I decided to follow Vix and Aya's example and open a separate LJ for sales - makes it easier to split everything up into categories! Since I put up the sales post here a few weeks ago, my brother decided he wanted to get rid of some stuff too (hence the sudden increase in shounen manga in the posts) and I've decided it's time to part ways with some ( Read more... )
