Hey CAG! Been a long time!
For those of you wondering what was up that have not already read about it, here is your update.
tl;dr ➡ I don't have a job anymore and am once again trying to make a go of it with just dv8CAG, lowballs, and other assorted things like auctions to support my family.
I did this for almost 2 years awhile back, and although we did stay afloat from month to month, it was always quite a struggle. That was with just myself, my wife and one kid.
Now we have THREE kids!
Luckily, dv8CAG has grown fairly nicely, but I am still asking you all to jump in and make some requests to get some Japanese goodies. Every little bit helps us and is greatly appreciated.
As for the lowball, I will begin posting some things up as of tomorrow and get it started as soon as I am able. Lots of stuff going on in my "office" at home right now, so space is at a premium. This means that it may take some time to get everything listed and pictured, but please do stick around and please, please, please make some bids for me.
START DATE: 03/08/14
END DATE: 03/16/14 - TODAY at a randomly selected minute in the 9am (DST) hour.
PAYMENT METHODS ACCEPTED: PP & AP
THE LIST: (If there are no special comments on an item, you can expect the item to be from the U.S. or at least playable on a U.S. system. Please check pictures for details as some of the items (specifically movies) may have come with additional discs or such which are often not included as I typically kept only the blurays and converted them to single disc cases. There are exceptions, so again, check the pics if you have questions!)

PAYMENT METHODS ACCEPTED: PP & AP
1) Simply type in your max bid for the item(s) in this thread. No PMs. No Emails. Just reply in the forum reply section. This is to keep bids public. Obviously post edits and spoilers hiding bids are NOT acceptable. If you made a mistake in your submission, please post again.
2) I will update the first page to reflect your bids as often as possible. Feel free to check the latest bids on the last page(s) if you are unsure of the latest update time.
3) There is no minimum to win any item. You can win them for as little as you bid. So if you bid $1.00 and win it, it's yours for a $1.00 (plus shipping). If someone bids $5 and you outbid them for $10, you may win the item for your $10 bid and pay your bid plus shipping at the end of the sale.
4) The smallest bid increment is $1.00, no $.50 or $.01 bids!
5) Please note that you will be expected to pay the amount you bid plus appropriate shipping if you have the highest offer at the end. Negative feedback may be left for those who choose not to follow through with payment.
6) If you place a bid, you are committing to that item. DO NOT place a bid if you do not intend to keep that bid active. While I understand that sometimes unavoidable circumstances arise, if you are fearful that this may happen, please wait to bid on the last day so you know that nothing unexpected occurred!
7) All bids are welcome (excluding bids from CAGs on my Negative Experience List).
Ending the Auction:
I will not be posting the exact ending time, but I will tell you it will end at some random time (between 8am and Noon EST) on 03-16-14. Once I post saying AUCTION OVER - NO MORE BIDS ACCEPTED, that is it and nothing further will count.
Once we get to the day, I will post a smaller ending window as usual.
Shipping/Payment:
Shipping options will be at cost as per the norm with me. Many of you have participated in my lowballs before and know that I do my best to get you the lowest rates. Sorry though, please no quotes for estimates, I simply do not have the time to package, unpackage, and repackage things regularly. I can tell you that, typically, shipping from Japan to just about anywhere is, for some reason, even cheaper than shipping from Canada to the U.S.
The following forms of payment are accepted.
~ Paypal
~ Amazon Payments
Please be prepared to pay within 3-days of the totals being updated in the OP. If this is not possible, please PM me before you bid with the item or items you intend to bid on for approval.
