    I have a lot of money in a paypal account and I want to buy some translated manga graphic novels but I am hitting lots of stone walls trying to find a bookstore that has more then 2 books in stock or will accept paypal or send to Australia.

    Before someone says Ebay, I've gone through them all and either they only have a few books in stock, won't ship outside the US or charge excessive postage ($130 dollars postage and handling? For 4lbs of books? I think not...). If someone could take my paypal dollars and buy some books and ship them to me taking some commission then that would be wonderful. :)

    I hope some one might be able to help as I am leaving Australia in 5 weeks and I don't want to spend real money on overpriced books and I need something to pass the time on a double figure hours flight from Australia. Probably way off topic too, but I hope the nice moderators won't stamp on this thread. :pray:

    Have you tried this site:
    http://www.bookcloseouts.com/defaul...lpartial&Ntk=Default&sort=p_TitleSort&dir=ASC

    All Tokyopop books are like.. 50-60+% off.

    Mail Standard Shipping

    * Typically one to two weeks for shipments into Western Europe, Australia, and New Zealand. Two to six week delivery time for other locations.

    Mail Priority Shipping

    * Typically one week or less for Western Europe, Australia and New Zealand. Two to six week delivery time for other locations.

    ***

    Of course, they could not have what you're looking for.
    There are other outlets.

    I'm willing to help.. PM sent.

    Ah as I said, I need to pay by paypal with a balance I have on my account, otherwise it would be easier. :D

    So basically you want somebody here to buy you some books them ship them to you for a little bit of extra cash.

    Sounds good to me whats the list of books you want?

    I could buy the books send them to you then u just transfer cash from that paypal account to mine.

    Does PP let you use the Virtual Credit cards in Aussieland?

    As my account is in the US with no chance of me adding a US bank account and as I have a personal account it is hard to do anything apart from send money via paypal.
