    They had a DOTW for the standard edition a few weeks back. Much as I like CEs, I can’t say that an art box and art cards are worth £15 (or more after EB). That said; I’ve never seen the series, so my expectations are based on the description of Bebop samurai set to bad-guy music. I don’t know...

    Goodbye things...

    I have to ask; what’s the (A) next to To Love Ru (instead of the expected format+region)? Australia? Or one of the ‘it’s official, with hologram!’ Asian DVDs? Or if it’s BR Region A, is that from the US with English subs etc? And because I’m a sucker for BR CEs, how much are you asking for the...

    The series full of sunshine and flowers. 😶 It is one of those essential ‘crafted and structured fable’ types that I do particularly like, but I’ve already got it twice over - otherwise I’d buy it again.

    They do have a bit of small print about ‘must have accepts marketing turned on’ with each discount email they send out, so I assume there’s a setting in peoples accounts somewhere that might be worth toggling?

    I can certainly say that it’s been a minimum of £50 for at least a couple of years now, for any sale (Xmas, spring, summer…) - for the standard newsletter codes. (un)limited OTOH has never had a minimum spend for the 15% Its not normally a problem for me, as I tend to just dump half the sale...

    I’m assuming the (Lupin6) listing that popped up on MVMs site for £31.49 is the standard edition, with a release date of 1 week later than AtA.

    I thought they were supposed to be going back to digipaks? What happened to that? Still the best option IMHO. That said; I would appreciate the extra efficiency of thinner cases when they’re in an outer box (plus booklet and such): A 15mm Amaray holding just a disc or two doesn’t really add any...

    For the last month-and-a-bit, the checkout at MVM just gives an error for me when doing the ‘contacting card provider’ thing: I can get it to work if I use a somewhat more obscure older browser (that lets me spoof the user agent), which has the added bonus of not actually doing that ‘security...

    Can’t say I see any difference in the products or categories on the Zavvi site. If I hadn’t known to look, I wouldn’t have noticed it now states ‘Zavvi group’ instead of ‘the hut group’. Perhaps I should just be optimistic that they’re free to improve?

    I’m guessing it’s because it’s got double the art cards than it was designed to have. The (AoL) product page only states 4. But the disc case also measures 15mm thick (ELVE-1A 4-button smooth front), so I’ve just done the obvious thing and swapped it for an Amaray.

    Never seen it, but will try to enjoy. Only it’s jammed into the outer box so tight that it took quite some effort to extract the contents. And I think if I put it back, it’ll never come out again. Anyone else having this issue, or just me?

    Isn’t there a VAT exemption for repairs and replacements? Obviously I don’t know the specifics of Belgium customs, but there at least used to be something for goods in/out of UK

    I don’t think I’ll cancel mine until I win. I’m not that confident.

    I thought I recognised the synopsis. I probably picked it up last time round, but didn’t get round to watching it. Need to check before re-ordering!
