 So DMP has a series of manga that are published through their Doki Doki company or subset or what ever. Anyway, it has manga like Princess Princess + (which is the story after Princess Princess) and Train*Train by Eiki Eiki (friend of the Pri.Pri author). I bought both and they each had a promo code in the back telling me to go to http://www.dokidokibooks.com/ to enter the code in the book. I did and after signing into the site it linked me to, I was able to receive the free (+ $8.70 shipping) gift! I'm getting 2 original signed pages from Princess Princess + and 2 from Train*Train!
If any of you like shonen-ai (and I know you do!) you should get the manga and the 'free' gift! Train*Train has been pretty awesome so far and Princess Princess + was pretty cute!

I have a feeling the shipping fee is because they are coming from Japan. So expect it to take a long time. Customs is not exactly quick these days. xd

I dunno about that. Customs has been pretty quick for me and I've had things come from both Korea and Australia. Usually only takes a week or two.
[EDIT]
It's actually shipping from California. You could have chosen to pick up the pages from the store but it'd have cost me more to get there that to ship lol.

In that case the price is probably because the artists are getting a cut of that price, which makes it not free (technically). The thing is, DMP still has to pay her for the artwork and (maybe) the autograph. So if they didn't want to pay for that all on their own, they just tell you that the shipping needs to be more than it actually does.
People do that all the time...

That and it was practically next day shipping! I got them today! I'll post photos in a minute!
I'm a little disappointed because they aren't originals. They're copies of signed originals lol. They're on official paper though! lol (you can even see where she wrote the words and they pasted type over it!)
