I'm afraid you're out of luck- the Ronin Warriors boxset was a limited release available for 1 holiday season, and as such incredibly out-of-print now.

Your best bet for a 'deal' is to just buy the singles (despite those being out of print and starting to get pricey as well.)

To be fair, it's not the world's greatest set... I have the similarly released Escaflowne Perfect Collection. It's a book-style set of plastic disc-holding 'pages' in a paper 'cover', with a paper slipcover over it. No art, just a background and the show logo. It's certainly space-saving (9 discs in 3 standard DVD cases worth of space), but it ain't that great-looking- and if you're like me, you'll be a bit paranoid of damaging the paper parts, as they aren't very thick.

All 3 are bootlegs. For reference, the only Ronin Warriors boxset released has this cover, and contains 12 discs (10 for the TV series, 2 for the OAV.) Those are noted as having 8 discs, which can't possibly be right for a legit release. You'll also notice the packaging lacks any sort of barcode or logos from a legitmate liscensee.
