I don't know? That website seems kinda phony to me??? Besides I got mine off of Amazon Japan for 12.00$ roughly about 1000¥.
No, it's legit. See
these reviews. How long ago did you buy your copy? I checked Amazon Japan, but the cheapest new copy they have from their sellers costs about 5000 yen.
Oh ok!! Well the price probably shot up! I bought mines 3 weeks ago for the cheap price. Still a good buy anyway considering they are going for 50$ on ebay!

Dragon Ball Z Kai part's 1, 2 and 3 for $50 NZD ($40.88 SD)
Quite a steal considering what they normally sell for. Now all I need to get is Part's 6, 7 and Pre-Order for Part 8.

Just ordered Dragon-box 3!
Now I just gotta wait for it to get in the mail
The Dragonboxes are like a middle aged woman who still looks good through simply taking good care of her skin and body with maybe a tiny bit of makeup while the Orange Bricks are like a middle aged woman who get's 50 tons of botox, makeup and plastic surgery in order to look younger and as a result looks even worse. ~ ringworm128

Purchased Madman's two Piccolo Daimao sets to make up for that shitty $60 auction in which I didn't receive anything.
I know there
might be Dragon Boxes coming down the line, but right now I really wanted to get some Dragon Ball under my belt. They'll probably end up being sold when and if the Dragon Boxes come out, as well as the Movie 4-Pack which I'm gonna buy.

If this counts, I bought a Mexican bootleg for all three series. The Dragon Ball portion was pretty good, had openings and endings, and even NEPs! Ahem, DBZ and GT were so bad that I'm replacing them with homemade bootlegs.
Not that I condone bootlegging. It's the only way to watch the Mexican dub nowadays unless you live where it is being broadast on TV. Besides, I already legally own all three series so it's fine.

The complete SCultures line.
Lots more to post but this is the most noteable. Also got 2x of that IK SSJ Goku, considering doubles of the 100% Max Power Freeza.
Love the Goku:
Otaku at heart.
Come visit me and my collection

Yes they are? To the best of my knowledge got them awhile ago. I don't know if they are THE old ones since I don't know how many releases of the comics there were. The Dragon ball Z ones were being bid on but there was no love for the Dragon Ball ones so I got to snatch them up for a great price xD .There are a lot behind that one.

I don't think I'll unseal the game to play the UMD disc, instead I'll download a backup, remove unneeded files and make it smaller for the memory card. Plus, it's faster to play from the MS than UMD (disc).
FUNimation 2015 Releases I want:

An official release of the Mexican dub. 5 volumes with the first 52 episodes of Z collected in a little boxset. Tanooki Kuribo did a review thing of the first volume somewhere around here.
