Hey all, just giving out a heads-up to those who want to save mucho greenbacks; go to rightstuf.com before the 28th of this month and you can get either 10 CDs, DVDs or UMDs of Geneon titles for $50. Or better yet, 25 of the same for $100...
It's part of their "Geneon Bountiful Bargains REMIX - 10 for $50 OR 25 for $100" deal. Below is a link to the titles to choose from and here's a quote from the site as well.

Do you have any recommendations out of that list?
I'm getting the rest of Heat Guy J because I started on that series a while back but the rest of the DVDs have been out of stores for the longest time. Also, I'm finishing up my Lain and Paranoia Agent collections. There's just too much to choose from otherwise. I'm thinking the best value would be 4-DVD series (so, 20 bucks). Once you get up to 7/8-DVD series, that becomes about 35/40 dollars, which is still a deal, but more along the lines of how much anime is at Best Buy. EDIT: Okay, this is what I've got (25 selected): Akira DVD (Hyb) Deluxe Edition Armitage III: Polymatrix/Dual Matrix DVD Set Bottle Fairy DVD 1 (Hyb): Spring & Summer Bottle Fairy DVD 2 (Hyb): Autumn & Winter Fafner DVD 1 (Hyb): Arcadian Project + Artbox (Limited) " 2 " 3 " 4 " 5 " 6 " 7 Haibane Renmei DVD 1 (Hyb): New Feather " 2 " 3 " 4 Heat Guy J DVD 1 (Hyb): Super Android w/Artbox (LIMITED EDITION) (for the box) " 4 " 5 " 6 " 7 Lain, Serial Experiments DVD 3 (Hyb): Deus - Geneon Signature Series Lain, Serial Experiments DVD 4 (Hyb): Reset - Geneon Signature Series Paranoia Agent DVD 2 (Hyb): True Believers " 3 " 4 This is a great deal! |

The only bad thing about it (aside from RightStuf's stock being critically low for certain items) is that not all Geneon products are eligible for the deal (WHY NO KAMICHU).
But otherwise, yeah. I told some people the other day and they promptly dropped about $500 on it. Riches!  |

Yeah, I hear ya. Went for Last Exile but they ran out of volume 1 with the box and volume 5. Decided to go get those two at axelmusic again since that place is pretty cool about having boxes and limited edition stuff. I also got all of Heat Guy J, Mao-chan, Sol Bianca, Gregory Horror Show, Moldiver, Patlabor Movie 3: WXIII, and Akira Deluxe Edition. That's some mega dvdage! 700 bucks of merchandise for 100 dollars. Even my raped wallet thinks that was pretty swell. So I decided to go order a 1 TB Hitachi harddrive for 400 bucks and then it was like well that's a great deal but ouch mah butt!

Well, I tell ya one thing, they're taking a bit of time to charge me / ship. I haven't gotten anything past the order confirmation e-mail.
Here's hoping everything's going smoothly. |

The item I was really hoping for was the ROD TV volume 7 + box + figurine, and amazingly enough they actually restocked. I bought that up in a frenzy (along with the rest of the series) and Starship Operators, so I'm pretty satisfied.
RightStuf is a reputable company, anyway, so I'm not worried about not receiving the products. Besides, it was an absolute steal no matter what you got. I'd be okay with waiting a few weeks. |

Just about half are "reserved for your order," the other half are "on order from manufacturer." Weird, considering they had so many in stock (when I first ordered back on June 6th). They must have had a lot more people buying even in the first few days to liquidate so much stock. Unless of course, they had that many "in stock," just not sitting in their regular warehouse. Who knows. |

Yeah, it's weird. Considering that they display the amount of stock they had (there were around 280 or so of the DVDs I wanted) I figured it'd be no big deal, but I guess when they're moving about so much stock it gets to be bothersome.
Here's hoping everything gets shipped out just fine. I always get anxious to receive stuff when I buy online.  EDIT: Owned by RightStuf. The status on ROD TV vol7 box + figurine has been changed to "reserved for your order," which changed my entire order to "All backordered."

As for being charged, I usually notice the charge a few days after the stuff is shipped.

I helped myself to the lot of the Lupin discs (12 DVD's but in reality, it's the only thing in the pile I'll watch), but I also finished off my Mini Goddess (3 DVD's), Star Ocean EX (2) and Tokyo Underground (4) sets and dug into Starship Operators (3) and picked up Moldiver after all these years of putting it off. I got mine in pretty early (most discs were around the 600+ mark), so here's hoping. I "Saved" like $630...Which goes to show how overpriced a lot of this stuff is.
I'm taking over this town...
I'm screaming for vengenace... I'm shouting at the devil... I'm not dead and I'm not for sale... Ain't lookin' for nothin' but a good time... |

So, I take it I am the only one who went for CDs over DVDs, eh? Being a less amount of savings over what the DVDs would offer notwithstanding
Oh well, here's what I picked up: Spoiler:
I should be getting it any day now. Though, it'll most likely take me all Summer to go through it all. Not that I am complaining... Anyway, here's hoping another deal like this happens before the year is over. I definitely wouldn't mind picking up DVDs next time around regardless.

I didn't get any CDs because I've heard some negative things about US-released CDs. Something like how the quality is inferior to the original Japanese discs, or something? If you could confirm/deny that when you get your shipment, that'd be pretty interesting.
Also, US releases seem to lack the same extras as the Japanese ones (though they do cost a lot less). I am a sucker for the obi and first press goodies. |
