Shawne Kleckner just posted over at AOD stating that to keep an eye on the listed Geneon sale items. They may be adding more titles toward the end of the sale!

A poster over at AOD was whining that certain volumes that he needed weren't part of this sale. Shawne replied that he should check back toward the end of the sale. It would appear that there will be updates to the list, so keep checking.
EDIT: You monitor the AOD board just like me, WTK and you're not as long-winded in your reply as I am.

I really enjoyed FY; bought the original box sets long ago (all....4 I think it was). My husband comments that it was a lot of "Miaka!" & "Tamahome!" yelling throughout the series (he still occassionally brings it up lol).
However, despite the repetitive name yelling, it's a fun adventure for the most part IMO.

This isn't good... I already have another order in my waiting list....
Daphne in the Brilliant Blue x7
Fushigi Yugi x9
Niea Under 7 x4
El Hazard: The Wanderers x4
+
(either Appleseed, another movie, or what I'd really like; Tenchi OVA vol 2 / it seems odd that the first two movies are up and vol 3+4 OVA, maybe it was a mistake?)

OR THE LONGER ROUTE:
CLICK THE LINK FOR ADVANCED SEARCH => CHECK "NO" ON "Eligible for Geneon Bountiful Bargains!"
=> CHECK "GENEON" UNDER PUBLISHER => CHECK "DVD" UNDER MEDIA!
THERE ARE ABOUT 12 PAGES WORTH OF TITLES NOT INCLUDED ON THIS SALE SO FAR!

JBM-
I highly doubt that Shawne would put Gun X Sword on the list since the first volume came out in June. If he doesn't include Champloo, you can get all 7 volumes as enrollment selections at CH. I would recommend that you get the 3 Enishi DVDs. It's obviously a continuation of the Ai Yori Aoshi series, but you can still enjoy it without having seen the Aoshi set. For $12-$15, it's a no-brainer, IMO.:
I'm hoping for the Girls Bravo series to show up so I can avoid having to buy the box set in November.

Well, I doubt he'll include most if not all of those... Like I said, it's more a reference to MYSELF. As for the Enishi series, I know it's a continuation, but I don't want to buy those until I have the original series... And I'm not going to put in another order unless there are enough titles to make it worthwhile, that I -really- want. That's 3 titles, and I'm sure I could find others, but I'm low on cash, so I don't need those right away.
I'm also aware of the CH deal since it's been mentioned a few times before, so thanks, but I'd rather avoid that route at the moment as well.

If there's anything else I'd like them to add it would have to be Ai Yori Aoshi. I don't really need to start (anymore than I already just bought) new series' as I've now got over 100+ DVDs to watch yet.
This is really quite sad though, I have no self-control when it comes to cheap anime. I'm normally a very frugal person.

I'm pretty sure the DVDs are EXACTLY the same. The only difference is there's a red banner on the front case saying: "Signature Series". I bought the two different versions of Tenchi OVA vol 1 at Dollar General because I thought they were somehow different. But, to my disappointment, no difference at all.

If you're looking for consistency, I would get all Signature Series, but if you don't like the red banners and can stand having just one with a red banner, I'd get the other three non-SS and the one SS.
Edit: It's also possible the Vol. 3 (non-SS) could come back in stock, but I wouldn't -count- on that happening.
