battleknight45's steps when buying anime goods
hello battleknight45 here with my third blog entry on MAL lol.. sorry i dont post much..
ive been an anime figurine collector since college i think around 2006 (i think?)... im still in college btw and earning money for anime goods is kinda tough and because here in the philippines i think only manila has the stores that sells anime goods.. and i dont have a credit card account so no online buying.. FOR NOW.. lol..
here's my routine on buying anime goods whether its figurines or something..
1. plan on what you want to buy - its more helpful if you go to sites like nekomagic to get the latest news and remember the reviews.
2. get out of the house and buy anime goodies - do i need to explain this?
3. go to a hobby store/ anime goods store - remember to get updates from their website on new arrivals, pre-orders or sale(holidays for example)
4. when at the store, browse.. for a loooonng time - why spend time browsing? there might be something you missed.. for example in toy stores some collectors hide the rare ones in the backmost of the shelf..
5. check you money - its better to be prepared on cash.. bring your ATM card if have one.. or beg to your parents to give you some money.. lol..
6. decide on to buy it or not - before buying go to different stores to find which one is the cheapest.. also you might change your mind on your target you might get something better..
7. once you buy it you'll..... - be happy at first with mixed emotions of regret.. why regret.. of course anime goods are not very cheap unless you got a bootleg one.. which i dont recommend on buying.. also another form of regret.. when you dont have enough cash to buy another target.. lol...
8. canvas on what you spent - i normally dont do this lol.. but i recommend to do this.. this might help you on focusing your next prey.. or... give an explanation to your parent on how much you spent.. lol..
9. enjoy you new something - take good care of it..
well i think thats it.. these are my routine on buying anime goods i hope it kinda helps on you....
tip.. dont be greedy... think about your needs before your wants.. ^_^
