How much would you pay for TMNT manga?

I'm currently in a position where I could get some of the old TMNT manga imported. But it wouldn't be cheap and I'd need to know that I could recoup most, preferably all of the cost to be able to do it. It'd probably be a minimum of $10/issue + shipping.

Here's a sample of what I'm talking about:

I'd be interested. I'd probably go for 1 or 2 issues.

I'm interested in the issue with ray from the toon on the cover, I'd need to know what the others are about though.

They're all adaptations of old toon episodes. The one in the bottom right corner is an adaptation of the 3rd movie.

I might be interested in one or two myself, even if the prospect of owning a TMNT book I wouldn't be able to read disturbs me. It bothers me enough that I can't read the text on packaging of the mini mutants I recently won on e-bay.

Looks like one is "It Came From Beneath the Sewers" (top right).

No promises on anything, but I'll possibly have some of these to offer within a month or two.

I'd go for the one with Leo on the cover holding his sword. Let me know if you're interested in shopping that one because I'll definitely take it.

As previously stated, it is an adaptation of the 3rd movie (and quite a hilarious one).

I'd totally buy a few of those! They'd be great to bring into my Japanese class! I mean, $10 for an issue wouldn't be too bad, I guess.

Any of those left? I'm not sure I'd want just any, but translating one or two could be fun.

Cool. I've spent some time importing manga, so I know what a hassle it can be. The $10 is a fair bit more than the original retail, but given how long they've been OOP, I think its pretty fair, especially when you factor in the scarcity of them available for import. Heaven knowns, I can't even find them when I look.

No promises on the $10/each bit. It depends on what the final import cost comes to.
