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

    What’s also been a hassle in the past (and I assume potentially more so for such international orders) is that there’s no sorting applied to the BOGOFs, which means the ‘free’ items are the cheapest in the entire basket. Obviously there’s no incentive to change this if the current method results...

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

    May as well add myself to this list. But mine are apparently being sent via FedEx, so I’m resigned to not getting these for a month or so anyway - after which they’ll be marked as ‘delivered, on time’ to the reception of a company the other side of the country, while still being scanned in at...

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

    I was keeping an eye out, thinking I’d order a small selection of the price dropped even just a little. But if Belle is anything to go by (along with my expectations for a decent price), they don’t seem to have been discounted much if at all. Belle wasn‘t any more expensive several months back...

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

    If you’re referring to the ’both bundles’ discussion from a couple of days back, I can confirm exactly the same titles. So it’s not a deviation, nor any randomness. That is; 9x 15 rated, and 1x PG

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

    Likewise; I can’t complain about the price/value, but the duplicates issue is somewhat more debatable because for the most part, the buyers will be repeat customers (of such boxes). There will essentially be three groups of people looking at the bundles; those who don’t have many titles (so...

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

    I was just going to point that out. Shouldn’t be putting immediate repeats in there IMHO.

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

    I feel better about having spent more, when I realise it was for the three CE sets.

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

    This is one time when my stubborn refusal to buy a set that I know has a better version has paid off. Perhaps the timing is one hour before and after the stated time? 😉

    UK Anime Blu-ray & DVD Bargains

    I’m quite grateful for this: I’ve needed SS+ on Blu for a while now, but this is the first time it’s been ‘cheap’, and I’ve never wanted to pay the full price. Don’t get me wrong - I’m not saying it’s a bad series. It does exactly what it sets out to do pretty effectively (and maintains...

    UK Anime Blu-ray & DVD Bargains

    You say that, but; There are actually preorders in the linked list if you click the banner. And the code appears work at least with the NieA7 CE preorder, making it a few quid cheaper than the EB price. And I’d probably suggest some people may find it worth looking at the fact that titles from...

    UK Anime Blu-ray & DVD Bargains

    I don’t suppose there’s a uk ce hiding somewhere? I mean; I’m pretty sure it’s been a couple of years since I watched this, so more than ‘just a disc’ would be nice. And I don’t want to sound ungrateful for the opportunity to get it cheapish at Amazon‘s expense (hopefully). So, thanks.

    UK Anime Distributor Anime Limited Discussion Thread

    Even if that were to be a factor in the retail price, that’s not the case here: It‘s rather unlikely to be anything more than a BD25 disc at <30mins with no extras. Other releases would span multiple discs and require BD50 dual layers. A quick evaluation of material would be that the CE is the...

    UK Anime Distributor Anime Limited Discussion Thread

    In other words; aware that they’re already pushing it, and deciding to go even further. Related: I’ve just been watching Gurren Lagann. And not only increasing the price, but reducing the content (length) and package quality (booklet, discs, case, who knows what else) No; I’m not buying...

    UK Anime Distributor Anime Limited Discussion Thread

    I like CEs. But yes, £25 (£40 srp) does seem a little steep for what is effectively the length of a single anime episode. Is £25 the EB pricing, or can we expect more of a discount (with this being the ‘normal’ price)? At least it comes with a booklet. Of 16 pages. Make that leaflet. (more...

    GH’s extra Anime: Mostly BR, Mostly sealed, Mostly CEs

    Small update to: remove a couple (I’m striking them out rather than re-upload a new picture!) add VE (memory doll) CE - note that I got this second (or third) hand, and the poster has had blu-tack on the back (but front is ok) I’ll also add a small related ‘add-on‘ section here of Disney...

    I’m glad you’re thinking of me. 😜 I guess I don’t have to order a copy myself, then. Obviously I’ll have to wait a couple of months to watch it, but I have enough others to tide me over.

    I’ll second the comment on JP digipak quality. The quality difference can be noticeable in terms of both the mount/illustration, and the plastic holders themselves. I’ve got a number that include flip trays on the base digipak tray, so you can’t complain about how many they hold either. And...

    UK Anime Distributor Anime Limited Discussion Thread

    “far too much” makes it seem like there’s going to be something of a surplus rather than a shortage. Except that there were probably people panic buying on Amazon (or scalpers intending to cash in on eBay), and Amazon now finds that they’ve sent too many back…
