What're the best deals you ever got on anime DVDs (*NOT bootlegs*)? I got Escaflowne DVD 3 for $10 and I'm gonna get the Ranma ½ OVA for $65 in a few days. Very Happy

I got the Evangelion Complete Series BoxSet for only $99 at Otakon '03. That comes out to about $12 bucks per disc as well as a collector's box!! Laughing I was quite proud of that find.

Because of Bandai's (somewhat) recent re-pricing, I got the Outlaw Star boxset from http://www.bestprices.com for about $40.

Shocked Where my friend did you get all of Rah Xephon for only $80? You must share this wonderful with me, as I have been looking for a decently priced boxed set of that series for quite some time now Sad .

I don't normally answer for other people, but in this case, I know where Tony got it... (from the What? The Mu can sing. Thread)

Yes, yes. Kazuki-san is correct. I also got a lot of that other stuff from eBay as well. You just have to know how to look for it. In fact... D'OH! Why are all of these coming out now, after the fact that I paid $80?! Evil or Very Mad Arrow Crying or Very sad Nooo....
