DVDsoon blew it big time on two mispriced anime titles recently.
They cancelled them out from underneath people, never sent them any notification at all and most customers did not automatically get credit in their DVDsoon account (much less return the money to their credit card). It turns out all this "we charge you up front to lock in the good price" is just BS.
Here's a thread on the issue: http://forums.animeondvd.com/showflat.php?Number=601290
Beware that if they screw you on this, chances are that you will twice be out the exchange fee your credit card charges to convert money, Once on the USD to looneys and then again on credit back. So, unlike most misprices, getting in on it is not risk free.
