Post subject:  Price Comparisons on Tenchi Muyo DVDs!
Hey all! Thought I might help everyone out who's looking still looking to get their Tenchi fix... <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START ;) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/wink.gif ALT=";)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> Like most people, I like to get things at the cheapest prices possible, so here's a comparison of prices in my hunt for Tenchi Muyo DVDs!<br><br>Prices are current as of <!--EZCODE UNDERLINE START--><u>9/22/00</u><!--EZCODE UNDERLINE END--> <br><br><!--EZCODE BOLD START--><b> Tenchi in Tokyo Entire series</b><!--EZCODE BOLD END--> (I would've picked something else to start off, but this is the only tenchi TV series that's all out on DVD currently): <br><br><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><i> Amazon.com</i><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> - $179.84 + $9.91 shipping (UPS ground). $22.48 individually.<br><br><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><i> Robert's Anime Store (animecornerstore.com)</i><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> - $179.98 + 8.50 shipping (USPS Priority). $22.98 individually.<br><br><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><i> Buy.com</i><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> - $159.92 (also there's a coupon to take $30 off any purchase of $150 or more for new customers. There are also ones that take $10 off $30 purchases for new customers). Shipping is free on special occasions. otherwise, $9.60 in this case (UPS ground). Sometimes shipped USPS Priority. $19.99 individually (can be as low as $15-$16.26 if you're savvy and use the coupons for new customers....)<br><br><br><!--EZCODE BOLD START--><b> OVA DVD collection</b><!--EZCODE BOLD END-->:<br> <br><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><i> Amazon.com</i><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> - $101.99 (shipping $2.98 - UPS ground)<br><br><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><i> animecornerstore.com</i><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> - $87.98 (shipping $6.50 - USPS Priority)<br><br><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><i> Buy.com</i><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> - $82.99 (shipping $2.95 - UPS ground)<br><br><br><!--EZCODE BOLD START--><b> Tenchi Movies</b><!--EZCODE BOLD END-->:<br><br><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><i> Amazon.com</i><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> - $11.99, $12.73, $12.99 - all for $37.71 (shipping $4.96 - UPS ground)<br><br><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><i> animecornerstore.com</i><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> - $12.98, $12.98. $12.98 - all for $37.98 (shipping $5.50 - USPS Priority)<br><br><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><i> Buy.com</i><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> - $10.99, $10.99, $10.99 - all for $32.97 (shipping $4.85 - UPS ground)<br><br><br><!--EZCODE BOLD START--><b> Tenchi Universe</b><!--EZCODE BOLD END--> (price is per DVD):<br><br><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><i> Amazon.com</i><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> - $22.48-$25.49 ($20.99 for preorders)<br><br><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><i> animecornerstore.com</i><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> - $22.98<br><br><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><i> Buy.com</i><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> - $19.99 ($16.99 for preorders)<br><br><br><!--EZCODE BOLD START--><b> notes</b><!--EZCODE BOLD END-->:<br><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><i> Amazon.com</i><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> - I've never ordered from them, so I dunno how it is.<br><br><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><i> animecornerstore.com</i><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> - ditto. However, with USPS shipping, you'll be getting your DVDs in 2-3 business days. 4 MAX.<br><br><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><i> Buy.com</i><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> - Ordered from them once. Had no problems. They also have a new price match policy. Find it lower somewhere else, they'll match/beat it. However, I got books that time and the books were available. Some of the Tenchi DVDs are "on order", so I have no idea how long they'll take to ship. Also, you're out of luck if you live in California, Tennessee, Indiana or Massachusetts. Buy.com charges sales tax for orders shipped there. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :( --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/frown.gif ALT=":("><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br><br><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><i> Ebay.com</i><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> - I recommend NOT getting it here. Not that I'm against ebay (I find bargains there all the time), but it seems all the Tenchi DVDs are usually going for MORE than any of the other places I've just compared....<br><br>There you have it! Hope that helps anyone that's interested in buying Tenchi on DVDs! <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/smile.gif ALT=":)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br><br>Suffice to say, I bought from buy.com (I was gonna get them at animecornerstore.com, but on the day I was gonna order, I got an e-mail from buy.com about their free shipping...I checked on if they had Tenchi and they did!). I got in on the $30 off any purchase of $150 or higher AND got FREE SHIPPING! However, I had to pay sales tax since I live in CA... <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :( --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/frown.gif ALT=":("><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> I'll let you know how my experience goes, esp. for the "ON ORDER" items!<br><br>Sorry, no tape comparisons b/c I'm not getting VHS...<!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :b --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/tongue.gif ALT=":b"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br><br>Hope this helps! If you want, post prices for other online places if you find them to be around this price and have great service! <p></p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://pub19.ezboard.com/utorganrialt.showPublicProfile?language=EN>Torgan Rialt</A> at: 9/22/00 6:55:50 pm<br></i>

Yep, Buy.com is the way to go. I just got Tenchi Univ. from there with no problems. It only took a week too (including a Sunday).<br>__________________________________________________________<br><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://home.earthlink.net/~meisenberg2/_uimages/tchim034.bmp"><!--EZCODE IMAGE END--><br> <p></p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://pub19.ezboard.com/btenchimuyo79943.showLocalUserPublicProfile?login=dragonmarine>Dragon Marine</A> at: 9/23/00 6:02:44 pm<br></i>

Cool. I also got some soundtrack price listings if anyone is interested. And if you haven't read my other post, DON'T BUY FROM AMAZON. They don't have a tight running operation over there. <p> <img src = http://www.cc.utah.edu/~pjo24660/sakuya.jpg> <br> Ugly has a new face</p><i></i>

I've actually been having pretty decent luck getting Tenchi DVDs on E-bay (wait, maybe i shouldnt' tell you this till i complete my collecting *grin*) The only problem is that you can't always find the one you want, but if you are willing to wait, at least persoanlly, i tend to find things cheeper. Look out for my id, Crisi83, i usually win (though dad's gonna check my checkbook balance soon, and then it'll be bye bye e-bay! <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/smile.gif ALT=":)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br><br>~Crisi~ <p></p><i></i>
