Let's face it - the real problem with the economy is a crisis of confidence. People are scared that the stock market will go down, so they're selling their stocks, which causes the stock market to go down. People are scared they'll lose their job, so they stop buying stuff, which causes other people to lose their jobs, which means they stop buying the stuff made by the people who stopped buying the stuff they made, so some of those people lose their jobs. (Confused? Welcome to Economics!) Well, here at AnimEigo, we have no confidence problems. We know that our videos and movies are the last thing you'll stop buying, and that even if the entire world becomes a post-apocalyptic hellhole, you'll band together to defend our offices against the ravening hordes, and pay admission to nightly screenings of our stuff with cans of scavenged dog-food. But on the other hand, we'd rather it not come to that. After all, eventually the high-quality dog-food is going to run out. So we're making a bold move to break the cycle of despair! Let the word go forth! This year's AnimEigo Winter Sale has arrived, and we're making the deals particularly spectacular! All Anime singles for $7.99! All Live-action singles for $12.99! Even better deals on just about all our box sets! Now it's up to you. Are you going to cower in fear, or are you going hold your head high, plonk your butt into a chair, and watch some good DVDs?

Amazon has matched Best Buy's price on Dead Space for 9.99 and the Blue-ray for 16.99.
Sorry, I'd post the links but I just received a "You are only allowed to post URLs to other sites after you have made 15 posts or more," note.  Er, Anyway it would be nice to see Mushishi and Air hit the bargain bin before the sale ends. Two more titles I could cross off my list early.  |

I thought this was a good deal, I'll let you all decide if it is or not.
 Berserk: Complete Series [6 Discs] Item released on December 23, 2008 http://www.borders.com/online/store/...u=631595088779 $38.99 -40% coupon (CM2008) = $23.39 + tax Around $4 cheaper than DD which as far as I can tell is the cheapest w/o a coupon. BTW, this is for the "remastered" collection. I'm still wondering what exactly will be "remastered". It's been awhile since I watched the series, but I don't remember the video or audio being bad at all. In fact, I remember it being really good.  I guess we'll see, I look forward to some more details on this.

doh! I didn't even think about it being disqualified for free shipping after coupon, sorry about that.
 Well, as far as DVDs go, there's not a lot under the $7.99 range, unfortunately. If you're getting the Yu Yu Hakusho season sets as they're released like I am you can preorder Season Four for around $18, not a fantastic deal but not too shabby either. Or, you can blow two bucks and brush up on your Geometry! http://www.borders.com/online/store/...sku=0618736956 (search books, sort by price Low -> High and pick something else if math doesn't suit your fancy) With book subtotal comes to $25.39, and the qualifies for free shipping, I checked.

I got my order from the ADV Thanksgiving sale today and I'm more than completely satisfied with my order. Rightstuf actually handled the fulfillment!
Same great packaging, same invoice slip, it even came in a RightStuf box. And best of all, all boxsets were sealed with no modification to any of the UPCs!If ADV lets RightStuf continue to handle their fullfillment, then I can definitely see ordering much more next time a sale rolls around. If I had known Rightstuf was handling the orders I would have ordered the Nadia and Saiyuki sets too. But I did get: Area 88 TV - Complete Collection Cyberteam in Akihabara - Complete Collection Megazone 23 - Complete Collection Shadow Skill TV - Complete Collection All for about $14 each, including shipping. Not too shabby IMO.

Regardless, it was unclear of whether if TRSI will be handling this sale or not. There were people that got responses back that product should be in its original packaging. In any case, this is good news to those who took advantage of this sale... |

I ordered so much crap from the DD sale and the ADV sale, and from over a year ago's Buy.com sale I am well over a year's behind in my anime watching, not including lots of Blu-Rays I have sitting in my rack.
Next in my lineup is either the Matrix Box BD or Vexille BD. |
