If they would have done some searching they would have found out that you can still get most back issues at the regular price, instead of going on a bidding war on ebay.

From what I’ve seen so far is that issue 1 is hard to come by and issue 3 is no longer available anywhere (which is driving me nuts since it’s the only one I’m missing).

Yen Press needs to get with making back issues available, because no matter how good they are, their price is relatively high and people want to know they can get a back issue with out the hassle of searching the entire internet and every comic book store in their area.

It is possible to get back orders though, a friend of mine recently picked up the series and he was able to buy all five issues easily, including 4 back order issues.

Hell i’ve seen volumes of Shojo Beat going for similar prices, and they’re available for back order as well.

I was just looking into what some of my out-of-print manga books were going for on eBay but I never thought an anthology as new as Yen Plus would already be going for such high prices.
