      Okey dokey, I was wondering how many dollars One Piece 46 would add up to. I want to know with shipping over seas to America, and the original price in dollars for the volume. I love Thriller bark, so I want to start collecting it in volume form since America is still at Drum Island. I also was thinking about learning a bit of Japanese so this is good too.
      I'm hoping the price for the book doesn't break the 15 dollar mark. They come out every 3 months or so, but spending 15 dollars is a bit to much. If anyone could do this for me, I would be really grateful.

          The majority of Shonen Jump tankobon (as far as I know) are 311 yen, which is around 2.50 USD. I really have no idea what's a "good" price for shipping, as my experiences buying volumes varied widely.

                Look at amazon, you can see each volume is 410 yen, which if you use the conversion calculator is roughly 3 dollars and 30 cents. I am trying to translate the japanese section for shipping though, and I haven't found anything yet. Seeing as it is over-seas it could be quite a lot for shipping.
                Hope this helps.
                Edit: Apparently this is your lucky day, shipping and handling for Japanese books and other materials is 300 yen for shipping and handling is free.
                So, its $5.80 cents for your grand total, which I believe is $2.20 less than the English volume, earning yourself a great deal. I advise you on ordering the volume soon.
