I been looking for Project A-Ko recently and found the collector's series set [img=http://www.[This is a known Bootleg Site]/project-a-ko--the-collectors-series-907-p.asp]here[/img] .

Is this set legit (it is not the same cover found on Amazon and Right Stuf, maybe the reserve of the box) and is the site legit as well?

EDIT: I guess I got my answer posting this.

For future reference, the reverse of the A-ko collector's set is a text blurb with a smallish closeup of the 3 girls (takes up maybe a quarter of the box or so.) CPM typically didn't do full wraparound art. Also, the box is of the folded-over cardstock variety... in other words, it's not the most study thing out there. You could probably save yourself some money by going the singles route instead- especially considering that Discotek liscensed the original Project A-ko back in July, meaning you'd just need to pick up the Love & Robots and Uncivil Wars DVD (both still on TRSI, by the way), then hold out for the new DVD to complete the series.

I have tried to get Love & Robots at Right Stuf with my last two orders there but both orders were canceled by manufacturer.

That's kind of odd- normally TRSI pulls those listings shortly after the cancelled orders start in.

Well, that being the case, they're still pretty cheap at Amazon. Singles are still your best bet.

When I`m on the mail forum page, the name of the site in question is displayed clearly. Confused

Anything the staff can do to rectify this?

I keep an eye on there for 'Fulfillment by Amazon' since is it cheaper to ship to Canada that way.
