They started phasing out dvd releases years ago. The only recent dvd titles have been dvd only and if a blu ray is available it's only blu ray.

They have DVD sales every so often at this sort of price range (probably about the same time as it was last year).
But they will be aware DVD's take up storage that could be used for other content like Blu-ray and CE's which are considered higher value merchandise and more cost effective storage because of that.
But yes as WMD said they are phasing DVD out where possible but they do still have the odd DVD only releases, depends on there options and if there is an already authored Blu-ray release.

Was looking for something else and price checking a few things after browsing Deep discount and WOWHD which both add VAT and deep dscount adds postage but is in dollars, so sometimes simlar prices hence checked otaku.co.uk.
But I find Otaku.co.uk often do a very close price match to rightstuf for some items (so in this case I assume it's price matching Haganai and code breakers as they are in rightstufs clearance and have been for a while) and honestly after tax and postage from rightstuf it's way cheaper.
I have a search bookmark for otaku.co.uk which gives me a bit more of a browse catalog, (unfortunatly I don't like their browse feature or I can never get it too be helpful for me)
But I believe they are recent price drops (but haven't been tracking them, but also pretty good prices considering they are imports) and as you say prices may change after a day or so (I'm guessing depends on where they source it from).

Seriously if no one has already got Nozaki-kun then they really need to get it.

Yep I got that email too and was kinda tempted by it as well.
Some of the rightstuf Limited edition for around that $10 mark maybe similar prices at otaku.co.uk (especially if that the only item your buying as no tax or shipping cost), but you've got a fair whack of extra with it so shouldn't be too differnt
Still undecided my self on if I want to go for it only done I think the $5 box before (and it was just a free with the order), although the item was reasonable (Part 1 from the new world Blu-ray)

CEX can be very hit & miss when it comes to Anime. Some titles can be reasonably priced compared to buying new, although sometimes those titles can be limited stock (as generally if they are selling it cheap, they purchased it cheap and some people might not want to sell at such a low price). Other titles can be nearly the same price (sometimes more) than buying it new from the likes of Amazon or other online retailers.

Hmm, does this count as a bargain?
Ordered a DVD from Australia on eBay. In the time it took the seller to go to the post office, realise the postage would be almost as much as the DVD, and rush back home and cancel the sale claiming the DVD was "lost", the exchange rate was such that I was refunded a whole 8p more than I'd paid!

yeh their prices are all over the place, but they do adjust them regularly depending on ... I have no idea, it feels just as random!
so I have found it worthwhile to keep a wantlist on their site sorted by lowest price to keep an eye out for when things get to "bargain" status
Kakegurui Season 1 Collectors Limited Edition is only £18.58 on Amazon UK
I seem to recall this being much more expensive from Anime Limited themselves when it was first announced. Like 35 quid right? Its 42 quid on their webstore right now. Seems like a good offer to me.

Yep that offers been up a few times and certain seemed like a good deal (I bought it for around that price when first saw the offer), Hive.co.uk was doing a similar price a while back/ pretty much on release and then amazon I think price matched it, but no idea where they are price matching it from now.
The only differnce is if you order from All The Anime you get the exclusive deck of playing cards. But as they have also just announced the standard edition on their site for I think £20 the CE for that price is a no brainer.

Yeah, it's a very good deal. I preordered it directly from Anime Limited for slightly less than 25 quid with the holiday coupon so that price is a steal.
