Don't think I've ever posted in here before, but I figured this was worth sharing with like-minded people. I placed an order for Space Dandy Season 1 Limited Edition (plus the normal season 2 set) during a RightStuf sale more than a month ago, but I must have submitted it right as someone else grabbed the last copy, because it showed up as being out-of-print on my order status page. The support person I talked to said they couldn't confirm if they actually had a copy reserved for me at the time, so I just let it sit for a while. Fast-forward to last week, and a follow-up contact confirms that I was out of luck, so I just cancelled my order. Amazon looked like they were out of reasonably-priced copies, so I poked around on Half.com and found a good deal from a large seller I've used in the past. The package shows up here the other day, but it seems like a much bigger box than would be needed for a normal BD case size. Through some absurd stroke of luck, the seller wound up sending me the Amazon-exclusive Aloha Oe edition, which normally goes for about twice what I paid. Half.com doesn't have a separate category listed for this version, so I guess the seller threw the copies they had into the same listing. I'm not looking this gift horse in the mouth, that's for sure. Very Happy

Took advantage of RSA's garage sale for a few things:

Bubblegum Crisis 2033 Remastered DVD collection -- finally completing my collection of the mainline parts of the BGC/AD Police franchise. This was about the only time I've seen the possibility of any discounts off the $34.99 asking price.
Black Blood Brothers 2-3 -- somehow had disc 1 lying around, so finishing off the series.
Kobato Parts 1-2 -- one of those "blind buys despite having downloaded files sitting around for years" purchases.
Eden of the East DVD -- looks like RSA has finally sold out of the original 2010 DVD release, after having it discounted to $19.99 for a long, long time.

Some Free Comic Book Day sales! Half off, like always:

Ancient Magus' Bride 4
Blue Exorcist 15
Master Keaton 6
My Hero Academia
Not Lives 1
One-Punch Man 6
Real Account 1
Silent Voice 6


Of course, I also bought bunch of american comics. I almost held back by manga accounts, lol! But since the store was nice and neat, I suspect that they got a bunch of manga, but it wasn't quite all out or something, so I'll check in a couple weeks again, I'm sure. And I also got RWBY 3 bluray earlier in the week.

Picked up from Barnes & Noble today:
Let's Dance a Waltz Vols. 2-3
Tsubasa World Chronicle Vol. 2
Alice in the Country of Diamonds Official Visual Fan Book
(this was actually bought by my brother as a belated birthday gift)

I also picked up from Goodwill today:
Sand Chronicles Vols. 1 and 4
Mixed Vegetables Vol. 2


Both series are blind-buys, but luckily they are fully released blind-buys (based on what I had read). Pretty decent condition on them as well!

Went to Half Price Books today. I traded in quite a few things, but then walked out with a couple of new things as well. Among my purchases was some new manga:

Sand Chronicles Vol. 2
Fairy Tail Vols. 31-37


Fairy Tail now has a huge gap I have to fill (I only had up to Volume 14 until today), but over time I suppose it'll get filled. Sadly, I wish the store we visited had some more I was looking for, but eh... maybe the next time we go up there I'll have better luck (although I have no idea when that might be).
