Purchasing Decision...NEED HELP!

Suzuki_Fanboy · Dec 29th, 2002, 12:15 AM

OK...I found a Rurouni Kenshin box set, with all the episodes, in 12 DVD's...for $220.00 USD. Is it worth it...? It is my favorite anime ever...but $220.00 is a lot of money...hrmm...what do you guys think?

You're a sandwhich artist, I thought you were a millionaire!?

Go for it if you have the money to do so. Just think "will i regret this a few months from now?" And what about your car payments?

Suzuki_Fanboy · Dec 29th, 2002, 12:32 AM

I have the next payment paid for in the bank, and I just got $440.00 for Christmas...so I have the money...but hrm...that's still a lot.

https://www.discountanimedvd.com/dvd_...asp?dvdno=1677

16 Disks, All Episodes, The movie and an OVA (whats an OVA?)

all for....

Retail Price: $349
Our Price: $201.99
Special Sale Price: $189.99

That seems quite good, do a good search before buying though, Thats a fair amount of money, you want to find the best deal out there

Suzuki_Fanboy · Dec 29th, 2002, 11:58 AM

WHOA!!!!

That's the same package of Episodes, then it comes with all the OVA's!!! You rule, mark0. Thanks man.

mark0™ · Dec 29th, 2002, 01:32 PM

No problem man, To be honest, I found that deal in at most 2 minutes, Whenever yuou buy big, it's important to shop around, so still have a little search even If you want to buy that, you may even get a better deal!

kold · Dec 29th, 2002, 03:59 PM

yes buy it. if its your fav anime then id say its worth. and theres so many eps id doubt u'd get sick of it. i watch a movie a few times a month and if i get sick of it wait a few months and i forget most of the stuff then its almost like new.

Suzuki_Fanboy · Dec 29th, 2002, 10:06 PM

It might be a while before I buy it, but I'm probably going to get it...

Fox · Dec 29th, 2002, 11:29 PM

its a ripoff....as mark0 showed you.

fantasywave · Dec 31st, 2002, 07:00 PM

What the hell??? 220 for eye cookies??? Think twice man, I hope you didn't bought it yet. If I have 220 like you, I would buy a new game console.

Vash · Dec 31st, 2002, 10:33 PM

Woah watch out Suzuki, I found an out of the world deal for Cowboy Bebop box set at that same site and they turned out to be bootlegs. And that site has no returns if you have opened the case.

Suzuki_Fanboy · Jan 1st, 2003, 12:25 AM

Hmm....I see. That "out of the world" deal you speak of was pretty crazy...it was like $40.00 for a set that was wort $300.00+...I always thought it might be fake.

I wish there was a way I could tell if it's bootleg or not. Isn't it illegal to sell bootlegs online though?

...wouldn't a new video game console be "eye cookies" also?

No, a video game console is for fun.

and you don't just watch in a game console, you also talk, control, and think!!!! You are not a true gamer!!!

And you are not a true fan of anime! Anime is for fun, too...why else would you watch it?

I game all the time, I was just making a point. You still watch cutscenes and look at the screen while you press buttons. But, on some anime's, you get just as involved with their story as you do with the action in a game.

kold · Jan 1st, 2003, 04:09 PM

a few of us might get activity outta anime *cough*hentai*cough*

so do i, i usually ask around and see if someone else has bought it/bought from the site etc. and yes of course its illegal to sell bootleg copies online its illegal to see bootleg copies period.

Suzuki_Fanboy · Jan 1st, 2003, 05:20 PM

So...why haven't they been caught? If they fooled me into buying a bootleg copy of that set I'd inform the producers of Cowboy Bebop of this...and get their cheap asses put out of business.

kold · Jan 1st, 2003, 07:44 PM

do it then. they will get in deepshit for it.

Suzuki_Fanboy · Jan 1st, 2003, 07:51 PM

I didn't buy the Cowboy Bebop box set though...so I don't have a real reason to do it.
