    UK Anime Distributor MVM Entertainment Discussion Thread

    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...

    UK Anime Blu-ray & DVD Bargains

    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!

    Hmm. Looks pretty. Nice trinkets. Question: I would appear to have an old DVD set (really must get round to some of my backlog!) - is it worth upgrading? I note the HMV listing only specifies 7hrs of bonus content (and just the 85 series episodes), so there’s at least a couple of hours...

    Pretty sure I’ve already got the CE, but it’s nice to see they’re including both the standard and CE as options in the offer.

    Merry Christmas, all. Yup, my last two items from the sale turned up today. A little over a month, but I guess it’s the busy time of year, and I know the boats from Australia tend to be a little slow.

    UK Anime Distributor Anime Limited Discussion Thread

    I’ve still got an ’unfulfilled’ xmas order, assumed to be sent by FedEx, where the last update was ‘label created’ in the early hours of 4th dec. Don’t think anything’s OOS, so hopefully they catch up this week.

    UK Anime Distributor Crunchyroll/Funimation/Manga UK Discussion Thread

    Expectation; send out a sticker to cover the feature description on the case with a version lacking the ’dolby vision’ text. 😶 For new / unsold stock, they’ll give an intern a black marker pen… Why not fix all known issues, if you’re going to press new discs presumably from a new or updated...

    They only just had this in their Xmas £20 mystery box bundle thing (it‘s also been DOTW before, but several months ago). I guess partly because there are a larger number of ‘recently on offer’ titles, there’s an increased likelihood of familiar ones popping up. But it’s something of an addiction...

    UK Anime Christmas Sales for 2023 [Anime Ltd's 12 Days of Xmas + More]

    I don’t think it quite counts as a major sale event, but AllTheAnime email states ‘surprise sale’ with 10% off until 5pm 2nd (15% for unlimited). The site gives the code of GOODBYE23 that appears to be missing from the email. Multiple use? And there still seems to be a MVM sale section featured...

    No. It’s a mistake in the configuration. If you look at the discounts in the basket, you’ll note that the same promotional reduction is applied twice per item. The system is set up to find the cheapest item in the set, then discount all items in the set proportionally (so you’re best off getting...

    In other words; generated by (presumably software equivalent of) dropping a rubber glove full of jelly onto a pile of keyboards. 😬 FWIW; I’m not (really) complaining. I mean, there might be a benefit in being able to derive something like the order date from the dispatch email, or have the...

    Just checked, and mine has shipped too. It doesn’t really help that the only ‘info’ in their emails is the order ‘reference’, which is essentially resembles what you get if someone randomly splurges their hand across a keyboard. I had assumed it was just some DOTW, but a nice shiny CE is always...

    UK Anime Christmas Sales for 2023 [Anime Ltd's 12 Days of Xmas + More]

    To chime in with the above reply; Have Have Have Have Have (albeit mostly BR versions) And to add to the discussion; I already have BR versions of most. AFAIK, is DVD only (otherwise I need to upgrade my copy!). The titles were indeed both in the clearance sale, albeit some of the priciest...
