Wish I'd known that before I ordered as it's £3 shipping from AoL ex VAT leaving me with a €6 customs clearance fee while Rarewaves charge €6 shipping and are on the IOSS.

MVM are usually pretty good at cancelling orders if you email them.

Nah. I'll take the hit, at least I know with MVM it will be shipped in a sturdy box.

Seconding this query, as I am curious.
The MVM stuff gets sent out quickly, so I’m sure someone’s got it by now.
As it’s restricted to the clearance range, I know I’ve got them all so won’t be looking to order.

Overall I myself just grabbed Blood C ult, Great pretender, Cyberpunk, B the beginning S2, GITS s2, and took a chance on a tv mystery box for fun~

Those CR set prices are actually pretty decent. Worth re-posting in the deal thread as not everyone will see it buried deep in this thread, at sale's end. That aside...
'Tis most displeasing to have waited all 12/13 days for AL to stop flashing me - in the misguided hope the final flasher would be worthwhile - and seeing the blue, empty nothingness of that Eva release... when I own the NGE giganto squared edition (two, in fact: gave one away). It left me in such a state of apathy I was rendered unable to post (or join comrade Google in doubtless bullet pointing.) On the plus side, I did not actually want it, so the despair of putting it in my basket only for eBay reseller scalpers to immediately take all the copies in 30m was evaded. Small mercies.
On the non-plus side, I waited two weeks to order, and the one thing I intended to get not a pre-order/early bird redux went out of stock at the very end. I mean, most likely that saved me wasting monies, as Akame ga Kill not very good... but Taku Iwasaki's music was contained within its shittiness.
Last year there was the Nadia UE+book. This year AL could've done an early birdy with the giant, very black Macross Plus square that is seemingly going unwanted. BUT NO! 'Twas instead chucked in with CEs. And now, I cry alone, inside.
The lyrics of this vid/song, aptly playing over Evangelion, articulates my feelings better than words, and goes with the earlier music off topic discussion.
One more pill, knock me out('till the next flash sale)
I might die full of doubt (never knowing if a better offer coming)
Hold on awhile, you're still young(there's always another Christmas)
It gets better sometimes(but probably not as everything worth a toss been in sales)
PS: Please come back, @anime_andrew. Christmas/AL just isn't the same without you, and it's not as fun moaning at poor Hanners over delays/usual AL cockery.

Well, settled in the end to use my discount code for Naruto Shippuden. Not on the deal but might as well use the extra 5% off and no shipping costs. Not as good as the original deal but that's my fault for missing it.
