Any one got any good links for buying anime DVD's online?
getting hold of titles via stores in the the UK can be pretty hard as well as very expensive so i've been looking to start ordering more title's
i find online prices are better but sometimes shipping costs can push price up a little to high

ive found that http://www.dvdboxoffice.com
have a very good selection and worldwide shipping is FREE :) but they can sometime's take a few weeks to get older titles back into stock(if they can get them at all i waited 6 months for them to try and get me battle angle attila on dvd in the end i cannceled the order)

any of you guys got any other good link's to online store that dont rip you off?

verm recommended this place to me and i find it very useful
www.dvdpricesearch.com

I have ordered several anime dvds from this website
www.digitaleyesdvd.com and they have VERY good service. the dvds i got were all around 19 bucks and had cheap shipping. I got some of them in only 2 days so it's pretty quick too.

Another good place is Anime Castle (http://www.animecastle.com).
They have a good selection of items in stock and usually have great prices. I have ordered from them quite a few times due to speed and service. I'm not sure if they ship internationally though.

Gibb, how do you get points for the Frequent Buyers Club for Digital Eyes DVD ? Do you have to be a member of that club before ordering to get points ?

i'm not sure
i've ordered 3 times from then so maybe after the 2nd time you start gaining points

you get a point for every dollar you spend. at 200 points you save 5 bucks or something. it's not really worth the trouble of worryin about it lol. There is a 5 dollar coupon at digitials eyes tho, just type IAMNEW as a code to save 5 bucks

Well, I ordered from them yesterday. I looked today to see if I had any points on my account and saw that there were none. So, I decided to ask you because you have ordered from them before. I ordered the Tenchi Miyu Ultimite Edition because I have heard that it was a good series and I saw a couple episodes. I also decided to get the first movie because it was dirt cheap. Though I usually don't like anime that is funny, almost kiddie, I decided to try it. I am usually more of an action anime junkie, not funny.


You are right, it probably is more trouble than it is worth.

man the NGE series are expensive. I mean i didnt think it would be that cheap but 98 dollars is cheapes for all 1-26 videos which prob is pretty cheap for 26 videos on dvd but i wouldnt know. I may just download em again and do that tv out thingy wiht gf3 i dunno dont have any money to spend on em though thats for sure.
