Yes,
Mandarake! That was the name of the Umeda store! I couldn't remember till you said the name. So it's still there? That's good to know. But they didn't have what you are looking for? If you don't mind saying, just what are you looking for? Because Mandarake is (well, was) one of the best stocked used manga shops I knew of in Japan. If what you are looking for is still fairly new, have you tried asking a new manga shop to special order it for you?
I just (re-)learned the meaning of "shotengai" myself (I've forgotten so much Japanese in 10 years). It is the word for the covered shopping arcades.
