Does Blood- posting in a thread about Blood+ negate the existence of this thread?

Weren't the boxsets always expensive before they went OOP?

They were like $70-80 on Amazon, that's for a season, so it was like $2 an episode. They didn't cost that much, but higher then what we're normally used to.

This triplicate thread was a zero even before I got here. Wink Jesus, do people actually think there is a "Ye Olde Reasonably Priced OOP Online Retailer" out there? Rolling Eyes Hey, anyone know where I can get Fate/ Stay Night brand new for, like, $30? Rolling Eyes Rolling Eyes

DVDPlanet.com

Courtesy of some sort of unadvertised Viz Media sale (also @ DeepDiscount.com) and the upcoming MSRP reduction (from $69.97 to $24.98).

Will ship in 5-10 business days (which means they are currently not in-stock)

I think we have a new business there!! I can see going to potential investors with your business plan now.

"For most of our stock we will buy up shows that don't sell and store them until there is a demand." "For everything else, we will buy at internet prices and sell at reasonable ones." (That is buy high and sell low)

I'm sure people will rush to invest.

When I saw the deal on Death Note, I quickly made sure to order. I know I am going to have to wait a bit for it to come back into stock but I can wait for such a good deal.

I remember when I got them for $25 each two years ago and thought that was a great deal. Blood- thought it was pretty sweet too. It's so cute how he used to use my whole name back then.

Ordered that Death Note deal. I don't care how long it takes for them to get more stock; that deal is unbeatable.

I've been waiting for a good price on those Death Note boxsets. I didn't like it well enough to want to spend much on it, but I've been thinking a rewatch would be fun and this is a great deal.

Thanks for posting it. Anime smile

Heads up to my fellow Canadians, Amazon.ca is selling Inuyasha Limited Edition Movies Boxset for a mere $21.99 and it is eligable for free shipping with a $25+ purchase. If you took advantage of the crazy Rightstuf Viz sale this would be a great way to complete your collection.

Thanks for the head's up, Rukiia! I ordered it along with Angel & Faith: Live Through This Volume 1 (which I was going to get anyway) to get free shipping.
