I arrived a bit late …

Sorry to double your purchase and especially the lady behind the counter forgot your ticket.

My tip is a list I created in word, I will update it to each of my purchases. If I do not then I leave then bought the book “not belong” and I will not forget to include it then …

I buy almost all my manga on Amazon and it has a little note that says “you bought this item on such and such a date” on the listing page. I also have an excel sheet of all my manga, back before I could buy manga online I reduced the size of that sheet and carried it around in my wallet. I’m pretty anal about keeping my manga organized. I’ve recently had to start packing up my manga for a move and the excel sheet is very handy for keeping track of which manga is in which boxes.

I always run danger to buy a double when im on one of those unplanned trips.Youre lucky that you didnt pick up a double yet

I am like you, I forgot whether I bought the manga.. And well I don’t read my manga immediately after buying.. So it took me months later to notice that I had a spare copy. And I didn’t have the receipt to go swoop another volume >_>

I’ve yet to buy a double of a manga, though my collection is small. I do have to stop and think for a minute because I usually never plan to go to the bookstore to get a manga, it just happens because I’m in the area and then I have to ponder what volume I’m up to.

Buying a figure twice would be absolutely horrible!
It easier to sell them off though
Im happy i can remember all my figures so far ^^

You bought twice a manga, it’s not like if you bought twice a figure

Looooll Indeed, it happens frequently. I believe that the greatest number of duplicate volumes are in my collection of manga Angel Heart Tsukasa Hojo ^ ^ 10 euros each, it hurts ! you can always sell your double or offer to someone. It is Christmas after all

@Hynavian
Thats probably the best thing to do.Its hard to resist tough

@dood
Onlineshopping is the way to go in this case!That mistake doesnt seem that bad ^^ Thanks for the link

@Halconnen
Seem like everybody these days has weak brains that cant remember the simplest things.Yeah i do dislike dark themes.Thats why ill try to change the color cheme later on

@SonSo
I dont think that i have that much patience XD
Its the right thing to do tough

@meronpan
3 doubles isnt that bad^^
I amazed you actually bought something like a fanbook twice.I think thats easier to remember than Volume Y of Manga X

@phossil
I instantly thought of Konata when i realized that i bought a double^^

@q
You dont?At All? WOW!
The Manga List renders unpractical when youre out to shop tough

@meronpan
Autsch mit DVDs geht das alles natürlich nochn Tacken tiefer ins Portmonee.Mit Figuren isses mir bisher auch noch nicht passiert.Die sitzen auch tief genug im Gedächtnis.
Ich glaub ich nenn dich ab sofort Melonpan-ojisama XD
