The growth of anime in retailer stores

Exeter has died recently. 2 years ago we had HMV, Virgin, and MVC with massive shelf space. Today, we only have HMV (which a few weeks cut its Anime space in half and merged it with World Cinema.) and Virgin, which has never been particularly good, but is worse now since the store moved to the new shopping district.

Sadly the dark days of pre 2002 seem to be returning for Anime fans in Exeter...

Wouldnt it be great to walk into HMV with a like 100 pound off coupon, and get a mass of anime and then not have to hand over ANY cash. Man id love that :lol:

I bet companies like Beez, ADV, Revalation Films and MVM woldn't :p lol i do wish the high street would charge at online prices, it would make things so much better

Disadvantage of being on the high street, is the high rent. Whereas online retailers can be based in the middle of nowhere once there is a postal service.
