It depends if they start selling in UK though. It's pretty hard to get anything here. I suppose there's always the internet. (:

Apparently, they're still selling in Germany. According to the Almighty Wikipedia.

You can import Viz and Digital Manga titles I think. You'll just be paying extra money and stuff. :S

Yeah, I know that. Although I mean publishing books in English again. :S Tokyopop said they might get back into the game, but I find that funny though. :-X

Most likely not. I've seen Shoujo Beat go out of print because of not enough subscribers and they said there's no way they'll come back because of it. Maybe it's the same thing?

Shoujo Beat is a magazine. It is still in print manga wise, although part of Viz media. :) So you still have some of their manga in print via VIZ media. :D!

Me and my friend found one site, but I think it was like $40 postage. . . He ordered a ton off it anyway. . . But that's still quite expensive.

Same here. I also have gotten manga in prime condition on Craig's List too. :D! Best place for manga. ^_^; Depending on your region/state of course. ;)

I use amazon because I get free shipping because I am a college student. I can't believe tokyopop is dead... that just makes me sad. Thankfully, I am more of a Viz reader, so my favorites won't be too affected.

I am going to have a vary hard time finding Saiyuki, I its one of the manga that I want to read badly. But I am happy that I own all of Fruits Basket. So yes I am going to miss Tokyo Pop

I'm very said about that. I've known about it for a while. When I first about I was like NO! No more finishing the series I got and no more yaoi l|l_ _ but I'm so glad I got a Kindle Touch for Christmas so now I can at least buy some of them and keep them there forever.
