I hesitated a LOT about purchasing this from yahoo.jo auctions or not, where I found it for 4800jpy (instead of the original price of 3000jpy, but that can't be helped, it's an exclusive rare item...), but I decided not to in the end, because when I looked at it objectively (as objectvely as I can that is), the ONE thing I truly wanted from this whole thing was...the new SxS illustration. It didn't feel justified to spend 100usd (price of item+proxy buyer fees+shipping) for just this, if the actually content of the set wasn't what I was after. If I had the money, I'd rather add up 20-30usd and purchase the 3 artbooks above!
Contains:
->the front cover of the box with SakuraxSyaoran is a new illustration, furthermore, the carrying case is a keeper since it's made of solid plastic, I suppose it meant for children to put their things inside if they wish to? I had plastic cases like that I played around with when I was little.
As you can see on the pics bellow, there are illustrations on the front, back and also 'under the front', when you open it.
-file folder (double faced)
-notebook
-double faced plastic board (some sort of support to write on?)
-pencil case (double faced)
-eraser
-ruler
-pen

CCS desktop calendar:

The cover of this school desktop calendar is a new illustration, all the other pages (12 months/pages) aren't, you can see them in my previous post about it HERE
I actually own this calendar now, I received it last week but still didn't scan the first page because I've been sick (caught my brother's flu...), but I will do so soon enough and post the HQ scan on my LJ ^__^ I will only do the cover because as said above, all the other pages are old illustrations from 10 years ago you can find everywhere online.
