Where do you shop for anime?

The real heart of CAA; discuss specific series, issues, and things related to anime here.

amazon.com, mostly. I also went to the local anime store in my area before it went out of business. Though maybe it's just on hiatus. But why would their phone service be disconnected? Hmm...

I've also recently shopped at Discount Anime.com.

"I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies; and whoever lives and believes in me will never die. Do you believe this?" - Christ the Lord (John 11:25-26)

Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything. - James 1:2-4.

Remember - the Lord will be with you - always. :)

Ebay mostly. I know it's not the best place to buy stuff like that, but usually you can get a really good deal if you're meticulous about checking the description and the seller's feedback. Also, thisisanime.com is a great place to buy the Japanese imports, which are a great bargain if you don't care about getting the English dub. I recently realized that most of the collections my sisters and I bought off ebay originally came from This Is Anime.

Do not be overrighteous, neither be overwise—
why destroy yourself?

Do not be overwicked, and do not be a fool—
why die before your time?

It is good to grasp the one and not let go of the other.
The man who fears God will avoid all extremes.

Almost always Rightstuf. Occasionally, I have bought anime on eBay.

[font="Trebuchet MS"][SIZE="4"][color="RoyalBlue"]FYE seems to have marked down some of their anime titles. I picked up Chobits and vol. 1 of "Ah! My Goddess" the other day for $29! I don't know about you, but that sounds like a great deal to me!

I'm kinda eBay bruised after my last excursion--I thought I was getting the "Perfect Collection" of Cowboy Bebop, but what I got was the bootleg version that was just copies of the original release DVD's. It looks authentic, but if you know what to look for, you can tell it's a copy! And to answer your question--no, I didn't send 'em back![/color][/SIZE][/font]

i just spent 80 dollars on anime there and i only got 4 dvds
=X
oh im new by the way xD hello ^_^


Heh...let ME do your anime shopping, and I can buy about 20 anime DVD's and a box of pocky for $80!

Granted, some of them may be used DVD's, but hey, at least the pocky's good. :sweat:

Oh, while I'm on the subject guys, I may be preaching to the proverbial choir here, but don't be afraid of used DVD's! A lot of places like EBGames, FYE and GameStop have a great used DVD collection, and they have an almost zero tolerance for any surface scratches!
