I don't know how widespread Half Price Book Stores are but I know we have a couple near me.

Anyway I was pleasantly surprised to find a nice little section of used Anime DVD's. I picked up my last remaining Wolf's Rain I was missing. The prices weren't overly cheap. Most DVD's were priced about $14.99 (which is still cheaper than the Best Buy near me).

They also seem to be building up a nice little used Manga section. I picked p a few volumes and all were in great condition.

Just wanted to pass this along, if you have a Half Price Books near you, you might want to pop in and see if they got any anime in.

They're opening one 5 minutes away from me on November 16th I believe. Sounds great to me.

I've gotten a lot of anime for great prices from Half Price Books. It's gone up a little. I used ot only pay about $9 for each DVD, but most is still cheaper than Best Buy. However, you have to be careful there, because they sell bootlegs, too.
