    Yeah, you have to use a proxy shipping service (I used Shipito, but there are several alternatives), so it's only really worth it if you buy in bulk to mitigate the extra costs. My order came to around £114 in total, but shipping to the UK was about £33, while customs was £31. Unless it's for...

    In one small piece of good news, my Black Friday package from Sentai finally arrived after an entire month. Seriously, I looked at my confirmation & realised I placed the order on November 16th. It took 11 days for Sentai to ship it and then an entire week stuck in customs, with the rest spent...

    If I remember correctly, Paranoia Agent censored a scene in which a trio of misfits attempting a group suicide, try/fail to hang themselves in the woods. It's been a while but I believe the edit shows them attaching the rope to the tree, then stepping up to it, before there's a sudden transition...

    I've just come off the first of two awful week long night shift duties over Christmas and have just realised I missed the GuP tv offer in my sleep derived state. Sigh. At least I got a heads up for their pre-order discounts and snagged Made in Abyss & Princess Principal. I'm incredibly happy MVM...

    I really wish I liked Maquia (or Okada's works in general) more than I do, because the collectors set looks damn impressive in terms of content. Well done getting all those features. I guess we'll see if Wolf's Rain shows up tomorrow. If not, I'll have avoided buying a single item from the '12...

    Well, five days in and I still haven't bought anything, which is bad for my anime collection but great for the leather jacket I'm currently in a bidding war on ebay over. I guess it's just a natural response to the well of licenses slowing down over the last 18 months; I've usually had the funds...

    And let's be honest, what is Testament of Sister New Devil if not an...errr... impulse buy?

    There's something inherently galling about seeing Yuri Kuma Arashi stuck in a fanservice bundle, considering much of that show was a direct criticism of the genre as a means of judging another's sexuality in a real world environment. That said, there's also few directors out there less...

    They're different products owned by different publishers/sponsors. Just because they come from the same franchise doesn't mean their economic ties are similar. I recall this subject coming up during the Aria & Victorian Romance Emma kickstarters, where it was reiterated several times that it...

    Honestly, I think the only AL release I haven't brought yet that I'm still interested in is the Wolf's Rain UE set. That's fine with me though. I've spent so much money over the last month (not even counting presents) that I really need to tread lightly this month.

    Same. On paper it ticks all the boxes for me, but for whatever reason I just couldn't attach to the show, despite recognising its obvious qualities. Well, I'll always have Yona. :)

    I ordered from Sentai on the 16th and they shipped the order on the 24th. So 8 days. As the sale had only been on for 4-5 days at that point, I imagine the later the order the longer the delay.

    Heads up; Sentai have another monster Black Friday sale on their website, You can get the likes of Flip Flappers & Flying Witch for under $10 each. Thank goodness there's so few CE sets this time around, as I've already ended up spending £115 on 13 items. Early Black Friday Sale Reminder that...

    I'm happy I can give Your Name the once over again. Not sure what happened to my package along the way, with one side looking like it had been blasted with a power-sander, & the other attacked by a particularly disgruntled badger called Gerald. Fortunately the disk itself was fine, which is all...

    I sent mine back on the 13th and haven't heard anything yet, although MCM is bound to cause delays even if the stock has arrived.

    The horrifying reality is that I suspect I'd actually like that film. I mean Night of the Galactic Railroad is one of my all-time favourite films. How bad could it actually be? * cue ominous piano music*

    As an aside, is anyone else worried about the urban myth regarding what will happen if this thread manages to reach 666 pages before Halloween officially ends? I heard so many conflicting reports. There's one rumour that it will create a 'Upside-down Jeremy' who will use the forum to...

    Fortunately with how low some of the items go in their sales, you rarely have you. I'm still kicking myself over paying near full-price (plus shipping & customs) for the first Chihayafuru set on Rightstuf
