Uh, I buy Onigiri in NYC at Dainobu and I'm pretty sure it's $2.99 MAX $4.99. I think in many metros they could have a market esp if they did some sort of anime tie in.

I've used Fast Mail, liked it a lot, but I think at the time the pricing wasn't the best. I then used some other platform that was quite "old school" that is recommended here. The Mail Admin was very opinionated which le
