Part 2 is still in their clearance section at £7.99 Combining two parts into a single set is usually just a rebox of the same discs. So although more compact is kinda nice for a non-ce, I don’t think I’m missing out.

@MVM can I ask you rethink your use of A4 bubble mailers for packing multiple “standard” cases? I’ve now had at least five shipments in a row where at least one case has suffered damage or cracks, and I’m simply going to run out of replacements if this keeps up. I think it wasn’t previously...

That was one of the thoughts I had too, but I’m not inclined to make a pilgrimage to Coventry to find out. I’m no CEX expert, but I think that policy has been in place for years if not decades. And seeing as their terms state “we do not buy unboxed Optical Media (DVDs, Games, Blu-rays, CDs...

The three seasons of “Is The Order A Rabbit” are listed as DOTW now, which I’m quite happy about. I’m not going to pretend these are epic works of great importance, but I’ve been locked into a battle of wits with CEX after finding I missed S2 last time round: Place order, gets cancelled...

The Dungeon S4 part 2 (standard) doesn’t appear to be on the anime-on-line website? But part 1 is. I assume(d) that being a “standard” would get reprinted as needed, and would indirectly benefit from the “halo effect” of the CE release - perhaps there’s a nefarious plan to release a combined...

I ended up importing the Sentai LE a while back. The description for this set (hardcover book, novel and art cards) seems to be almost identical, aside from the shadow-box scene kit (and presumably the big outer box plus ribbon). The web description misses out ep.0, but zoom in on the image and...

i need someone to ask if there is hopefully a reason how and why the levelling and spacing between four identical picture frames avoids any consistency. Even if it’s just that one eye is higher than the other, and a wooden leg means you beer to the right. Or just to irritate people like me…

This just goes to show that your online store is rather in need of updating to have some form of stock (or eta) indicator. Or at least some such detail in the orders section (beyond “unfulfilled”/“fulfilled”). I looked up the aforementioned (RE:Zero Season 2, Durarara and Cardcaptor Sakura)...

Does one of the requirements of the role involve occasionally kicking the order management server, to prevent the queue from getting stuck? Otherwise @Hanners are you running another competition for who has the longest dispatch time from this sale? What’s the prize? There didn’t appear to be...

If you look at the other text, it seems more as if the “L” is simply missing: The kanji underneath lines up with the “o” and the “e” in both cases. The “TV Animation lines up with the start of the first letter… Where the “L” is missing, this shifts the end along to the dot in the “i” (lateral...

It’s random. Seems there’s no FIFO organisation, despite averaging less than 100 orders per day. I’m still waiting for them to notice an order placed on the 7th, so over a week (and counting) to dispatch, plus a few days delivery… At the other extreme; a single (flash sale) item got posted out...

MVM released the three “movies” on BR and DVD (Awakening/Racer/Dream) individually, then in the “collection” trilogy. The series is on R1 dvd (US) by tokyopop, either individually or as a set.

What’s the likelihood of someone interested enough in spending £225 on Naruto not already having purchased at least half of the volumes already? Some dvd set hold-outs? It would be interesting to know how many of these get sold. To add to the figures and calculations: £70 off is about 22% £250...

This prompted me to watch the copies I got a little while ago for £1 more from rarewaves (minus 10% I guess). Nice price, but I already have it. I feel I should point out that there’s only 6 episodes (25min) per set (3 per disc), so you literally need both parts to make up the full 12 ep...

The email states £69.99 At Xmas s1 was £29.99, and s2 (EB) £39.99, so the flash sale is 1p more expensive. You’re probably better off waiting for s2
