I'll just get right to the point. I've looked everywhere for this book and I can't seem to find it. This is the only book in the series that I can't seem to get at an affordable price. As you can see, the lowest price amazon is posting is $100. I can tell you right now, I'm not willing to pay that. If anyone can find a website in which I can purchase this book, I would be very thankful.

Sorry man, I think your out of luck. Its been a while since I saw that volume priced anywhere near reasonable. I'd say periodically check eBay; I managed to get a couple of obscure books at pretty low prices that way. Some comicbook sites might carry individual issues if your willing to go that route. I hate to say it, but in these cases sometimes you have to download scans in order to finish an out-of-print series that your already invested in.

Uhhhhhhhg, I was afraid someone would say that. I remember ordering them all on ecampus awhile back. Oddly enough, vol. 7 is the only hard one to get. I even checked amazon, every other volume in the series is at a reasonable or the original price. And I'd like to find a scan, however much I'd actually like to buy the book, but I can't find any. Guess I'm sol at the moment =\

100 bucks for a freaking book? Wth?! Shocked

Whats the reason for that? Is it rare or out of print or something?

I would not ever buy any book for that price. I dont care how much I like the series or author. I'd find another way to read it..if you know what I mean.. Wink

Yes, the whole series is out of print. And for some odd reason, the only volume that I need is the rarest one to fine. Lucky me, no? Oh, and I know there are other ways of getting it, I just can't find said ways ._.

I also have the scan, but I can't exactly distribute that here...

I tried checking my local shop, and they're sold out of that particular volume. I have extra copies of vol. 6 and 9, but not 7, sadly. Best of luck!!!

unfortunately the site does't have coded page structure so you will have to give in the ISBN umber i the search fuction!

v7 isbn:
1569311846

so i hope they deliver it to you!(although i also hope that ain't the last copy of v7 otherwise i screwed myself Anime hyper)


i also have a question if you don't mid answering:

1: the 9 volume editio of the series is it unflipped or not?

Ah, thanks. I'll be sure to try and get it.

While I haven't looked at it in a while, I'm pretty sure every volume is flipped.

Yes, every volume of Sanctuary in English was released "flipped."

Try used book stores. Check with your friends around the country and ask them to go, too. I found the entire series at Half Price Books in Austin, TX. Unfortunately I was unaware that the series got o be expensive and only picked up the first volume. It was about a year ago, though. They may no longer be there. But try places like that. Man, I wish I had a Half Price Books near here....

I've tried a lot different used book stores. Hardly any of them even carry manga. Also, I would ask my friends, but most of them don't even like anime/manga, so it's practically pointless. That would have been a really idea though Anime catgrin + sweatdrop

I DID order the book off of this one website I found. The problem is, they're no responding to my order, so I'm not even sure if it worked.
