Which Excel Saga Manga Volumes are Forum Members Missing?
« on: June 28, 2010, 08:55:13 PM »
Although we know that some volumes of the Excel Saga manga, such as 7 & 8, are hard to obtain, I'd like to try to find out just how many of each volume Forum members are missing and would presumably like to find copies of!

If you're still looking for a volume (or volumes), please post in this topic which ones you need. Every so often, I'll tabulate the results so that we can all keep watch for sources of the missing volumes.

So, please post:
   If you are missing specific volumes;
   If you subsequently find a volume you were missing;
   If you know where to find a missing volume; and,
   If you're up to date, and just want to brag!

Seriously, great thread, pointless. I'll try to help if I can.
This is important for those wanting to complete the series.

Since I am up-to-date, that makes 3 of us.

 :ropponmatsuI: CURRENT STATISTICS: 100% of self-selected respondents (3) are up-to-date and willing to brag about it. At least 33% of the sample admit to also being smug.

I only own 5,6,11 and 20... :e_crying:

However, it is possible for me to get all the volumes I'm missing through the internet, except of course 7 and 8.

I'm trying to collect them, I just don't have that much money, so it's moving slowly...

I see a bid on ebay for Vol. 8 right now, with 3 days left and it is still sitting at $9.95. A lucky buyer might be able to snag it. Here's the link: http://shop.ebay.com/?_from=R40&_trksid=p3907.m570.l1313&_nkw=Excel+Saga+8&_sacat=See-All-Categories.

Hope someone can bag it for a fair price.

Hi! I'm new here  :-[

I own 1-21 (22 on pre-order) on VIZ (2 copies of Vol.8). I read Vol.8 in French before English because it was only 10 Euros on Amazon.fr.

Won Vol.8 (in English) for $65USD in an auction. I was desperate for a copy under $200. Anyhow, the book came in while I was gone to Toronto and I managed to find it new, in a bookstore in Chinatown, for retail price ($10CAD). Anyhow, I cried a little and then purchased it.

So, if anybody is interested on bidding on an unwrapped VIZ Vol.8, I have it listed for auction at $50CAD (just to make back some I spent on the auction copy). Before you come to disembowel me for the high price, 3rd-Year University is approaching and I will probably need the money for other highly-inflated non-excel-saga-related books. *sob*

Cheers! :ehail:

Just a damn shame anyone has to pay so much for a single volume, though. Nature of the beast and all that.

I have them all, bar Viz edition volumes 7 and 8. Just why are those two so highly priced anyway? What's the story behind that? :iwata:

I have 1-7 and 9-11, hopefully I'll be up-to-date by the time 22 comes out :e_happy: And hopefully I can somehow find 8 cheap somewhere...
