fuck you Right Stuf. I just spent 53 dollars on this stuff right here:

  • Beck DVD 1 (Hyb) + Artbox
  • Beck DVD 2 (Hyb)
  • Beck DVD 3 (Hyb)
  • Beck DVD 4 (Hyb)
  • Beck DVD 6 (Hyb)
  • Suzuka DVD 1 (Hyb) + Artbox
  • Suzuka DVD 2 (Hyb)
  • Suzuka DVD 3 (Hyb)
  • Suzuka DVD 5 (Hyb)
  • Suzuka DVD 6 (Hyb)
Now I have to spend 50 or a 100 more dollars? Dammit. I guess I am making another order tonight when I get home from work. Son of a bitch.
 
Got Air Gear 1-6
Hell Girl 1-6 w/ box
Full Metal Panic Second Raid w/ box 1-4
Devil May Cry dvd 2 w/ box
Tenjo Tenge 1,3-8
Gunslinger Girl DVD 1 (Hyb) + Artbox + Cloth Poster

So much for Deep Discount sale
 
fuck RightStuf, normally I have $100 set aside for these sales, but SDCC is next week so my money is for that. WHY DO YOU HAVE TO COMPETE WITH SDCC? Ugh. They lost a sale from me this time.
 
Is Battle Athletes Victory any good? I recall it getting a recommendation from Animeondvd.com (then again so did Niea Under 7). I've considering getting it in past sales or from the bargain bin , but I've never pulled the trigger.
 
I actually have Vandread vol 1,2,4 and Vol 1 + box of the 2nd season. To be honest Vandread is pretty much there to fill out the 10 DVDs I need.

Bah, Bandai announced that they have Kannagi and that Rightstuf will have copies of vol 1 available tomorrow... after the Bandai Sale is over.
 
[quote name='the_punisher']Who are you!?!?!?![/QUOTE]

There really isn't much of interest. Aside from things I already own, I only kinda want Welcome to the NHK and R.O.D. but thanks to the DeepDiscount 25% off sale, I'm sitting this one out.

So, what did you buy?
 
It says a lot about the price of complete sets nowadays that 5$ a DVD often isn't a great price. Heck, 25% of the items in the sale are listed for 4$ a piece anyhow...

Also, in the bargain bin there's
Dokkoida!? DVD Box Set (Hyb) $15.00
 
Anyone know where i put the coupon code for the 25/$100 sale? I've bought anime from here b4 and am afraid i'll end up paying full price if i continue going further in the checkout.

I clicked proceed to checkout and it showed the 4 steps thing. (i clicked out since i don't want to pay full price) Do i put the coupon code in one of the steps?

thnx in advance. This thread is great.
 
Usually I would go for the 25 for $100 offer, but there weren't alot of DVDs I didn't have this time around. So it's been tough to narrow my list down to 10 DVDs for $50, but here are what I got:

Full Metal Panic! The Second Raid DVD 1 + Artbox (last one!)
Full Metal Panic! The Second Raid DVD 2
Full Metal Panic! The Second Raid DVD 3
Full Metal Panic! The Second Raid DVD 4
Ragnarok DVD 1
Ragnarok DVD 2
Ragnarok DVD 3
This Ugly Yet Beautiful World DVD 1 + Artbox
This Ugly Yet Beautiful World DVD 2
This Ugly Yet Beautiful World DVD 3

Still a pretty good deal though. ;)
 
I only placed one order for the moment.

Placing another order in a day or two as well. Plan on getting the rest of ROD the TV, Pumpkin Scissors, Trigun, and I'm not sure about the rest.
 
[quote name='the_punisher']Who are you!?!?!?![/QUOTE]
I'm picky on what I'm spending my money on. I already own most of the stuff I'm interested in. And some of the stuff I want only has a few random volumes available. I also have some Figures I pre-ordered that will ship within the next few week and then some DVD/Blu-rays I pre-ordered should be on the way soon(Including Kannagai and some stuff from the Bandai sale). As I said before I'm probably just going to be getting Shuffle 1-6 and some Vandread(To finish up my collection). But I'm going to check the list of stuff one more time before I place an order.

GuilewasNK: Why would you want something as bad as Divergence Eve?
 
[quote name='Razzuel']PrarieD0g shouldn't be the only person purchasing Kurau; there needs to be more Kurau purchases![/QUOTE]

what would you compare it to?
 
[quote name='refusedchaos']what would you compare it to?[/QUOTE]

Aww, now I get the tough questions. Uh, I guess I would say that if you like any of Bones' other shows, then you would probably like Kurau.

I am not really sure what to compare it to.
 
[quote name='PrarieD0G']Placing another order in a day or two as well. Plan on getting the rest of ROD the TV, Pumpkin Scissors, Trigun, and I'm not sure about the rest.[/QUOTE]

Pumpkin Scissors is pretty mediocre, plus volume 6 isn't on sale. You're gonna have fun hunting down NHK 6, too. Be sure to get Jubei-chan 2 and Fruits Basket if you don't already have those!
 
