And the English video track causing duplication of on screen translations when watching in JP w/EN subs if I recall correctly.

I disagree. I hate Scanavo’s cases with a passion. I would happily pay an increased cost on every release for them to bring back Amarays.

Clear Amarays, yes. It’s these clear Scanavos I don’t like. I also don’t like blue Scanavos.

Got my replacement this morning and no defects this time, happy days..
Another Yuuna and the Haunted Hot Springs manga batch. Volume 14 arrived first last Monday and Volume 13 was supposed to do the same but Royal Mail lost it, so Amazon sent me a replacement which arrived today. I do have Volume 15 pre-ordered since it was £8 and it's expected to hopefully ship in a few weeks time.

Isn't it already out? Got my digital version from Bookwalker on Tuesday. Yuru Camp vol 10 digital and physical came out same day.
Yeah I pre-ordered it days before its official release last Tuesday, but like any other Seven Seas title it's currently out of stock for UK. Estimation is end of September to early October as a result.

Sword Art Online Alicization Part 1 Collector's Edition Blu Ray from HMV to go with part 2 I already owned (with big thanks to @SAHO for the tip). Now ready for the pre-orders for War of Underworld to open). 
And One Punch Man Season 2 ( didn't feel quite right to splash out for the CE for this one, so just the standard one).

Ah, Yuru Camp is Yen Press and I got it 4 days later due to choosing free post. Wonder what effects one company, but not the other? Yuru Camp was printed in the States, so obviously needed shipping over at some point before the release date.

i've noticed it with seven seas stuff that despite the release date being the same as the US, UK stores don't seem to get any stock until atleast a month after the date, yen press from memory was generally avaiilable a week earlier than the date or at thee same time

These are awesome. I've considered buying things like these before but how do you store/preserve them? Also, how do you prove their authenticity?Some of the original sketches that arrived todayI've really been enjoying building on this new collection of mine

Those two factors always scared me away from buying these and cels which is a shame because they are super interesting and cool.

That's a big heavy box

I only buy sketches on paper which they make before the actual cels on plastic sheets. Those are easy to preserve. I just stick them in a plastic bag/vinyl sleeve and store them in a portfolio/box.
For example Bleach is a digitaly made anime, but they still used hand painted sketches that they scanned and painted digitally. The gengas are a bit more rough but more colorful and then the final version(douga) is the polished sketch with just line work that they scan.
I've been buying them from other collectors who purchased them from Japan a long time ago and they're part of big sets so I'm sure they're real. Fakes aren't that usual for series like Bleach which isn't too expensive yet. It's more common for big hitters like Ghibli and DBZ and more specifically the cels.
Edit: Yahoo Japan is a good place to look around for any series you like. There's a lot of cheap series as well if you don't want to invest too much money in it.
