Yes it´s expensive to import first u pay let say 50dollar for the item and 15-25 for shipping and 20-30% on import taxes.
And what got me in to .hack when I first watch .hack//sign in 2003 and played .hack// Infection at friends place every sense I watched more anime and read mangas and got more in to it sense then.
I got a hacked ps2 just so I can play import games Like Star ocean 3 for ps2 I got a long way ago yeah allot of good rpg´s never made it to Sweden.
:/ Wow that sucks about the import taxes, I'd recommend amazon and as BrinODea mentions they ship to Sweden. Additionally if you spend over £25 you can select Free Super Saver delivery which is free and if you choose the "gift" option (its free,just add a message) that should hopefully lower or negate custom charges. Though best to buy 1 game at a time to avoid high costs incase that results in a custom charge
^o^ Glad you managed to play Infection and watch .hack//SIGN, which of the manga and novels have you read?
Alot of good games didn't make it to the UK either xD Good thing you can plan them on the PS2 now~ I bought a US PS2 mainly for .hack//G.U. but there is quite afew other games i'll need to buy ^_^

I read .hack//G.U.+ and .hack the manga with the characters from the .hack//twilight bracelet anime the only 2 mangas I could get my hands on here in Sweden.
But yeah I would die to get a art book or figurines or some other cool .hack stuff but I bet that will not happen for a long long time.

What about anime conventions? The few that I have gone to in the past did seem to have a decent amount of stuff if you knew where to look.

problem with that this country have like 1 mini mini anime convention and I been on it but not a singel .hack item to be found. This is what I hate to live here only way to get collectible is import with expensive taxes and I hate it cuz it´s same for what ever series you like .hack or final fantasy or mega man or what every you love finding games maybe be easy but art books and stuff import it and pay toons in taxes making it pointless to even import.
1 big example that pisses me of is USA got the ys games on PSP on UMD disk we in Europe got in only on PSN. Im a game collector I want cases not digital ****.
another example it took them 4 year before they deicide to finally give us Shin megami devil survivor for NDS. Every bloody time we get screwed and I hate it
but at least I can enjoy your guys big collections of .hack and get envious of it hehe

That really does suck... but who knows, maybe somebody here will be willing to help you out by getting it for you and then shipping it over. I would think that, that would be the cheapest way honestly... but unfortunately not everyone is honest either (not saying people here are thieves and jerks), and I totally understand how uncomfortable that makes people think about just giving their money to a stranger.

Yeah, but still it's nice to be able to play the games. I remember I had the second game for YEARS before I got the last 2, which I found for like $10 each. I was just at the right place at the right time. Maybe you'll get lucky and go by a store that has them used but hidden away.

?_? were they released in Swedish or English?
Unless you have friends going to the US/UK that could either pick them up or get them ordered to the address they're staying at ^_^
I'm surprised the conventions didn't have any .hack// items, usually there is afew manga and anime there :/
Good thing the PSP is region free so atleast you know you can play the game if you get the US version, same with the DS titles.

WOO Look what I found just looking around ebay! Hopefully I can add it to my collection soon since tomorrow is my last official day of classes, then I get to sell my unneeded books!

They where relased in English thank good manga on Swedish is crap because Swedish is a silly language >.<
Well that 1 anime convention we have is nothing to hurray over that mostly why you can not find any good stuff there like .hack hehe.
yeah it´s nice psp is region free I just wish the would release .hack/link on English I mean why release all games on ps2 over here but not the psp game ?
Thats cool BrinODea hope u can add that .hack Encyclopedia looks cool.

xD Atleast you got ahold of the english version of which nothing is really rare besides from GU novel 4,which can be bought cheap from amazon.com or RightStuf.
Because of piracy in the US, even if they localized the game that would cost them alot of sales plus there is alot of text to be translated in the game @.@
^_^ good luck with increasing your collection, plenty of english releases are easy to get ahold of!
xD i'm surprised to see you have Infection/Mutation and then Fragment lol Then again Fragment is cheaper than Outbreak or Quarantine (unless you find a good deal) ^^'
I'll hopefully be getting more items,then i'll be posting pics
Yeah //fragment was super cheap, like 10€, while I can't find a decent deal on //Outbreak or //Quarantine for less than 40€. Eventually I'll buy them even if at a high price, because I really want the full collection
Yeah finding a good price for those two isn't that easy, plus the majority of the time they are missing .hack//Liminality >.<
Hope you get to pick them up soon, i'll need to replay IMOQ with the NTSC games, that way I can convert data for .hack//G.U. and get the bonus e-mails lol
I should be getting some new .hack items in the next few days ^_^
All the games are cheap and easy to find in Japan. It's probably an economic indication that they didn't sell as many copies here, if they're harder to find. Well, that and the fact that Americans destroy their games.
I'm sure they are cheaper, but I lack the Japanese skills to be able to read them, and since I already started my collection with 2 PAL games, I'd rather continue getting the other 2 in PAL.
Yeah i've seen the price of the japanese games, pretty good compared to what they want for the US/UK versions,especially the last two ^^'
My latest arrivals (the 2 Deoxys, Quantum book and .hackey set aren't mine)
I finally got ahold of the Mr Grunty plush seeing as the last order got me all the LotTB japanese dvds w/ box but no plush .-. I managed to get a RRR Subaru and signed Saika card along with most of .hack//GU The Card Battle set of which i'm only missing 14 cards (of 84). All 3 .hack//GU memory cards complete with extras, the GU Trilogy;Mistral;Kite-Blackrose-Aura mousemats along with mini posters.
At my friends house there is a .hack//Infection poster,two demos (Mutation/Quarantine) and a third on the way ^_^ Also two "The World" magazines are in the mail
