Best place to buy from now???
So, where is the best place to buy from anymore? Mandrake seems dead. Ebay is nothing but scalpers from China and Japan who don't understand the figures don't command 4 to 10 times their original price anymore. So what's left???

Mandarake's still the best. You're probably using their old site that starts with ekizo in the url. That's stopped updating for a while now. Access mandarake through their home page and search the kanji for busou shinki.
I've set up alerts for the tag and not a day goes by that I get an email from them for new stock.

You must be right! I only see like the same 5 things every single day. XDStanisburgh wrote:Mandarake's still the best. You're probably using their old site that starts with ekizo in the url.

Dang you bookmarks!!! lol
Sadly though, I'm still coming up empty when I try to search the auctions section of their site with Kanji. Is that the part you're searching?

Re: Best place to buy from now???
Well, with the recent return of Busou Shinki from Kotobukiya and the surge of other mecha mususme (ranging from the sister series in ASPY's Megamis to unrelated AGPs), this question seems to now be two different ones; where to buy new, and where to buy used? For new, I prefer HLJ, while I know others have had good experiences generally with AmiAmi.
