Bye, bye, good deal
Oct. 12th, 2009 09:10 amLast week, I was browsing Right Stuf's Bargain Bin and noticed they have an incredible deal on the Gankutsuou: The Count of Monte Cristo boxset. The original price was $150, and they're selling it for $27. O.o Since the show was on my "To Watch" list, I immediately moved the series to the top of my Netflix queue, hoping that even if I couldn't watch the entire show before they sold out, I could at least try to see enough to decide if it was worth buying.
Well, with such a great deal, of course the supply is running out fast. They only have thirteen left in stock, and I've only watched the first disc. (I'll be watching the second later today.) I like what I've seen so far, but I'm not sure if I like it enough yet to own it. Looks like I'm going to have to let this one go. *sigh* If I had more money, I wouldn't mind making a mostly-blind buy, but with Christmas coming up and lots of other series I want more, I can't really justify it.
Oh, well. Maybe they'll get another shipment in later, like they did Full Metal Panic: Fumoffu! Vol. 3, which I'll be picking up to replace the messed up disc in my boxset. (I doubt it, though, since it's a Geneon title.) If not, I think the singles are in the bin too, and I believe Funimation rescued the license, so there will be other opportunities if I decide I do want it after finishing it. But I still hate having to pass up such a great deal...
