Free imports plus discounts? could you list atleast one or two of those sites here please? I'd buy from them   :)

If you bought anything from outside of high value, you would know the trouble the customs here give. I said I won't offer discounts if I didn't get orders for a minimum amount per month. Below a minimum order amount, no dealer or distributor gives any discounts. They treat it as retail sales and as retail sale you do not get discounts. Only wholesale sales are entitled to discounts. :)

If there were enough buyers here on this site like say around just 100 people every month, I could have given discounts too. You don't expect me to give discounts when I don't get any do you?

As to how you got that 5-30% cheaper calculation I cannot understand since
1. nowhere here have I mentioned any prices. and
2. customs duty here is around 14-28% of the value of goods imported and you end up paying more (even if international shipping which costs a bomb is considered free)

No one will offer free imports unless they have lots of money and don't mind loosing it.  :P

Ok. So give me an example where their prices are lower than the US prices since they get their manga from USA and also give discount on that item.

Not really sure what you are asking here, but volume 1 of Naruto costs Rs. 500~ + shipping from Amazon and right now it costs Rs. 319 at flipkart.

^ all the Naruto volumes I saw on Flipkart were around 250 mark.
Better deal is to buy the boxset Naruto 2008 Box Set, Vol.s 1-27 (Paperback - 2008-08-26) @Rs 6826 with free shipping.
Weighs a heck of a lot at 18 pounds :O  and at this price is a bargain considering you get some extras thrown in too. :)
