To me, that's the best place. They have coupon sales every week (this time is on Viz's DVDs and manga), have weekly specials that change every Thursday, an awesome bargain bin, and overall their prices and customer service are excellent. If your order totals $49, then you also get free shipping (but without that, the shipping costs aren't too high).

I'm an eBay/Amazon guy myself. You can find some wallscrolls on those sites if you're lucky, but it's mostly DVDs and random assorted toys.

Definitely recommend rightstuf.com! I have 3 boxsets of series that I got for 20 bucks each!!!! The sales they have are amazing sometimes. 20 bucks for what some people paid 80 for!

And Happy Birthday! =3 ^.^ :singing_bday: :present_smilie: :glomp:

With ebay you really have to be careful of bootlegs because they are everywhere. My rule is to not buy anything anime related from china because they are always bootlegs. Theres tons of posters on ebay, but most of them people just laminated paper and are not genuine posters, but some look pretty cool for the right price.

Yeah, they're awesome about that. When they still have some out of print stuff in stock, the prices will be rock bottom. Like I think the complete Pani Poni Dash (original single DVDs + artbox) was selling for about $30-ish. They don't seem to have that particular offer anymore because it looks like they're out of volume 4, but the remaining volumes are $6 each ($10 for volume 2 + artbox). So definitely be on the lookout.

Amazon and Rightstuf for me. If I can't find what I'm looking for at either, then it's off to ebay. xD

<cough>

Well getting DVD box sets for $18 that are usually far more *is* kinda nice...

:thumbup:

specially as they taint bootleg either...

:thumbdown:

And replacing my "full sized" DVD cased versions with thinpack versions means more room on shelf for, well, more...

:drool:

Depends on how much you want to spend:(you can google most of these btw but NSCX is kinda so so to google.)

Play asia is good for anine anything but they overcharge like nuts at certain items

Ebay is good for deals but sometimes they either overcharge or have fakes x.x Also it's ebay so

Play tech asia has various dvds, animu, and anime goods but I think they mostly specialize in dvds and movies....

The one I go to a lot is NCSX: It has everything and I found the chocobo ds lite case that I could not find anyplace else >w< www.ncsx.com
ACen 2013 Cosplay:
Hero from SMT: DS2, Emmet/Kudari from Pokemon Black and White, Roppi Izaya from Durarara, Hitoshura human form from SMT.

All the random avatars this time are from LJ and I don't own any of them. Some of the avatars are credit to aristocracy, Taku ♫ arthursandwich, noxjustxnoin, imperial-code, dojicons, narrante, dino-cookie, shiroyuki_kun, takerzmuse, and ushitora_icons at LJ. I DON'T OWN ANY OF THE ICONS.


Currently into and playing: All Megaten games, Blazblue series, and P4MU. Waiting for: Pokemon BW2 and BB3.

I like Play Asia for games. If you have a game console that can play Japanese Imports, this is where I bought my Project Diva game. ;w; I'm in love with the thing. haha! (though they do overcharge...)

Most of my ordering of figures and merch is from AmiAmi, since they keep to retail price and a lot of times have great discounts to boot:
http://www.amiami.jp/shop/?set=english

I shop at Otacute here and there. They get the Touhou figmas and nendos, among other things. Their prices are awesome for Touhou things, and pretty decent for anything else:
http://www.otacute.com/

Hobby Search is also pretty great, I've ordered from them a few times and they have good deals in their bargain bin quite often!
http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/

Mandarake is great for secondhand stuff! I recently got an older figure I haven't seen other than when she's going for over 70 dollars for 20 bucks. There are tons of other good deals to be had, also. =3

And then of course, for American released anime, I'll shop with Rightstuf:
