Ok some of these are normally upwards of $35 page says %10 off, but the price is all the same:

Choose from:
Last Exile 1-3 -I can HIGHLY reccomend this!
Technolyze Vol 1 and Vol 1 Collectors with Box($35)
Heat Guy J 1-4


Smoking deal, if you ask me. Legal anime never looked so cheap.

I highly recommend Heat Guy J. It's got a modern look but has an Old school feel. Great stuff. Also, the version on MTV is mangled, so you have to see it on DVD to appreciate it.

Thanks OP!

Yeah, honestly i found this last night while searching for deals on best buy's website.

I just ordered Texhnolyze, as i have watched thru Last Exile twice now.
I will check out Heat Guy J at my rental store - 2 rentals for $3, every title known to man.

I got in on this last night, really hoping they decide to honor this since the series are some good stuff.

Yeah, when I saw this post, it was already dead. Cheap anime is so rare, wish I got in on it. Glad though that it actually worked for some people!

i ordered a total of 9 titles, at 8.99 each would be 80.91.
after the 10% discount and adding tax (7%) i had 1 title at $8.44, 7 at $8.43, and 1 at $8.42 for a total of $75.87 shipped. 3 are still on backorder.

heat guy j 1-5 (1 is a box set)
last exile 1-3 (1 is a box set)
and the technolyze box

Got my Technolyze LE.

I thought the series really sucks. There were only 3 speaking lines in the first episode. Not my type of anime, it's no wonder i didnt catch it when it was on fansubs.

For $9 it's even a rip off. :(
