What is the lowest and highest price you have paid for an anime dvd? NOT A BOOTLEG, an official R1 release.
The lowest I've paid for an anime dvd was $4.99 total for a Final Fantasy Unlimited Phase 1 dvd on eBay. The highest I have paid so far is sadly $149.99 for a sailor moon season 1 uncut box set. I knew I should've waited until the price was cheaper. |

The lowest I've ever paid was $2.99 for a brand new Boogiepop Phantom Vol.2 on eBay.
The most expensive item I ever bought is a sealed Limited Edition .hack//SIGN Vol.1 for about $150, also from eBay. |

Let's see...
The lowest I ever paid for an anime DVD was, well... nothing for the Bubblegum Crisis Hurricane Live! DVD; a friend gave me his because he never watched it. And the Record of Lodoss War OVA box set, which my boyfriend got me as an anniversary present. I think I bought vol.2 of Cardcaptor Sakura on Ebay for $3.99, too. As for the most expensive... it was Animeigo's Super Dimensional Fortress Macross Box Set, for about $120. I still think it's one of the best purchases I ever made, though. No regrets! |

I got the first three volumes of Beyblade at Walmart for 5.50 each which is also tied with a Dragonball box set (first 13 episodes) and My Neighbor Totoro. All 5.50 each.
Most expensive was Rurouni Kenshin: Wandering Samurai for 90 bucks at amazon (it was a birthday present though). |

The cheapest i have gotten, though it was not just one dvd but the whole series, was the whole Tenchi GXP series with the art box at The Movie Trading Company for $29.99.
And the most expesive would probably be The LE Escaflowne box set that came with the Dark Escaflowne figure, which i believe cost me like $150. |

Oh, actually the most expensive item I ever bought was a used LE box set of X (TV) for $185. But the .hack//SIGN was my most expensive single DVD purchase
 .

The cheapest DVD I have was 4 € (around 5.2 USD), but anyway, I got a magazine for free with it...(Well, it wasn't this way, it was this stupid and childish magazine who had anime DVD's as a selling strategy
 )
The expensivest. Nothing out of the normal, in fact. Normal DVD's (I'm not that loaded as many of you seem to be  )

I tried getting the X TV series on ebay once too, but i gave up at $150.... too bad.... i would probably have paid $200 if i had the money 
i would also like to add to dvds, vhs'. Because i get anime VHS' all the time for like .60 to 2.00 at random places like Half Price Book Store, Movie Trading Company, and even Blockbuster. |

Hmm.....I haven't bought too much anime yet, mostly I get it from the library, TV, or downloads. My cheapest was the complete series of Sorcerer Hunters for $10.00 plus shipping, from eBay (it's used, but it's real). My most expensive.......probably $25 (plus tax) for the 2nd Inuyasha movie from a local comic shop, though that's about to change, thanks to a new job I just got.......

Hm...this is a tricky one to answer. Cheapest in terms of least money paid would have to be the Utena movie I think, which I got for about $13 or $14 off of DeepDiscountDVD.com. But then cheapest in terms of biggest discount was the Zeta Gundam box set, which I got for $120 (again, DeepDiscount) as opposed to the MSRP of $200. However, despite their discount, the Zeta Gundam box was also still the most expensive DVD kit I've ever bought.

I bought both the complete R1 release of Kare Kano and Dai Gard for $30 each from eBay. Most expensive I've bought was probably the Gundam movie trilogy box set from Frye's - don't remember how much, though.

The most expensive piece of anime I have ever bought must be the Evangelion Perfect Collection. It was only the third anime series that I bought (the first two were hentai) and the first one I purchased when I decided that I should make it my new hobby. I don't remember the exact price but I must have given something like 120-150$. I didn't know about dvdpacific or deepdiscount at the time so it was quite expensive. It, of course, got a lot more expensive when I paid the roughly 80$ additional dollars in custom fees (bastards). And even though I recently re-purchased it in the form of the Platinum edition, it was still the most satisfying purchase I have ever made.
The cheapest, in terms of most value for money, would have to be the Gasaraki set for $26 or the 3 Slayers sets that recently had their price lowered to the almost ridiculous price of 26$ a pop. |

Aw, you got so gipped. I would've sold you mine for $50. ;p Always ask your friends first, man. Most I ever paid for a single DVD was probably a standard starter set. I've try not to pay more for a DVD than MSRP. |

Ah~ shucks. I wish I'd known you better back then. If you still have it, you could probably make a bundle off it on eBay just like that seller did with me  . But thanks anyway, I'll put you on my "to buy list." Uh.. to buy from, that is  .

Well, some of the Urusei Yatsura TV Box Sets, the first couple being around $120 and now it looks like it dipped down to $112. The chippiest I got a DVD was a Dragonball Z (Pre-Funanimation) for $5 at the PX in Korea.
