You should get it from Amazon.com or Rightstuf.com if you live outside the US, Right now Amazon has the cheapest price for the dragonboxes outside of the US.

I really want to order from Amazon.com, but I'll probably have to pay extra because of customs. :evil:

I always seem to miss out on these sales where they are the lowest prices ever. I got mine from Rightstuf for $36.
I can't believe they are still doing this $22.99 stuff. They should just say $23
/rant

My most recent Dragonball purchase hasn't happened yet. But I am going to get the DBZ steelbooks that are on sale at Best Buy as soon as I get out of work.
I got Vol 3 for $22.99 at Best Buy too. I just couldn't pass up that deal. It was just so shocked. Since when does Best Buy have the cheapest price? lol

I know right. Best Buy is finally living up to it's name (for a limited time only).

Yesterday, my Daizenshuu 2: The Story Guide arrived! I bought it at Amazon Japan, it's cheap but the have good condition and the shipping doesn't even take 5 days! and the Daizenshuu 1: The Complete Illustrations should come today.
The Daizenshuus is bigger than I thought.
Here's the Daizenshuu 2: The Story Guide!
Image
Here's a size comparison, between the Daizenshuu and Dragon Box Z 3! as you can see it's quite bigger!

I remember that there are rare things on Daizenshuu, what are they? I think it's call "Shenron times"

What's the difference between the gel and the tape?
Also does anyone know why some people remove the backs?
Next to get; Leged of Saiyan figures and Freeza's force

If anyone sees
Any of the Legend of Saiyan line going cheapish
Or any other Banpresto DBZ figure :)

If anyone has a cooler steelbook dvd that wants to sell it (prefer new but used is fine) when/if the dragon box movies comes out contact me :)

I read that some people got it with tape and peeled a lot of the back off, while with gel, the flyer on the back is easily peeled off...

The flyer on the back isn't really part of the packaging, it's more an advertisement so some people don't really want it on there.

Thanks guys, I've left mine on there, I think it's a part of the Dragon Box so all 3 of mine have it on there, I think ,y 1st box might be taped, but on two & three I know they're gel.

I had tape on my Dragon Box 3. So I added a wet sponge to the flyer, and pressed for half a minute. It came off easily, and only a few specs of the artwork was removed. Credit goes to SSJSteve for the idea/help. :D

I bought all the Viz Graphic Novels... EXCEPT volumes 15 and 20 of Z.
Because my local distributor (Madman) was having a sale on their website and had all of It except those two volumes in stock.
All of Dragonball was $5 Australian each.
And Z was $3.50 Australian each. I took the opportunity to get them all.
Now I just gotta come across 15 and 20 and I'll be all set!

Mitsuwa in IL are selling DBZ Kai toys which are: The red and green Saiyan scouters, Trunk's sword, the dragon radar and Goku wrist band plastic shooting thing lol (I didn't buy that one).

Each one was $8.75 and I bought 5 items and it was a total of $48.95 which is great because just ONE scouter on Ebay go for like $34.95 +$18.23 in shipping or $37.99 +$11.69 shipping, theres NOTHING cheaper than that, and other places online to get scouters are out of stock currently so if you have a Mitsuwa where you live DRIVE THERE ASAP!!

Here's the few Dragonball-related items from my recent Amazon haul:

I still need to receive "Bojack Unbound", as it was sent in a separate shipping envelope.
Next quest: Buy the Super: Broly and Super Hero Blurays, also Daima whenever that releases in the states. Also the Super Manga!

Fan of Dragon Ball Z and various other Anime since '98! ^^
