I've been looking for the best deal possible to import this on for a while - is Amazon the best price you could find?
I didn't shop around a lot this time as Amazon had one in stock and the price was £65 rounded up to nearest £1, I couldn't find a better price on Ebay new or used though. I use Amazon for importing US anime releases relatively often as long as it says it's in stock as then they are generally reliable - unlike their shoddy track record for things like honoring manga pre-orders! Ofc it takes a lil while to arrive but I've been happy with the quality of service, though my Akudama Drive LE had some damage when it arrived, that was Amazon Italy tbf but regardless I've not had any really bad experiences ordering standard edition US Blu-rays from Amazon US via Amazon UK (occasionally slight damage to the case but that doesn't happen a lot). ToysandFilms or w/e the exact shop name is on Ebay are good but with the major caveat that I've had a couple of orders shipped via standard post go missing with them and they did refund my money in full both times but I now won't buy from them unless I can afford to and am willing to pay for the more expensive shipping option they offer which bumps up the cost by about a tenner! I've used UP1 before they used to be pretty good but less reliable and with more expensive prices now from what I hear, I'll also suggest that Otaku.co.uk might be worth a try as well. One of the pluses of ordering such things from Amazon directly (as in rather than third party marketplace sellers located outside the UK) is that there's def no customs to pay or anything else of that sort, DGMW I'm not the biggest fan of Amazon as a company but speaking purely as a consumer they're pretty good for this. I did just check otaku.co.uk and UP1/United Publications and both are more expensive than Amazon, so Amazon is prob your best bet in this instance and it does still say they have one in stock even though my order was def placed so that's odd but it's there if you want it
(also I'm so sorry this message is so looooong) XP
