#3 - Manga Collecting : Printing Order & Editions

Finally. This is so very very late and I apologize for those who were waiting for it. I got a new job recently, and was focusing all of my energy on that. I am settled in now and will try to make videos regularly again.

This video focuses on new & special editions, and the importance of print runs:

"[...] book collectors generally use the term first edition to mean specifically the first print run of the first edition (aka "first edition, first impression")."

And just to clarify... The Final Edition I'm talking abous is NOT the Special Edition you talked about, they are diferent things. Since the Speccial Edition, as you said in another video, are the ones that come with special content like extra stories, characters description, sketches, colorred pages and etc.... Right? :)

[tokirocket]

Regardless of extra content. Whichever version was printed first (as I said in this video) is the most valuable. Check the printing dates for this info. The extra content on it's own, however, is also valuable. Just a general rule of thumb is that the older the item is, the more valuable it is.

why would you wanna know about her breast size... great upload though ! its interesting .

[tokirocket]

Half the time people say that kind of thing it's because they just like boobs and think I'll like them if they compliment them, they are not under the same social pressures as one usually faces in "the real world" so the think it's ok ... the other half of the time the say it because they want to see if they can make someone mad, and have a fight because they are bored and lack hobbies.

Make a video on how to take care your manga BookS...

[supremesoph]

is there a way to tell if theres a older printing or would you have to ask i usually just buy 1 and 2 but i really badly wanna buy more and need tips

[beyondbookworm]

are there anymore magazines that give previews to manga? Shojo Beat just went out of business (which really ticked me off *sob*) and i dont like Shonen Jump.

oh, how did u learn japanese?

im a big sailor moon fan btw. amazing anime/manga right there. i want the manga, but it would cost me an arm and leg to get it off ebay.

i hope i'll still be into manga and anime when im 26 like u. im thirteen, started liking it 2 yrs ago. still going steady.
