Manga should cost less...

((has there been a similar thread I looked but I didnt see ne!!!))
Thats just what I think...!!! Like even if they were 7.50-8.50 thatd help so much! But its a lot for lil ol mio to pay $10 every manga I get, or they should price it on popularity...I know that it costs a lot, cause its translated n stuff....but maybe once tis's out for a lil while the price shall go down...Like like clothes!!!!
<3
Does neone agree...?

Re: Manga should cost less...

$10 for 300 pages doesn't seem like that much. What irks me a little is Dark Horse Comics selling their stuff for $14 instead of the usual $10, but I suppose Hellsing is worth it.

Re: Manga should cost less...

Really? In Malaysia we pay RM 4.50 for a volume of manga, RM 4.50 is about the price of a plate of chicken rice here. . . . . .

Re: Manga should cost less...

I seriously think that manga is overpriced in the US.

example as to why: A volume of the "Full Metal Alchemist" in Japan is 390yen plus tax...even with the exchange rate and the costs to translate and reprint the manga it shouldn't jack the price up by over DOUBLE!! XP

If you're lucky enough to have a shop that carries the original Japanese ones it only costs $4~7!! (Depends on title and if its old or new)

...but we still keep buying them...damn...T_T

But can't rembered what the price was after the discount.

Oh yeah anyways there are like two good websites that sells cheap manags and the good ones too.

Currently, €1 = $1.3
