Nice, did you check their site? It seems to be cheaper there but unless your buying more stuff… postage.
Edit: rarewaves listing
I did not, £7.16 is enough of a bargain to justify a blind buy but that link is useful for anyone who prefers going direct!

The Rarewaves sale also has a couple of other Discotek DVDs for reasonable prices. I've found Ayakashi and GoShogun - Time Etranger so far.

They also have Kyousougiga (BD / DVD) for £10.94, would highly recommend to anyone who doesn't own it yet and is quite an old release from Discotek at this point.
Really great series though so definitely worth watching.

I'd buy it I didn't already have it.

I thought Discotek were region A-only? It says on the product description for Kyousougiga that it's region B

No it's locked to Region A. I bought it for the DVDs cos I love the show that much. Maybe one day I'll get a region free player.

I said to myself I'll only get a region free player if there's something I'm literally dying to get that I can't get on region B. So far, the UK/AUS/NZ have been satisfying my needs, haha.
I feel as if I had a region free player I'd be buying a lot of stuff that would be nice to have, but I could happily live without.

I know how that feels. When you have a few thousand Region B discs, it's hard to justify getting even more releases I have no room for. Back when BD/DVD combo releases were a thing for mainstream companies (especially Funimation), I bought a fair few shows that I really wanted, even if I could only watch the DVDs. In some cases, patience turned out to be a virtue, especially for shows like Hanasaku Iroha and Princess Jellyfish, which eventually got UK Region B releases. Now I find that I've started collecting UHDs I can't play, as companies like Disney (and indeed Anime Limited) turn to UHD/BD combos.

I thought all UHDs were region free. Is that not the case?

I got a multi region BD, too late to get some of the titles I wanted, NISA titles mostly, that have since gone OOP, still glad I picked up Working! season 2

as I understand it the UHD standard is region free.
unfortunately when authoring UHD discs the same software as authoring Blu Ray discs can be used and by using the region option in the software UHD discs can be given a region, whether by mistake or on purpose. this has resulted in roughly 20 UHD discs being region locked - I believe the Shout Factory Weathering With You US release is the only current anime UHD with this problem.
there's a list being maintained here

Don't yet have a UHD player or 4k TV.
Anecdotally, one or two UHDs have been region restricted
Actually more than just one or two, and for this forum, notably GKids 4k releases of Weathering With You is restricted to US/Canada

Guess I’ll fourth it! Great manga too!
The limited edition Steelbook release for Oshi no Ko Season 1 is available as part of AllYourMusic’s buy 2 save 25% deal on eBay. Managed to get it for just shy of £54 with two other non-anime items. Not a massive bargain per say but likely cheaper than importing.
