It seems like there's a problem with the link - it's to a place called AffiliateFuture, not DeepDiscount.

[dtcarson]

Click the link that opened up, sometimes DD's links don't autorefresh.
(That is the affiliate link to earn DVDTalk some commission on sales if clicked through from here.)

edit: Never mind, that's more screwed up than it usually is. Sorry.

I'm not sure what happened. It should work now.

Ugh. I didn't think I'd be one of the guys complaining about DD raising prices before the sale, but...

Those Ramna sets have been at that for a while now. I checked back when they announced that the sale would start on the 14. Now, they have a "promotion" that runs through the 13th?

Seems convenient unless the promotion actually started a while ago. Oh well. They're not the only show in town. I'll just buy them from Amazon for $21.49 a pop.

Too bad that the artbox is already sold out (not listed anymore)

Has anyone ever ordered from buy.com before? There's a few things I wouldn't mind picking up with their $30 off card offer, but I would love to hear anybody's previous experience with them.

Buy.com is a reputable site and I have only had good experiences with them. I've bought videogames, sd cards, dvds, and even my television from them, and have never had any problems.

[Tenkyoken]

Thanks, Ill give them an order then. Hopefully the DVDs will get a better treatment than BB online gives them.

although i havent used them for a long while, i recall they were okay overall from a consumer perspective. but at least for now, my preference goes to amazon over buy all the time because of customer service. check the reseller ratings here:

http://www.resellerratings.com/store/Amazon

true, these ratings arent perfect, but i see them as relative.

wtk, any new fye/twec coupons?

There was one artbox for the original series (of which is way OOP years ago) and there is one artbox for Enishi (of which is OOP a couple years ago).

Hopefully the new newspapers with the 40% used coupons will be coming soon. The FYE by me has a used Last Exile Viridian collection for $32 ($16 after coupon/BSP).

With the 50% bonus on dvd trades at 75% bonus on Game trades, its definitely a great time to be shopping at FYE

FWIW, there is no such Viridian release. The original FUNi boxset was released early May. It remains to be seen when/if the Viridian boxset will be released?

Amazon.com

• Bleach: Season 3 Uncut Boxset (Reg.): $34.49

I may be speaking out of my ass here but I think the Last Exile release was thinpaks in a flimsy cardboard box a la Viridian esque. That's probably what threw Berzerker off.

Yea, I just figured they called all of their cheap sets "Viridian". Really dont find it a necessary thing to be called out on.

I wasn't calling you out, just responding to WTK's earlier post.

With the now 3 Black Cat releases, which one is the best to own? The singles w/ artbox, the digipak, or the new viridian collection. I have always been more inclined to get the digipak because it had a booklet of extras. However, there is word out there that the new Viridian Collection is a brick case. Is the brick case similar to the cases Bandai uses in say their Anime Legends line?

And those artboxes can be be a bitch to track down for a resonable price too. It took me awhile to find the one for the original series.
