Since Viz is releasing 30 volumes of One Piece in the next 6 months, I was wondering for myself and the other One Piece fans who see this what the best price was.

So far, the cheapest I have found is $7.49 at RightStuf. (In case you didn't know, Viz's Shonen Jump graphic novels are now retailed at $9.99)
http://www.rightstuf.com/1-800-338-6827/catalogmgr/BcPzQUttG4rmyhieDW/browse/item/84551/4/0/0

Are there any websites or sales that would make the final cost of $37.45 per month (plus shipping and tax) any cheaper? Or is RightStuf the best way for us to go?

Rightstuf is a popular way to go with these sorts of things around here, but Borders does come out with coupons almost every weekend if you sign up for their free thing. At most, they can be 40% off (those are usually pretty rare), but they're usually 25-30% off. Depending on tax and if you get a 40% off coupon, you might be able to get a couple of those for cheaper a month, but you'll probably end up going for TRSI for some of them in the end anyway. Rightstuf will be cheaper if you get $49 worth of stuff ($150 in Canada) for free shipping, so you might want to pre-order a few of those too. It might be easier to pay around $50 every month and a half or so for 7 volumes at a time.

I'm afraid you missed your window of opportunity... TRSI's Viz sale was in October, and was pretty much the best chance to order the lot cheap (My BF will be paying $5.99 a book thanks to my GA discount.)

As it stands right now, you best bet (probably) is to sign up for Borders Rewards and use their 30/40% off coupons to get the books one at a time (30% makes it 6.99 before tax... with tax should it pretty close to the TRSI price.)

While you're doing that, keep an eye on TRSI, who should have another Viz sale around March-ish at the latest (they seem to be every 6 months or so, although it does vary.). Then you can order up whatever you don't already have. watch Amazon too, they do the occasional sale.
