WTB - some UY Hardcovers

Post by maichan »

I know a lot of people are looking for hardcovers, and that the competition is probably fierce :roll: , but I thought I'd post my wants in the small chance maybe someone might have some for offer...

...I can dream, right? :wink:

Anyways, here's my list of the hardcovers that I'm still after:

#1 The Ronin

#6 Circles
#7 Gen's Story
#8 Shades of Death

#12 Grasscutter


If anyone has any of these books, or might have a lead as to where any might be found, please leave a reply or PM or email me at toyotageek(at)yahoo(dot)com :D

Arrigatou!

P.S., I should say, I know they occasionally pop-up on eBay, but I'm not a frequent eBay user and don't really keep an eye on them there (maybe I should).

Edit - Updated list - removed #10, #11, and #13; removed #14; removed #3 :D

Watch amazon, sometimes they pop up relatively cheap. Try calling some of the TFAW stores, not the online version, they sometimes still have some older ones in stock.....

Thanks Steve. :o Never thought of using Amazon.

Well, I didn't waste any time... I ordered some off Amazon - 3 down, 7 to go... :lol:

Thank you Steve! I now have 4 new Hardcovers in hand.
I've updated my first post to reflect my current list of "Maichan's Most Wanted Hardcovers" - only 6 to go! Wish me luck! :wink:

I know it's not on your list but I have a Space Usagi hardcover if interested.

Updated my main list.
I was able to find #3 The Wanderer's Road from a book store in New York for the cover price of $50! That made my day! :D

Thanks Steve! But you're putting me between a rock & a hard place.... :lol:
Five hardcovers (and another pending), 38 Usagi comics, and even more early Groo comics all in one month has put me in a bit of a pinch... :roll:
I think I need to take a short break from buying anything more, before my wife puts me out on the porch. :lol:
On the other-hand, the books may be worth a few nights of sleeping under the stars. :roll:

I contacted one of the sellers of Book 1. It was listed incorrectly and is actually a TB (they took it down already).

It took me several years of persistent searching to get all the hardcovers I was missing. Some I found at cost, others I had to pay double the cover price. Just keep searching online, eBay, and calling comic shops and (used) book stores. I'm on the west coast, and I wound up finding number 3 from a book seller on the east coast! Hopefully you'll eventually find a copy. Good luck!!
