Those two Spanish DBZ tapes I just got today.

They're the two TV specials for Bardock and Trunks.

Maybe they're like the forbidden fruit. You know that they're horrible and that you shouldn't buy them, and that makes you want them even more. :lol:

Well in Australia you can only get orange boxes, I figured I'll finish it off before getting dragon boxes.

Easier then importing.

You mean, go down to the retail store and buy them right away or through the internet?

It just takes a couple more days than ordering from national.

Not sure if this counts, but my mother recently received a big check from work (something about not getting a raise/bonus in 3 years, so money was owed to her and others or something... I dunno <.>), and was so kind as to buy me a video game from the game-shop in the mall, which I picked RB2.

(Yes, I could pay for it myself, but she offered, so... yeah.)
