Wow, awesome! Maybe I can finally buy japanese books without having to spend a bomb at Kinokuniya.

I visited the bookstore the other day and got myself 3 children's book. (yes for myself!) Total cost $29.00 and are in really good condition. I also became a Bookmart member (FOC) on the spot. The staffs are really friendly and will assist you if you have a specific book you want. Unfortunately, no one wants to sell off their Kadonsha Jap-Eng Dictionary. They also have a small cafe and you can sit and read the many books/manga/magazines there while having a beverage. Here's an incentive for me to really learn the language so I can get the fashion magazines for $2! *yay!

good for getting 2nd hand comics and browsing them before you even buy it :)
but one thing is that, i find it quite hard to communicate with them.. they speak a little too fast for my standards. but i will patronize them again!
