I'm assuming the latest two Inu Yasha sets, (3 &4) for $35 at Walmart are uncut. I remember the first discount set that walmart had was english only and edited. The two new sets appear uncut from the box.

Gah...I'm sure I could find something off of eStarland for 60% off...but come on...TEN items per page?! Am I missing some way to adjust the output? TEN?! I'm not scrolling through 100 pages...
Edit: Not too bad deals here. I passed on a Berserk vol 1/box...that seems like it'd be pretty rare. There are a lot of out of print Sailor Moon, lots of vol/1 + boxes, thinpacks, etc. Was able to finally complete Gundam Wing (missing vol 7) and picked up half of Tenjho Tenge, Tenchi Ryo-ohki vol 1, and 3 volumes of Full Metal Alchemist for $60 shipped...not bad.
This is my first time ordering from eStarland, what's the quality of their used stuff? Am I going to regret this? I hate buying used...(especially when it's blind).

Gackt's filmography Red and Blue DVDs came out today (I know it's not technically Anime, but he has done some Anime theme songs...), and I've been trying to find them in a store, instead of buying them online. I know Suncoast and Best Buy have good prices for them, but local stores don't seem to have them. Does anyone know where I might be able to find them in store?

I've ordered from them many times on those sales. I've never had a problem. Items come re-shrink-wrapped so they stay secure. Shipping is a little expensive, so I usually stick to box sets. I last ordered Full Metal Panic box set and the original El Hazard OVA box set. I did the BOGO Deal (enter FREEDVD for that deal) I only ordered FMP so I could get El Hazard for $35.
and yes, only TEN ITEMS per page. Expect 1-2 hours to sift thru it all. *sigh*

As far as the Big Lots list goes, I can confirm the availability of Volume 3 of Panda Z, Volume 3 of Galaxy Angel Z, and Volume 3 of the Anime Legends s-Cry-ed. I don't see them on the list.
Slightly off-topic, but is there any word on a Region 1 release of Stratos 4 Advance? Thanks in part to Big Lots, I just finished the original series and first OVA on the cheap, and am curious about the sequel...but not ~$50 per episode curious, which is where the Region 2 release seems to be priced.

Stratos 4 Advance probably won't be in R1 any time soon if at all. Vol.4 (TV) was released 12/14/2004, OVA was released 06/28/2005, and the Complete Collection (TV) was released 03/14/2006. If it's not licensed at this point by Bandai Entertainment, they will likely pass on it. It's falling into patterns of series such as Happy Lesson The Final and Happy Lesson Advanced of which ADV chose to pass up on them (at least so far). IMO, it's up to other studios to see whether picking the license is worth it or not.

I found out about the fansubs/torrents from a Google search, but I'm not entirely comfortable with acquring them that way. Thanks for the update...guess I'll just wait and see what happens for now.
