So, I'm in it about $140.
Haha! You are
literally the guy who nabbed it from this poor fellow!

Haha. Oh man! That's so funny/awesome but sad for him.
I went back and forth on ordering it for a while, but decided to use part of my tax return to buy it, and not try and wait for pay day.

Haha, good that someone on Kanzenshuu got it at least. I figured as much.

Curse you
Nah hope it turns up okay though. I think some people are finally starting to realize that they won't get $400 for the box so hopefully more sub-$200 'deals' will be turning up in the near-future.

Update on that DBox 2. I got an email saying my money was being refunded. No reason given.
So, who knows.

Seller probably had regret and will re-list at a much higher price. Sorry to hear that. Has happened to me before.

Damn dude that's lame. You'd think they shouldn't be able to just revoke a sale like that.

Picked up Raging Blast used for $10 at the local Family Video. I contemplated picking up the $10 copy of DBZ: Kinect they had but decided against it since I have no way to play it.
As for Raging Blast... Good god is the camera terrible in this game!

Good for you now you own DBGT with Dragon Box-quality like, except it's compressed on DVD5s unfortunately. I just repackaged them on two DBGT boxes.
Book Depository today confirmed that my Dragon Ball Full Colour Vol. 02/20 is on its way.

3 episodes to a DVD5 is fine.

Mm, exactly. Each episode on the GT Dragon Box is 1.2GB. Plenty of room for 3 episodes a disc on a DVD5.

It doesn't look very good at times due to the compression made on them.There's been countless screenshot comparisons.

The mythical Chapter 19 Title Page!
(If you're not afraid of creasing the cover, might it be possible to get a decent scan of said title page?
)

Appreciated, though I now have all the official
Jump release dates for the entire run of the series. Thanks anyway!
