Does anybody know a website/place in Australia that the whole set of DVDs can be bought from?

They sell them fairly regularly on Ebay. They usually go for about $150 for the whole lot (these are bootlegs though)

I would buy them, but they've ALWAYS got something like a $30 shipping charge to send from Hong Kong.... so you end up paying $180 or so in total.

Where abouts in Aus do you live? Apparently they've got em in a few comic stores too, but i've never been there.

If you want this one, better jump in quick. It's got 4 hours now, from the time of writing this message left.

They're much cheaper than that on ebay, it's the shipping charge that's really expensive, especially to Au. The one's I got were from sundevildvd.com- don't know if it'll ship to Au.

Well, can't expect cheapest prices on everything that has to be ordered from overseas & isn't bulk bought.

Managed to grab a few manga's from town for $20 each. Not too shabby.

unfortunately, they didn't have any of the DVD's sad.gif and they told me the only thing to do is import or wait for the Americanized versions (ack!)

The Ebay versions also are becoming hideously expensive (i.e. over $200 AU)

This site
http://www.animetoxic.com/pcat.cfm?path=10...s1v=Initial%20D

Will allow me to get them at around $150 (AU) for the set... (about 89 US)

Has any one had any experience with them and would/wouldn't reccomend them for any reason? Thanks.
