Today, we had three visitors come by our office.

First, Robotech.com webmaster Steve came by to pick up some IKEA Billy bookshelves. We had a lot of them in our warehouse when AnimeGamers.com sold import books. But we broke them down two years ago b/c we stopped selling import manga online and they’ve been sitting in our warehouse ever since. I decided to get rid of them, so he took four of them.

We still have lots more (maybe 10-15?), so hopefully we’ll get more people to come by and pick them up.

Then former Broccoli USA sales staffer Mark came by.
He had wanted couple of the “bought for Anime Expo, used it once & need to get rid of” thingies we have lying around in the office. We tend to have a lot of these… speaker sets, walkie talkies, lighting equipment, etc.

Since it’s Thursday, there’s a Farmer’s Market just a block away. We always eat a chicken wrap from a vendor called Carbon Grill. The chicken wraps are really good! Anyway, Mark had come by to get a wrap w/ Broccoli USA staffer Dennis & freelance staffer Dee.

Before Mark left, I gave him a goodie bag full of promo goods from the marketing room. He likes Galaxy Angel, so I tried to grab as many Galaxy Angel related stuff… and he asked for the Galaxy Angel game samples we had received from Broccoli Japan. I didn’t think anyone would want those, so I was getting ready to throw it away. Good thing he wanted to give them a new home!

And voice actor Stephanie came by to pick up some audio equipment. We had a bunch of equipment back when we had a sound studio (in 2000-2001), and I never had a chance to sell them off. The equipment needed to go, so they’re going to their new home too. Something about giving them to ImaginAsian staffer Justin…

Anyway, none of them had heard about the dissolution… since I haven’t had time to contact people yet. But I’ve been getting lots of phone calls & emails. I’ll respond to each of you, I promise!
