Awesome. Now I just need Vol. 2 LE at a good price, assuming that my Vol. 4 LE ships from Amazon. Thanks!

I usually try to check different deal pricings once a day. I have a method set up that is convenient for me. Refreshing webpages is too mundane and not necessary.

....and no I don't have assistants.

OK, so I went ahead and ordered the Haruhi 3 SLE from DD. Glad I could help those looking for it. It was a chance find, really, as I was just throwing things into my wish list in preparation for the upcoming DD sale. Guess I've been getting good deals on the series so far. Bought volume 1 + artbox for $18 with an Amazon gift certificate my dad was given for taking a survey. Although, I wasn't able to find anything great for volume 2 SLE, as I bought it when it first came out from DVD Pacific for $32. I was too afraid to order volume 4 SLE from Tower, but then again, people have said that they've received crap from Wal-Mart.com and I've personally never had a problem with them.

I saw it just recently. It has a number of pretty intense scenes of torture, but the story and the lead character are fantastic, especially during the Russian half of the show. If you can handle the brutality then I'd definitely recommend it. It's smart, exciting, and very well written.

This review, and this more detailed one might help you make up your mind.

If you do go for it, I'd recommend getting the singles out of the RightStuf bargain bin, since the "thinpak" has wretched video quality on the Pakistan episodes. The stories are completely separate, so if you want to sample the show you can get a complete story with volumes one and two, or three and four, before committing to the whole thing.

That is a great price on the Complete Collection though, especially since it's only been out about a month.

Witchblade Vol 2 was out yesterday (Sunday) at my local Best Buy for $20. I haven't seen it advertised at many online vendors (that I frequent, anyway), and wasn't even sure it was actually coming out.

The release date for Vol.2 is 11/6, so something like this is pretty normal for Best Buy.

If you don't mind a little wrinkle or bend on the outer case, Amazon.com subsidiary has Vol 2 LE on sale for $21.44 + $2.98 shipping in the market place. Personally, I throw away the box after I've transfered the dvds/cds into vol 1 art box anyways, so it doesn't really matter to me.

At this point guys I think we should start looking for deals at DeepDiscount.com because I suspect the 20% off sale will start any day now...

I really hope they don't raise some of their prices (especially ADV titles) like they have in the past.

Woot, my Haruhi Vol 3 shipped from DD & my Vol 4 shipped from Amazon. I was able to get a year of Amazon Prime for $16, so my 2 day UPS shipping was free ^_^.
