If I have a good experience I may just use this site when possible going forward, I'm getting tired of Ebay seller shenanigans. Of the shops here... I've had nothing but great experiences with G and J Rarities and mikeystoyz. One USPS issue with a Laser Blazer shipment (out of many lol) that was promptly remedied. I would highly recommend all three.

What's really odd/sad is that I've sold a bunch of discs on ebay and none have been posted here. Lddb needs more advertisement. What did you get? Been awhile since I browsed. I usually like to wait for a seller that is dumping a bunch at once.

I'm waiting for it in the mail, its an anime that I was cheap on when someone had it listed for 3 years, even had my wife send offers on her account but they eventually sold it for around 40 or 50. Then this person had it listed for the past few months, when I sent an offer on my account I saw that it said in the email there was one person watching, and that was me So they finally caved and took my offer, very excited to get it, may not be worth much but very excited. Will have to post a pic as i've been hunting for the obscure OVA stuff, or as the one is listed on the cover OAV Original Animation Video HAHAHA May have a few to sell but probably not just picking up and enjoying now that I just finished my last room of plastering and painting

Some stuff from Japan arrived today. Bit of a mixed bag both in content and condition. Two of the discs are sadly cracked. A first for me ordering from Japan. Bitterly disappointed too as they are not easy/cheap titles. I've lodged a complaint so hopefully something good will come of it. A refund and another hunt at the least I hope. First up. Here it is.......The almighty......The brilliant....The soopoyb! MASAYOSHI TAKANA GUITAR FANTASIA...................... DIGITAL EDITION!......and it has a very small crack on the edge of the disc. GUTTED. I was searching for this for MONTHS (just ask Mr. GB!). The crack is very small but it is there nonetheless. I don't know if I should risk playing it for fear of destroying my Laserdisc players. Such a tricky disc to find too. Next up is Brian Tilsley's Monday Evening. This purchase is entirely Julien's fault. I have nothing further to add. This is the brilliant Lady Battle Cop. Oh and it's got a whopper crack on Side 2 rendering it unplayable. Great. This is Video Drug Vol 3. This is all pokefraker's fault. This is, err, I forget the name. It's a sequel to the film I also forget the name of. Anyway, you'd be forgiven for thinking it's some kind of smutty powerwank fiesta. It's not. It appears to be a film in the vein of The Joy Of Torture and The Joy Of Torture II: Oxen Split Torturing. Both of these films I forget the name of are available over on Jeff's video rental service in HD, in Japan only. I had a look at the trailers before buying the Laserdisc as I wanted to be sure it was one of those gory splatter films and not the Japanese powerwank version of Knave or Razzle. I want to see if there are any differences between the Laserdisc and HD versions. Also there's some superb gore effects that await in these if the trailers are anything to go by on Jeff's website. I'm torn over if these will be better than Oxen Split Torturing (pun intended). That film will take some beating though (pun intended).

Oh no what an absolutely sickener and especially so regarding the Guitar Fantasia LD Ted If it’s a very small crack on the outer edge there’s hopefully a decent chance it’s still safe to play, then again if your going to risk it I’m sure it will be initially with the 925....my fingers are crossed for you mate!

It's spinning now as I type this! So happy as you know what a pain in the arse this disc was to find. May be a while.before it shows up again but I'll keep a look out for you. The analogue one is still popping up from time to time but it sells fairly quickly so you need to jump on it when it appears if possible. Meant to watch only 5 mins of it but now I'm watching the whole thing haha! I'll put a review up later if anyone is interested. Gutted about Lady Battle Cop as I love that film. I'll have to source another some day or just get the DVD.

Arrived fully intact! I put the discs in the jacket of the one that was broken since it's in better condition (left). Will spin it this evening to see if it's actually rot-free. Edit: side 1 and the start of side 2 have some light speckling (not distracting at all), sides 3 and 4 are pretty much clean as a whistle.
