Weekly Recap - May 09 - Week 2

Bleach Heat the soul 6 was a definite JVG bailout this week. With a few short imports for the next week or so, thank god the game right in the middle of May. Next week will be pretty weak on the import front, but May will conclude strong with the release of Kingdom Hearts 358/2 on the 30th of this month.

Imports are up in price again as the yen rose nearly 4 points since last week. The Yen has been rocky, but has been slowly eating profits like our oversized pacman plush from clubnamco. It was more tedious adjusting prices back in december when the yen was at an all time high.

We're expecting our first shipments of the dj max muse-on limited edition controller in a few weeks. These are coming direct from Korea and make its way to the docks of Long Beach shortly. Backorders are expected to ship in a few weeks.

Sorry guys, we can't make it to Fanime this year. Extended labor costs, week long hotel stays, and other high rental expenses have made it difficult for us to make the 300 mile drive up. But we will make it to Anime Expo 2009. Thank you for all your continued support.
