I'm really looking to buy a hachi. But being where I am, it's really really hard to purchase one. It's hard to find one in the states. Any advice?

You probably won't. Best is to read up on what to look for and take a knowledgeable friend with you when you go looking. Nothing beats an extra set of eyes.

I'll probably ask my cousin. He has a crazy sick rolla. I'm just obsessing over how bad I want one. Probably try to get one stock though... So I can work ground up

i literally worked from the ground up ha ha

if anything find a decent shell and build from there.

The thing is that if I get a shell, it'll take years. My funds are extremely low

I'll definitely give Craiglist a try then. Any other keywords that might be good?
