My guess is between £24.99 and £29.99. As AoL's preorders always knock 25% off the RRP, then Amazon will most likely be lower that £29.99.

I have Aniplex USA's third LE set on pre-order at UP1, but I will still buy this for casual watchings.

And of course Jerome bitches at his customers about a potential set of people going "£40 is a bit much" (Which it isn't IMHO but if you draw attention to your self well, you're only setting yourself up for it, aren't you?)

Jerome has a point though. To import all of the LE Aniplex sets, it's cost me £210. Just to order one regular BD volume would cost me £30-40.

Someone did actually pipe up with a "dat's expensive derp" comment, which is what prompted Jerome to write the "if anyone else..." tweet.

To put things into perspective, the three barebones Aniplex USA Blu-rays are $40 EACH from Right Stuf. Even without shipping or customs that's about £75 for the entire series. To put things even more into perspective, the Samurai Girls Blu-ray has a retail price of £45 - a fiver more than Madoka. Ell oh ell.

I'll probably just get it to see what the fuss is about.

Whether I get it for the current date depends mainly on Manga.

Yeah, the solution to that is growing a thicker skin. Not to be a whiny bitch.

All being a whiny bitch serves is to make you look like an idiot (been there done that) and tempts me to starkly repeat the comments (thoguh I'm totaly cool with the RRP being £40 as it generaly means I'll be getting it for 35-30 some) to piss him off.

Like I've said before, it's a wonder he's still working with Manga with his behaviour.

not sure what it's got to justify a blu ray over k-on and FMA, but lets see where this goes
