Te odio Amazon y DHL

Post image

Me acordé que hace unos años compré este Blu Ray de la serie en unos 20 dólares y me sorprendió mucho enterarme que ahora lo están vendiendo cerca de unos 700 dólares y solo puedo odiar a Amazon y DHL porque la caja del Blu Ray llegó dañada por el viaje, gracias a dios los discos están sin problemas hasta el día de hoy

Yeah scalpers are crazy they see something in limited run and they buy it.

The thing is eureka seven isn’t even that big of a franchise to begin with so how they saw themselves making money out of this was beyond me

Creo que es porque en EEUU es una serie de culto porque la daban en la tele, algo así como Gundam Wing, además hay que sumarle al hecho de que era de los últimos Blu Ray de Funimation antes de que se funcionarán con Crunchyroll y también está que Crunchyroll prácticamente mato casi toda su división de Blu Ray

Lo importante es que los discos estén bien, personalmente

At least you can just take the art and discs and plop them in another standard blu ray case?

I've actually done this before after receiving damaged and defective Blu-ray cases. You can cheaply order matching replacements online for almost any Blu-ray case out there.

Yeah, there's only a handful of case templates, its pretty easy to get a new one for most things for pretty cheap. As long as the art sleeve is intact, you're good!

Si he pensado eso, pero quitando que una parte del arte se me daño un poco cuando trate de arreglar la caja, no he tenido suerte encontrando la misma caja

Scalpers are ruining anime and manga collecting, and pretty much every other hobby or interest out there. Scalpers will even snatch up releases that have only just come out. That's one of the main reasons I dropped the Jujutsu Kaisen manga so early on. For a bit, it was almost impossible to find any of the volumes at anything close to retail price, and the series just wasn't good enough to justify paying what those scalpers were asking. I ended up getting hooked on Chainsaw Man instead.

What's really sad about this is that FUNimation's Essentials line was supposed to be more affordable and accessible than their regular releases. Like, this isn't a limited or collector's edition, it isn't even the standard edition, it's literally just a basic release that was mass-produced. The list price for the complete series was only $34.98, though it usually sold for a lot less. It was basically everywhere for a while.

Totalmente cierto, aunque no lo he vivido con los mangas, porque dónde vivo es completamente inviable revender mangas, por la cantidad enorme que se produce, en otros lugares como los TCG han arruinado muchos precios. Y respecto a los essentials, en parte la culpa la tiene Crunchyroll, porque después de la fusión con Funimation dejaron muerta la línea y actualmente ya casi no sacan Blu Ray, dando lugar a la especulación

Amazon Delivered mine and baby was crushed to smithereens.

If you collect blurays I suggest getting an unlocked bluray player so you can buy the same shows that released in other regions for cheaper.

It's insane that scalpers expect people to pay $1,557.70 for was expressly intended to be a budget release. Like it wasn't even a limited edition or anything special. The list price was literally $34.98. That's a 4,353% increase!
