| a price drop for Air only 1 month after its release?! how dare ADV betray its loyal followers who picked it up early?! I say loyal followers should demand a $100 credit usable only in ADVs store! |
| damnit.... [drives off to local mall] |
  "What happens when we die?" I know that the ones who love us will miss us. |
| Do want to buy... does this include stores as well or just online? |
 ilu Mathes. thanks for awesome Beato sig. <3 ilu mah_marina. thanks for awesome Beato icon. <3 |
| I don't know if they still do it, but if you care about blemishes on cases and boxes, be careful. ADV pokes a hole through the UPC to mark it as a sale item. Hole right through Kenshin's head in my Trust and Betrayal DVD :/ Hm, wonder what they'd do to the 009-1 DVD tin :P Well, I sort of don't care anymore. As long as it's barely noticeable and doesn't ruin the packaging. |

| With some of the prices I'd assume online... plus I don't think they could get every single store that carries their DVDs to do such a huge ass price reduce. |

As long as it's barely noticeable and doesn't ruin the packaging. Same thing happend to me. I bought Trust & Betrayal, Reflections, and some manga from them and they poked holes through the barcode. While it is not that noticable, it still irks me. That why i never buy from them anymore. I rather get it cheap from like pacific dvd or something. |

| No matter how cheap the ADV store sells things for, Half-Price Books (or any other secondhand video store for that matter) still has them for way cheaper(although $5-6 per disc isn't bad, but my HPB has Hoshizuki no Koe for 4 bucks). |

Sure, but you're not guaranteed to see anything that you care to buy. The HPB here has about 20 anime discs, all that I already own or have no interest in owning. |

That and their insane shipping costs (unless they changed them recently; when I tried to order a few months ago they were like $5 per disc) make barely anything in their sales worth it. New shows can be found at deepdiscount.com and dvdpacific.com for pretty much the same prices, and rightstuf.com's bargain bin is full of old discounted ADV singles. |
| Oh...$24 for the entire Kino no Tabi series!!! I have a feeling I'm going to be a lot poorer today. |
| I bought way too much, but I reassured myself by thinking of much my order would've cost would there have not been a sale. |
