Definitely seems that way, but the Gundam Unicorn Blu-rays seem legit. I'm not aware of any bootlegs of those.

The spelled "shopper" wrong. Why would you even consider them?

Hey, it's not necessarily a misspelling, ya know. Maybe it's a service for people who hope to have DVDs? Wink

Have you heard of Right Stuf? I sure have, but I've never heard of DVD Shoper.

I knew that'd come up, but it's not the same thing since TRSI has been a part of anime fandom for over a decade. People know Right Stuf. People trust Right Stuf. I don't have any reason to trust DVD Shoper.

Uh, I think SM was just having a giggle. At your expense, of course... Wink

OK GUYS GEE SORRY. I'm guessing this site is from a company with a not so great understanding of English, hence the misspelling and Engrish on the website. Looks like I'm gonna have to pay $75 for vols 2-3 of Gundam Unicorn on yesasia. Sh*t. Laughing

oh, I figured you got it.

.... still, if I refer to rightstuf in conversation I will often pronounce it Right Stoof. Like all those discount brands and stores like SuperValu that skip the "e" are always pronounced "valoo"
