Not all stores are the same. There are people who are willing to pay a little more for better service and less problems. Rightstuf is one of the few places where people usually order LE items without worrying that they'll be damage. So yeah, you're paying more, but then again, you don't see a lot of complaints lodged against Rightstuf. Rightsfuf is not my main retail source, but I do buy from them when they have good deals. Though I wish they would hurry up and ship my Sasami keychain.

i would be really interested if someone finds something in that sale that they cant find some place else (DDD with free shipping).

Here's what I came up with.

That's fantastic. Your list is a lot like mine. I'll go ahead and update with what you found and what I found in specific. Thanks for your hard work.

It was no big deal. Those 13 stores are all within 15 miles of me.

Though strategizing the order in which to visit them took some time (damn NP completeness and whatnot)

I was lucky. I went to a grand total of two (the rest are kinda out of the way). One is in my city, the other a little further out (which had zilch). I guess the disappointment of the second store made me revisit the first one, and I hit the jackpot today. Your findings were very similar to mine (yours missing a few here and there and vice versa, but not much!). It's a shame there weren't any Haibane Renmei DVDs, though. I would've liked to have gotten a few! But I'm in no way complaining. Seriously, today was like being a little kid in a candy story (or pretty much how I am in candy stores presently).

Again, thanks everyone for all your help. You guys are what keep this thread going. I really appreciate it.

Found you!

Justbarelymoving,

Fear not. I come in friendship. Now, shall I just tell you which friend of yours this is, or should I drop a few clue-imbued sentences? I'm leaning toward the latter. It's been a long time since we've rocked a mosh pit. It's also been a long time since we last waxed poetic about buttery goodness.

Miss you!
The other petite brunette.
