide variety of manga that way ^_^
|
wow Borders is like a #1 choice I don't know if you live in Vancouver but if you do I buy all my books at Chapters but its expensive u_u
|
Borders, Barnes and Nobles, Dr. Noes, Comics ETC or the internets.
I'm against reading scanlations, because it's just plain rude to the people that worked so hard on it. |
I usually buy from Borders or Borders Express because I have a borders card ^^; That and I ask for Borders gift cards as presents ^^;; Not really a big fan of Barnes and Noble

Waldenbooks

I used to buy them at Borders, but recently, I've discovered I've been wasting alot of money doing it that way! So now I just buy it on Ebay. It's cheaper and I can get a whole set at a better price rather than buying them at the regular price of $10 each.
|
I live about 5 minutes from a Borders so that's where I do most of my shopping. I also buy a lot when we go to Anime Central in May. There is a smaller anime/manga/comic book store by my boyfriend's house but we don't go there often cause I usually have Borders coupons. Its a sort of back up if Borders doesn't have the book we're looking for ^^
|
I shop for manga at Borders, due to the EXCESSIVELY great coupons. :3
Plus, sometimes they have buy 3 get 1 free deals. Good stuff. |
not something i do very often..my grandma sent me some money for my birthday to buy "manga" (she actually wrote that in my birthday card) so i guess ill be buying some for our club at school=)
|
I go to Hastings.
It has all the mangas I want ;D |
Is it true that you can buy mangas cheaper at conventions?
|
I go to borders because its in the mall near here, and I can also buy books there.
|
Kinokuniya! n__n Pretty expensive though =w=; There's another Japanese bookstore nearby, but i havent had time to visit it yet o_o;

Book stores. But if you're lucky, you could find manga in thrift stores for a dollar! You'll get that occasional person who just decides to give all their mangas to the thrift stores. And since they're soft covered books, they only go for a dollar. My friend beat me to one good stash, but at least I found a Tenchi Muyo manga left over xD
|
I buy mine at Books-a-million or go downtown in the mornings and buy them at Barnes and Noble.
If i'm too lazy,i'll just read manga online. |
i get mine mainly from waterstones but when my sister lets me i get them cheaper from ebay or amazon
i also go to this shop in Cardiff which has lot and lots of really cheap manga but i never really go wales and when i do its always shut oh well but yeah overall its mainly the ones i wrote at the top |
Walden's books...They closed though, so I'm stuck ordering things from Barnes and Noble.
|
I used to buy them online, but now I buy them at Borders or Barnes and Noble.. if they don't have it at the book store, I order it online. :3
