Yay! Manga!

Just a quick additional post. So a week or so ago I made a purchase on Amazon.com using my manga budget and the additional funds I had from turning in my quarters and other change I got at Tekkoshocon, Anime Central, Anime Next and Anime Expo. It was a rather annoying experience.

First, I discovered that Amazon's shopping cart can't handle over a purchase of over a 100 books in it's cart (I had about 250 in there), so I had to trim down my order. Second, they split the shipments... which usually isn't a problem. Except the first shipment was a singl book, Kare Kano 21...while 17-20 are still waiting to ship. I bought a couple of ranges of books and I've been getting notices all week that various books have been shipped out.  So far none of the ranges have been shipped together. Some I've getting book 2 and books 1 and 3 are in a separate shipment, some its volume 4,6,10 in a shipment and 3 and 9 is in another, 5, 7, in another. Argh!

However I just checked my order status, and found one shipment was delivered today! I didn't see it earlier when I got my mail so of course I went up to double-check. And there it was a big box of manga! Now I just have to figure out if I got any that I can read. I got about 30 volumes in this shipment, there should be something that I'm not waiting for an earlier volume on.
