Guys, stop complaining about your stuff being delayed by a few days.

I mean seriously, are you really gonna watch it as soon as you get it? No, you're most likely gonna just take off the wrapper and stick it on the shelf.

I don't know many times have I read people saying "Oh, crap. I bought that 6 months ago for twice the price, and still haven't watched it."

Not me! 9 times out of 10 as soon as that sunuva's in the door it's straight into the player :p

Blue Submarine No.6 is £8.84 on planetaxel at the moment, anyone who grew up watching anime on Cartoon network/Toonami will remember the late night viewings of this show ;)

Worthy purchase!

If anyone's looking at this and going 'hmm... I dunno...' then I can confirm the show is pretty funky. Not 'out of this world amazing' but certainly a neat little show. I ordered it blind a while back and was pleasantly surprised.

For what it's worth, all of my Zavvi orders arrived today, I'm blued up with Eden of the East, Origin, and I got Black Blood Brothers on DVD.

Happy Usagi

I got Eden of the East, Evangelion and GitS 2.0/GitS:Innocence on BD

3 down, 6 to go!
 
I find it so strange to see people who've posted for donkeys years, saying they've only just bought series that i picked up years ago and even when i bought em, they'd already been out ages.

Would you care to share your opinions on the anime, please?

I liked it enough to import the Japanese discs, however that only helps if our tastes are at all similar. You can read people's impressions of the first episode here: http://www.mania.com/aodvb/showthread.php?t=86718

--edit--

PS, my copy of Mnemosyne arrived from Zavvi today (it was really cheap and I've only ever seen the first episode which left a lot of unanswered questions)

Could be a matter of taste or indecisiveness? I know i've thought about buying a specific series many times but the price has never been right, its only when I see it for cheap or in an offer i'll then commit to buying the series.
 
Sendit are a bit cheaper than Zavvi because they slap £2 postage onto every item. Why they do this, and why they're the only Hut Group store that do this, I don't know.

EDIT: or what the poster above me said.

Good business sense! It gets the suckers in through the door, with a "Look how cheap the prices are!" look of shock on their faces...

And Sendit are always doing 10% off offers and the like, but it's not actually 10% off when the P&P remains £1.99 regardless of how much you save on the item. 10% off £10 = £1 saved. 10% off £8 + £2 P&P = 80p saved...
