It’s easy to just say “I want that, and that, and that…”, but you have to know when to say enough. I’ve done pretty well with just keeping to 2-3 trades at a time.

I would recommend Mangatude. All the people I’ve met and traded with, or had to refuse have been really nice, and the books have all been exactly as described. You can try a trade or two to start and see if works for you.

I am guessing she was a teenager that got overwhelmed with the situation and hopefully learned her lesson. Over 30 manga exchanges in 8 weeks is incredibly high in my book. This system offers an incredible opprotunity to many manga lovers that just cannot afford every title, but it does come with a respondsibility. I do hope things get settled eventually, but it is nice to see the good and the bad side of this exchange. I have a HUGE collection and would love to share, but the few friends I have done so have lost or marred my books. This website might be the answer to cautiously try out.

I wonder if it was the same person, since it looked like she was doing well before then. It certainly dissuaded me from trading with them!

Apparently she was in for *six books* with one person. Really sad.
