Yeah, I read that and I read it on the main page, but I still just can't wrap my head around it. Does that mean all of my Chinese and Japanese books are out of the question? Even though I bought them here? I mean, they're in foreign language, so that *had* to have been imported at some point.. right? Perhaps more clarification on the books would be nice.
Gomennasai if it is posted somewhere and I have completely missed it.
Those books would fall under the realm of commercial goods. People frequently sell their used Japanese manga at the swap meet.
(and sorry for the slow reply -- I never received notification that you had posted a response).
