That's the legit Viz version. I don't think you will find manga bootleg unless you consider scan that are being sold on ebay.

As for why it wasn't more bids. Maybe because it was the fist version which are flipped or maybe it's pure luck that nobody else was searching. But either way, you got a good deal on them. With shipping, it comes out to 3 dollar per volume which is decent for used manga.

Oh yeah, seller has 0 feedback, so that could be another factor.

Larrix: Maybe the reason no one bided on those manga is because most boot leged manga and anime are ilegal in the US.
And by the way where did you win them. Question
Larrix out.

you dont make any sense Larrix. They aint bootlegs and so your reason is not valid and also how can you ask where i got them when the link is very self explanitory..

From what I gather from his post, "Maybe the reason no one bid on those is because most of the stuff on Ebay is bootleg." Some bootleg stuff look like legit, like Samuri X the Movie I got in Korea. ADV's front and back, but the disc was far from it. But yeah, the graphic novels looks legit from the pic. 2nd Edition too. Next try the Bootleg topic in the Retal board.
