Hallo there, I ended up with an extra copy of the manga, so I thought I'd sell it to you folks for $25 plus $5 to cover shipping. I'm willing to ship outside the US though, just know that you'll have to cover the cost whatever that may be. This is the regular version and in mint condition. I haven't even taken it out of the plastic yet so whatever's in there is whatever is in there for you to lay hands on first. I'm willing to take bids on the item if there is a case of multiple interest in the item. Just make sure to quote the last person who made an offer so they know they've been outbid. In case of bidding, I wont take bids later than Wednesday at the same hour this post is made today. Item will be sent same day or next day when payment is made. 
Edit: Complaints about the price will be deleted. Please only respond if you are interested in buying the product.

Like a little girl, my face just lit up that I actually might get the chance to snatch one of these!! <33 * V*Well, I don’t think you should get your hopes up waiting for official merchandise to come into perspective, but hopefully I can still spice up the trade with what I have to offer.
I’m an artist, and I just love to put my mind into thinking of new crafts that are unique, people can treasure as one of a kind, etc. Currently, I have gotten a laminator, making 10mmm laminated keychains. Firstly, I would gladly be able to throw some of those out at you. I have sold a few at a small, library convention last Saturday, and I have a lot of surplus’ of characters from other shows besides Hetalia. They are about 3-4 inches tall to 2-3 inches wide. If you would like to see some examples, my devaintART will be updated in the next few days.
If that doesn’t interest you, I’d be happy to throw some more suggestions out at you~

Haha ;;; I'm not quite in the market for keychains at the moment, BUT! if you've got anything else, I'd be happy to hear it. Does your DA have examples of some of the crafts you've made?
:x Also, not going to lie, if you have anything Assassins Creed I'll probably be scramblin' all over you to take a look.

I am right now in the middle of coloring a Sealand picture, which is currently my most recent piece of art. Other than that, I have three other pictures to color, than everything should be up and loaded from keychains to gifts to commissions..
Other than keychains, I can always do the simples. Bookmarks, prints, postcards, etc. Oh! I also have this acrylic-like material called Shrinky Dinks. I make phone charms other than keychains.
To make my work, I suppose, more unique, I enjoy using these things called Perler Beads (you can see some of my more recent once in my devaintART gallery). I found some really nice Hetalia sprites to make replicas of. Also, I can paints and on bags and stuff, but I haven’t done that in three years. If you really want, I would always be so honored to make some Assassins Creed art for you. I’m not completely familiar with the series, other than it’s a popular video game. orz;; /into Nintendo and RPGs, etc..
So, if you decide to scroll around my gallery for now, please, please do not take the art there into consideration. All of that have been drawn more than six months ago.
Sorry for the long posts and all. I really want this book but with an acceptable was to get it along the side.no subject
If we can't come to a trade agreement I'll still consider you first in line if you'd like to make a money offer, and package-tracking is on the house.

After shipping, the price is almost doubled anyways, even if you got it shipped via the cheapest option (The USD is not doing amazing against the JPY, same with the AUD). Not to mention, it's in high demand, especially the special edition which sold out fairly quickly and is still highly sought out amongst fans. So with higher demands and rarity, prices go up of course. Though the normal version has also been sold out in most places as well, and with limited numbers, prices go up.
And well, people do want to make a profit. If you sold it for the original individual price of the item you bought it for, you wouldn't be making a profit, you'd actually be losing money, a fair bit if you did it often enough. Generally people sell things for the original amount then part of what they paid for shipping, hence why prices on places such as lj will always be a bit higher. [Not to mention the time and effort some items require to be purchased ans shipped]
$25, is actually a really decent price imo. Stores that specialise in selling Japanese magazine and manga in western countries are asking around $30 average. My friend asked her local japanese manga store and was given a quote of $32 AUD.
I'm not trying to come off rude or anything, but I thought you'd like a bit more detailed explanation :')
