This morning I awoke to a large order that nearly wiped us out of our Josei Jishin magazines. (Thank you!) A few years ago I got the desire to import Japanese magazines to sell at our store. The problem is, to make the shipping charges (which are expensive) worth it, I have to buy a lot and thus sell a lot. Buy a lot I did; sell a lot… not so much. So I still have a ton of magazine back issues even though I stopped buying them a year ago.

Josei Jishin (女性自身) is, as the name implies, a magazine for the ladies. I think it targets young women in their 20s and 30s. I had a customer in Hawaii request it for her mother. I thought it was a good idea, and bought a bunch of them. I am happy to say after this morning’s order, I only have eight left.

I had put them on sale a few months back but then forgot to un-sale them. The remaining eight issues are still at $2.80. That is of course less than I paid for them, but I would be happy to unload the bookshelf space! (hint hint)

The Last Eight Josei Jishin are Here.
