I was actually just looking through these sale items when I noticed this topic. There's a load of damn good deals there, and since it's gonna be going on for almost an entire month, I've got plenty of time to nab some of 'a that shit.

It's finally our time, Darker than Black. Twisted Evil

This might just be as good a time as any to order Phantom ~ Requiem for the Phantom. I had claimed that I was going to hold my list of things to buy in abeyance for a while, but its more or less inevitable that I'll get it and this seems as good a bargain as is ever likely. Besides, I've gone too far with Koichi Mashimo not to, and I could happily bundle it with buying a birthday gift for my mother.

That Kenichi Season 1 set is mighty tempting. Too bad Season 2 was not included in the sale.

It's not only Funimation, there is a sale on pretty much all the anime on the site.

Here is a link for details.

Got this link from somewhere else.

If you look on the right side of the front page you wil see something about a comic-con sale, this is that sale, and it includes superhero stuff as well as anime & manga.

Ah cool. I've been meaning to pick up the second half to Seto no Hanayome and now is as good a time as any to finally own Trigun. Thanks for the info.

Awsome... Got lots of stuff here that I would pounce on and buy instantly. But, Amazon.com wont ship to Taiwan. So screw it.

And I see Princess Corpse is still expensive as ever even after discount.

Sigh. These sales kill me because I can't participate in them due to being in Canada. I mean technically I could, but the shipping fees wipe out any savings. For example, I tested what it cost me to buy Darker Than Black. It's $22.99 US. I don't have an American address so I can't take advantage of free super saver shipping. So add $7.98 for shipping plus $3.08 for something called "Import Fees Deposit" (whatever the hell that is) for a grand total of $34.05. With my GotAnime membership at TRSI plus getting free shipping if I order $150 worth of stuff (which I always do), I can get the same title for $33.74.

Horrible timing. So much stuff I want to buy (like Soul Eater and Initial D), but I have to save up for Comic-con. Sad

Of course this sale starts and over the weekend I ordered Eden of the East for a bit more than what the sale is going on for. Oh well, bat timing on my part.
