LOL! you just reminded me one of the ironies that I find in google

Sometimes I search something in specific in google that is hard to find, and in my desperate attempt in finding it I use any result I find and between those results I find a link to a forum topic that a certain user requests something similar or the exact thing I want, which makes me exited, since I've found what I was looking for.
so when I scroll down for a user to post the thing I wanted.......
Then he/she responds "use Google"
when I hear that all my hopes and dreams are shattered ( just to exaggerate)
and I say to myself " didn't I use Google to find this to begin with?"
The irony  ;D

For the NorthAmerican (DVD Region1) market, the original distributor AnimEigo is STILL offering their entire UruseiYatsura catalog for $7.99 per DVD! Mind you, that's still a lot of DVD's for the Whole Thing (like, what, 61 DVD's?), but the cut-rate price makes them a viable alternative to trolling through eBay for used-DVD sources of the material.

The only thing AnimEigo doesn't have is movie2 (BeautifulDreamer), which was distributed by CentralPark Video.

eBay is the first place to look!

I found this nice gem on eBay. You'll get all of the TV episodes, movies and OVAs. (More info if ya click the link below)

Is that box set still made? I don't like buying DVDs second hand.

I probably not. It's gonna be really hard to find this brand new. Good thing about eBay is you contact the seller and ask him/her questions.

To my knowledge, there was NEVER a box set of DVD's of EVERYTHING from UruseiYatsura (just to clear that up); AnimEigo had "boxed" sets of 5 TV DVD's per box, a box of all 5 movies (that THEY published) and a box of all 6 OVA's. Just for information, you may want to check their site and see what may be available in box-form, but I can tell you there's NO price break doing it that way now (with their new low-pricing structure).

I looked at that but I don't think its real, no such box set exists as I've checked the animeigo website. If you look at the image it says volumes 46-50.

It's probably not a boxset then. I think the seller is just giving you everything.
