So I probably won't be able to get the other Arpeggio of Blue Steel giveaway item (the special book with the extra chapter about Takao's time in Yokosuka). I've bidded up to
30000 yen with a proxy service (so it would actually cost me $450 if I had won with that), and still got outbidded. Too crazy for me.
Last time, I actually got the drama CD for a fairly low price (3500 yen) because the seller put it up with "Buy It Now." The other auctions for it went up to 10000 yen and 5750 yen.
You can see shots of the book
