Not into anime myself but that is a great looking set I always avoided buying those kind of discs since it would never end (again) I can imagine the weight. I had about 300 discs laying around I want to get rid of and finally found the time to put them on a decent (spare) shelf since hauling them around was getting very Great purchase Customs also a problem like here in Belgium? they are getting expensive these days

The customs isn't really a problem. We have to pay 25% VAT on goods with a value over 350 NOK (37 EUR/42 USD, total including shipping and insurance cost). Yeah, we have to pay VAT on the shipping cost as well, unless it is a gift. Very stupid. If the shipment is declared as a gift, then the limit is 1000 NOK (107 EUR/122 USD, without shipping and insurance). Of course this was shipped as a gift and declared with a value of 100 USD. Below the limit, but still not a ridiculously low value that the customs will rise an eyebrow over. ![Wink ;)](./images/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif) The weight were 25kg, or 55 lbs. Quite heavy!

Was it released more than once with different catalog numbers? The shipping box isn't in the best shape, as you can see in the first picture. うる星やつら is still intact on the box and the styrofoam too, which probably is the most important thing. ![Smile :)](./images/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif) Don't know if the box gives it more value, or the fact that the discs are still sealed. I'll probably open up some discs some time if I feel like watching it anyway. xtempo wrote: that's awesome. I was able to find the first volume of the TV Series on VHS for 50 cents. I wish someday to get all of it like Maison Ikkou but some things seem almost impossible. That's really cool! I actually want this show on DVD, but seems it is very expensive. Didn't think it were so extremely high demand for this show to drive up the prices that much! This LD set is really cheap in comparison to the DVD prices. Maybe I should give VHS a shot instead. ![Razz :P](./images/smilies/icon_razz.gif)

Congratulations on scoring the biggest LD box set and one of the legendary anime laserdisc releases. Owning one of these back in the day was a mark of a very serious anime fan, willing to spend the thousands the LD50 cost new, and this ancient test of Otaku-ness (1997) had owning the UY LD50 as a question: http://www.cs.hmc.edu/~belgin/otaku.htmlI still need to get the LD50 to put next to my copy of the Maison Ikkoku LD24. Bigger is better with laserdisc, and the LD50 delivers in sheer mass and great original cover art for each disc.

that would be... Impressive to Own. fortunately, -for the sake of storage space- my own personal dream LD box set is quite modest and manageable; ![Image](http://i291.photobucket.com/albums/ll310/shaorin-chan/LASERDISC/Mamotte%20Shugogetten%20LD%20collection%202_zpsq4otwdqd.jpg)

I'll probably open up some discs some time if I feel like watching it anyway. In the Anime LD Cyclopedia it has the following note: "[Released in 1987 and 1991, and now in 1994. Contains all 218 episodes.]" On top of that there is also PCLA-00150 from the year 2000. So it could have been released 4 times, with four different catalog numbers. I saw a set on yahoo auctions once with big "KAC" logos on the box, which are not on the KFLD-1001~1050 in that way. (KAC = Kitty Anime Club) Same for the Maison Ikkoku 24 LD set - more than one catalog number release exists: PCLA-00149 and KFLD-0001~0024 are in the database.

Noticed a 50LD set came up on eBay, first disc has PCLA-00017. Probably a newer set than mine, then? This one isn't as nice looking, the artwork doesn't fill the entire jacket, no box (at least in the pictures) and every disc has an obi strip. Also it costs 500 dollar more than what mine did. ![Laughing :lol:](./images/smilies/icon_lol.gif) Here is the link if anyone is interested: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Urusei-Yatsura- ... 25ac4ac856

Price offer is possible for this, could be interesting for US residents.
