If obis are hard to find, wait until you want all your Japanese albums and books with registration/return card! I find it especially hard for books, since most of the time even if they're included, you don't know until you receive the item, because most sellers don't flip through all the pages looking for that piece of paper. obis are pretty much always on photos so it's not much of a problem, just need to wait patiently for a copy to show up.

There are a few guides where the obi and reg. card, I see it no more than once a year, pretty crazy considering the guide itself isn't rare.

but that's what makes something interesting for collectors: the fact that not everybody has it

Also, let's not talk about those old albums with glued-on-case obis. I thought previous owners did that until I realised it was done at the factory, since it appeared over and over on the same bunch of albums.
