Bowevel and Cannibal, I'm sorry when I stated I said I bought items at "online stores". I mean, I do buy anime from some, but the truth is.....all my rare items came from Ebay. I go onto Ebay, like, everyday, so I search and search and bid and bid. So, Bowevel, I'm sorry again, the Vash Sunglasses I bought were on Ebay for $120.00. There's also Wolfwood Sunglasses, but I didn't buy them because I didn't think they were anything special. But, now, I kinda want them, just to complete the sunglasses set.

The sunglasses on Ebay now are REALLY expensive. The last time I checked, a pair of Vash sunglasses went up to $250.00.

Cannibal, I'm sorry about your not being able to online shop. There's really not that much of difference from when you buy it at the store and online. I'd say it's much more expensive buying stuff from stores, because....okay, for example. The Japanese store that I go to in Chicago....that's the ONLY Japanese store around, so the mangas and video games, they jack the prices up a bit, because they know they're the only ones, so you either buy it for the price, or don't buy it at all. So, I'd say that online shopping (except Ebay

) is not bad. There's only shipping and handling and certain taxes if you live in a certain state. Otherwise, online shopping is much more safer than Ebay because they're actually from a company, unlike Ebay where the people could rip you off at any time. As for right now, I think I'm about to be ripped off a VCD of Hellsing on Ebay. Very pissed.
