It's like flower shops next to cemetaries or the little shops in train stations. They all boost prices as customers are guarenteed due to convenience.

And the exact same is said for the food and drink, people will pay the hideous prices because its either that or a 10 minute walk to the nearest (cheaper) store. Damn businesses! grrrr.

Then he shortchanged my friend when she bought stuff, and the stuff she bought was not even proper yaoi (no action, it was soft eyecandy at best), despite the fact he had claimed it was 'hot'. We were a bit disappointed.

was the yelling really neccessary when he had that huge rainbow coloured Yaoi banner behind him anyway?

Honestly, I had thought of going over to have a look at the hentai section next to it, but that guy's yelling put me off - I had a bit of a headache already, and seriously, who yells that kind of thing with kids under ten around?

well considering there a more screaming fan girls around its more than likely he'd get more business by yelling yaoi instead of yuri, although I do believe he yelled about Hentai over all a bit later on?
You think anything will be done about this over all?

I dunno, the yaoi stall was new. So it's possible it'll be allowed back in. But i hear that the yaoi was hardly explicit, which is probably why it was let into expo in the first place.

Yeah but he was only obnoxious about the yaoi.
And wasn't the guy next to him the one handling most of the hentai?
