Sale and Promotion hunting

On sale on Amazon as well - both a few of the series, and the many of the magazines (2018-2021 is 22円, after that it varies)

Bookwalker: 百合姫の電子書籍無料試し読みならBOOK☆WALKER

Amazon: Amazon.co.jp : 百合姫

Bookwalker’s much easier to navigate, in this case

Interesting… I have a few series on my Amazon wishlist and they didn’t get flagged for being on sale so I just assumed it wasn’t on over there.

Actually it looks like it’s mostly the magazine, some anthologies, and maybe a few series there. Sry for the mixup

How do you know if something’s flagged as on sale there? Does it show on a wishlist or something?

On mobile only (or at least that’s the only place I have found it) if you go to your wishlist, there’s a “price dropped” category that you can click on.

Good to know. I’ve almost never used the wishlist, but perhaps I’ll try using that in the future

I pretty much only use the wishlist because of that feature :laughing:

Well I just bought 42 vol 1 of manga on Bookwalker for 800円 (minus coins I already had). Thank you very much… now to buy all the 2018-2021 Yurihime magazine on Amazon… why am I like this

Update: I bought all of them from 2017-2021, and really have to resist the temptation to buy the remaining 2022-2023 volumes I’m missing…

They might get a sale two years later…

If I still don’t have all of the volumes in 2 years from now, something has clearly gone wrong in my life :stuck_out_tongue:

I’m very tempted to pick up all of the ¥22 monthlies but I have so much manga to read already that I think I’m gonna be good and pass. It’s not like I didn’t already buy like 10 vol 1 and 2s today, plus some book club stuff to get me over the ¥1500 for coin back

I got them already so we could be enough people for an informal book club :stuck_out_tongue:

The first three volumes of ホテル・メッツァペウラへようこそ | L23 are half off on Amazon! It’s a good slice-of-life set in Finland for anyone who needs an exotic bingo square.

Heads up that audiobook.jp is having their semi-regular 50% off sale for a bunch of titles until July 31. I believe they’ve also got a points back campaign ongoing until the same deadline as well, where if you spend 2000 yen you get 200 points(/yen) back.

Notable titles I saw (not an exhaustive list):

Note for those not familiar with the platform, audiobook.jp is DRM-free and accepts (at least some) foreign credit cards.

Do you know what format you can downloads files in? M4b?

I believe they’re mp3s; I don’t recall if there’s an option for any other format.

They’re mp3. They do also have an app you can use for convenience.

The entire 30 book run of ときめきトゥナイト | L24 is on sale at Bookwalker and Amazon for ¥77 each.

That’s the same price as a bunch of other Ribbon manga have been on sale this year for for the 70th anniversary (since it’s actually ¥70 plus tax), although I haven’t yet investigated any further.
