Just a note to say that if anyone is planning on ordering from that Sentai sale and is using a proxy shipper and wouldn’t mind splitting the cost then I may be interested! (Though admittedly my list of titles is already getting big.)

Sentai sales are a bust for me because I pretty much own every single title of theirs I am even remotely interested in already (except Legend of the the Galactic Heroes, which never goes on sale) - but it does hurt to see what the sale prices are on a lot of those releases I've long bought, and all the money I could have saved if I would have just waited a few years, lol...

Same here for the most part. But many have gone oop, so I guess it evens out a bit.
Logh... I really wonder if there would be a standard once it's gone or not... If not I kinda hope its stock lasts a while longer. =\
(Or somebody make the dollar weaker again. Euro dropped 15% while I was still considering. 5% went up again, but kinda stuck atm?)

Yeah, Brexit is really killing the value of the Euro atm against every currency except Sterling.

Well, most of the Sentai titles I bought were usually on some kind of sale, although their sales prices weren't nearly as jaw dropping as they have been these last 2-3 years. I've got 120 Sentai Blu-rays in my collection, comprising 84 individual anime series, so that is still only a very small portion of their entire offerings; I just have no interest in any of their remaining titles, so going through the listings every time there is a Sentai sale is basically fruitless for me, lol. I now only have to keep my eye on any new releases I might want from Sentai. Oh well, at least it saves me money to put towards that Legend of the Galactic Heroes Box set!

As for LotGH, I highly, highly doubt there will ever be a standard edition release of the series, I think the current box set is a once and done thing; they were probably very lucky to even get the license to release it at all, and the agreement most likely won't allow any standard release, nor be allowed to go on sale. I do still plan to purchase the set by next summer at the latest, if any are left.

The World God Only Knows, K-On! Premium Box, Angel Beats, Dusk Maiden of Amnesia, Azumanga Daioh just to name a few Sentai OOPs

I do have Angel Beats and Dusk Maiden, I picked both of those up in 2013. The rest of those titles I had no interest in, so I probably won't ever miss them... :)
