My heart is racing.

I can't believe I won Grasscutter for far less than I expected.

I feel happy to have won two of the books I was after. :D

I bid $20 on a three of the many I do not own. Surprise, I was outbid. :)

Congrats, Maichan. Only two more to go. Impressive.

Peace, maka

SUPER!!! Congrats! So happy for you and also so happy for me as I did NOT win any of them and now I can still afford to buy the Rokutoys Series TWO set that they emailed me about.

I have been on a waitlist for a complete set of Series Two for a while now and they emailed me and told me that they have one available for me as I was next on the waitlist.

Very excited all around for all of us!

Congrats. 8) You can probably attribute the lower price on the recently released Saga volume 2. Some fans probably gave up on trying to get all the hardcovers. I put in a low bid in hopes of people forgetting about it. That plan didn't work. :lol:

Say what!? They never told me about a wait list.

Is this an April Fools joke?

Nope, it's legit. Give them an email or call.

I think they said that they had another one or two complete Series Two sets available but they go very fast. These sets are ones that they were still holding for people that had said that they wanted them back when they originally came out but never paid for them and after recontacting those people and giving them one more chance, they are re-offering them for sale.

No guarantees on how many they have, I just had been waiting a while and on a list and in contact with them and they pieced a complete Series Two set together for me.

Good luck!

Wow, all those later hardcovers going for less than RRP. Staggers the mind a bit...

Yes, I could not watch as I promised myself that I would not head down the HC collecting road for a few years (might not have been the smart thing to do, who knows when they will go for as little again?)!

I'm glad that you were able to win those. :)

Myself, I was trying for two of the more recent volumes, Mother of the Mountain and Tomoe's Story. But I got outbid on both of them. Oh bother.
