Ohh, the opposite. that makes sense.

Yeah, at least several years ago when I bought manga/LNs, there wasn't a system setup and I just imported from Amazon.jp where the shipping cost was almost the price of the book itself. My LN days ended with stuff like Shana, Shinigami no Ballad, Zero no Tsukaima, etc, golden age, so I'm out of touch on present day importing though
I love the smell of new books though, so I'd still suggest real over digital if I had to choose

Amazon.jp prevents importing of R18 games, so I never got a chance to import those though. If I ever go to Japan, I'd love to buy some just for collection
(Because for some dang reason, laptops these days don't even have disk drives)