Finally! I was able to grab the seemingly last copies of the Second Raid art box and Moon Phase Vol 3. Here is my first order:

  • Full Metal Panic! The Second Raid DVD 1 (Hyb) + Artbox
  • Full Metal Panic! The Second Raid DVD 2 (Hyb)
  • Full Metal Panic! The Second Raid DVD 3 (Hyb)
  • Full Metal Panic! The Second Raid DVD 4 (Hyb)

I am probably going to be making another order later today.
 
The 10 for $50 is horrible...!!! So much so I'm actually a little upset at them for calling it a sale. They've had most of these at these prices for a long time, meaning they were unable to drop these off on people, and if you get 10 $4 items, it's still $50?

But I guess some of the more notable stuff are
Gravion Zwei (paid about $12 for mine, not that great, but the first season was ok)
Mai-Hime (bought for barely more than this deal months and months ago)
Mai-Otome (bought for barely more than this deal months and months ago)
Welcome to the NHK (I might bite just for this, but doubt it)
Yu Yu Hakusho sets (but only sets 3 and 4 are available)
Chrono Crusade (but vol 1 isn't available)
Gunslinger Girl (definitely worth it at $15 or $12)

I bought Ah! My Goddess season 2 and Air Gear for $25 each at Best Buy, so I don't think it's a good deal buying them separately.
Burst Angel thinpack will run you about the same price.
They've had Detective Conan thinpacks on sale for similar prices before too, and take up less room.
Cowboy Bebop thinpack of commonly $30, so that's not worth buying separately either, imo.

The more I look through the list, the more annoyed I'm getting at this "sale". I really don't think it's worth it unless you're doing 25 for $100, and even that's barely worth it, and most would be bad impulse buys.

I love rightstuf, I have a membership and spent hundreds with them, but this is horrid.

You mean you are mad that rightstuf's sale gives you approximately the same prices as bestbuy had during their best anime sale ever? A sale that was a clearance at select stores only and had extremely limited inventory? Pretty faulty logic there.

Ah! My Goddess season 2 and Air Gear are both $50 now. They were $25 during a clearance sale at select stores only that many people couldn't get. Rightstuf is offering them to everyone at basically the same price with no tax and you bitch that they aren't beating their price?

Its a sale, the prices are damn good for many of those items, especially as many people prefer the full sized dvds to thinkpaks which for many shows are constructed poorly compared to the original or missing features or have a higher episode compression ratio.

Uh, sorry, but you are wrong there. I saved 82 dollars from this buy-25-dvds-for-100 sale. How can you simply brush something like that off as "barely worth it?"

The only thing horrid about Right Stuf is that they never stop taking my damn money. I honestly have no idea how the hell they make a profit when they have sales all the damn time.

yeah, this sale does have some pretty inconsistent pricing (10 for 50 while most of the items are around 4, so ostensibly speaking, you can get 10 for 40)
the YYH versions you got are being phased out (or have been phased out already) by funimation-that's a 8 set collection (by that I mean the series are divided into 8 retail sets) whereas the newer one is a 4 set collection (basically they bundled the 2 sets into one season)
 
For anyone thinking about buying Welcome to the NHK, Red Garden, or Pumpkin Scissors:

You're not going to be able to find volume 6 for any of these shows on clearance. They were never released in normal retail stores, and were produced in very limited quantities for sale at a handful of online anime retailers. Hold out for the complete box sets coming out in the next few months.

No, I'm not mad about that. I know not everyone got those prices, and for those, they are pretty good prices. I was getting mad going through the list a second time to pick out stuff people might like, and finding most things being $4 and $5 without the sale, thus making the sale almost a non-event (ESPECIALLY if you don't buy 25), unless you made it a point to pick up $7+ items only, or are happy with incomplete series, which would probably cost you as much or more to complete than buying the Viridians (see KL's post above).

For example:
Moon Phase boxed set $28.49, the 6 DVDs with 10for$50 would be $30.
Mushishi Viridian $28.79 with current 25% off code, cheaper unless you do 25 for $100
Full Metal Panic Second Raid 22.99,

etc...

I'm just trying to point out this is mostly not as good a deal as they usually run.

While that's sadly true, some of us (ie me) like having the complete set with the artboxes and volumes, so i'll just have to wait for a good deal on amazon or eBay one day. You're so negative :p.

Yeah, I already knew about the Vol. 6's. That's pretty annoying though. Maybe I'll pass on Pumpkin Scissors, but the name sounds so awesome, haha. I don't have Fruits Basket either, so I guess that would be good. I haven't seen the first Jubei-chan yet, but this seems like a good deal for the second season. Our interests aren't exactly always the same though, hehe, so I'm a little wary on that one.

Maybe I should cancel my order? If I could get Vol. 6 of NHK for about $20, I'd be happy. But even that seems hard.

Ah! My Goddess season 2 and Air Gear are both $50 now. They were $25 during a clearance sale at select stores only that many people couldn't get. Rightstuf is offering them to everyone at basically the same price with no tax and you bitch that they aren't beating their price?[/QUOTE]

Ah! My Goddess S2 $28.79 from Deepdiscount, versus $30 with 10 for $50
Air Gear $29.17, versus $30 with 10 for $50

I'm not trying to piss people off, I just seriously think this barely a sale, which is very very lacking compared to most sales rightstuf usually has.
 
[quote name='elessar123']No, I'm not mad about that. I know not everyone got those prices, and for those, they are pretty good prices. I was getting mad going through the list a second time to pick out stuff people might like, and finding most things being $4 and $5 without the sale, thus making the sale almost a non-event (ESPECIALLY if you don't buy 25), unless you made it a point to pick up $7+ items only, or are happy with incomplete series, which would probably cost you as much or more to complete than buying the Viridians (see KL's post above).

For example:
Moon Phase boxed set $28.49, the 6 DVDs with 10for$50 would be $30.
Mushishi Viridian $28.79 with current 25% off code, cheaper unless you do 25 for $100
Full Metal Panic Second Raid 22.99,

etc...

I'm just trying to point out this is mostly not as good a deal as they usually run.[/QUOTE]

Alright, that's good for those people who are satisfied with thinpaks or Viridian collections, but I hate thinpaks and Viridian collections. Singles—and if the art box is possible—are the only things I buy. I don't care if they are more expensive than the thinpaks, Viridian collections, or stack packs.

[quote name='the_punisher']82? I saved over $230 >.
 
[quote name='PrarieD0G']Yeah, I already knew about the Vol. 6's. That's pretty annoying though. Maybe I'll pass on Pumpkin Scissors, but the name sounds so awesome, haha.

FB is the viridian collection with awful packaging, and no artbox :cry:. Also, shouldn't you be watching Jubei-Chan before buying the sequel? Just my opinion ;).

[quote name='Razzuel']I have only bought 25 items so far, so it's not surprising. Didn't you buy 100 dvds or some insane bullshit with the intent to sell most of it?[/QUOTE]

I saved $230 on one order. Don't patronize me, boy.

What, does that mean you saved 230 dollars on 25 items? If so then can you give me some of the drugs you are taking because that doesn't sound possible. How about you list all the stuff you bought then?

or $24 with 25 for $100. So basically their prices are almost identical or cheaper to Deep Discount's during their massive sale. What exactly is your problem?

I mean seriously do you expect rightstuf's prices to beat every single sale every other site ever has? There prices are damn competitive even in the examples you provided.

Are you so ashamed of yourself that you have to hide behind this tough guy facade?

Just list your purchases, yo.

I specially said:
I really don't think it's worth it unless you're doing 25 for $100, and even that's barely worth it, and most would be bad impulse buys.
and
...and finding most things being $4 and $5 without the sale, thus making the sale almost a non-event (ESPECIALLY if you don't buy 25)

Nowhere did I say 25 for $100 isn't a better deal.

And btw, as a side note, I saw the first 4 volumes of FLAG (with Zegapain) at Biglots a lot for $3 a pop, and vol 1 with artbox is on sale at rightstuf
 
What exactly do you expect from them? I mean the examples you gave rightstuf's price is within 1% of deep discounts price with the 10 for $50. There prices are extremely close to the sales price of DD and other major retailers. No retailer will ever have the best prices on every single item, its physically impossible to beat everyone on everything. So i'm trying to understand where your hatred seems to come from.

For many shows its cheaper like Tenjho Tenge which DD doesn't even have or FMP: The Second Raid.

Except that Jubei-chan 2 is now out of print, and fuckING FANTASTIC. Buy now, watch later. And the original Fruits Basket singles and artbox are long out of print. Unless you want the thinpak for some reason, there's nothing wrong with the Viridian release. YOU'RE SO NEGATIVE. :p

I just think they should have done a better job by separating the $4-$5 into another sale instead of their normal $4-$5 bargain bin items being part of a 10 for $50 and 25 for $100 sale. It's not a sale unless it's actually less than what you'd pay if you were buying them before, and at $4-$5 for 10 for $50, it's obviously not, since you'd have the free shipping anyways on orders over $49.

And for things I actually want, I would end up paying more than if I just didn't use the sale, other than Welcome to the NHK.

Really? Can you show me this magical place? I could give you a list of examples to be mean and laugh, but how about starting with R.O.D. Find me volumes 2-7 for under $4 apiece, please :p.

1) I know, but no artbox
2) I know the volumes and box are hard to find, but.....
3) I know viridian isn't bad, but......

:cry:

Any chance you could get them for me? At $3 a pop, i'd definitely be willing to pay you for them + shipping + "under-the-table" fee ;).

I got the vol. 1 + artbox, but you wouldn't know that since i continue to ignore people when they ask what i got ;).
 
Jubei-chan 2 is fantastic and a necessary see for everyone claiming to like anime.

Also, what are viridian packs? How are they different from the regular release or thinpaks?
