I'm interested in v5.

Found a motherload of Sony restock today in the Goffstown store. Multiple (at least 5) copies of almost everything that's been seen lately, Memento, Batman serials, River Runs Through It, Monster SE, Steamboy, etc. The only thing I think I didn't see was Larry Flynt and the McQueen set.

Picked up a couple anime titles for whomever was looking for them, I've sent you email.

basaro, I don't suppose you saw a copy of Strangers on a Train did ya?

basaro

No, that's a Warners title, and I don't think we ever get Warner assortments around here, I've never seen them.

This was a restock of Sony titles, all the same stuff that's already been spotted over the past couple months.

Brent L

Yeah, I don't think I've ever seen the Warner batches in my area either. They should come around eventually I guess.

I now have extra copies of:
Mars Daybreak Vol.5
Mobile Suit Gundam Seed Movie #1 The Empty Battlefield
Batman (1943 serials)

if anyone wants them...

I've been to nearly every St. Louis-area Big Lots (sans Festus and taking a trip to Quincy IL/Hannibal MO), and nothing for Warner shipments at all (and only two stores got the Paramount stuff, but not much of it). So far, only one store has a TON of anime, while others have been VERY scant for anything (ie. the remodeling Alton store, and Granite City had NOTHING). Friday, I'm going to recheck two stores and cross my fingers to find a few things (namely the s-CRY-ed Anime Legends volumes and the last volume of Overman King Gainer, which I've been hunting for, for awhile).

Myself, after noticing a small Bandai anime replenishment at one BL, I snagged s-CRY-ed (Anime Legends 2-disc version) - Vol. 3 (which has the last 2 discs of the series) which was amazingly $3.

UPDATE (FRIDAY 2/01/08):
Hit all of the Big Lots in St. Louis again, as a few did a minor DVD replenishment, but nothing I bought sadly that I wanted. However, did pick up a few things from my list used (pretty much new) from a nearby FYE, which changed their used prices on a handful of things that Big Lots/DG carries.

UPDATED LIST!
I'm looking for:

.hack/SIGN - Vols. 1, 4
s-CRY-ed (Anime Legends 2-disc sets) - Vols. 1
(if possible) Tsukikage Ran - Vol. 4
Dan Doh (2-disc) - Vol. 3
IGPX - Vol. 6


Please PM me, if you've found any of these (and if you're looking for something in particular, as a few stores have been cleared out of darn near everything, but others have some anime, and a few Sony titles).

I now have an extra 2 disc AE edition of Philadephia if anyone needs it before I return it to BL.

FangsFirst

Was someone looking for Blue Thunder? I grabbed one day thanks to a vague recollection...

Kraagh

If anyone is looking for a copy of Memento (limited edition 2 disc), I have a new sealed copy.

laidbacklarkin

Want to trade it for a 2 disc Memento (sealed) ? LMK

Dr. Phibes

Ken, I just sent you a PM regarding Memento.

printerati

I resurrected The Unofficial "Big Lots" Exchange Thread in the DVD Exchange forum. Hopefully, that will help make it easier to keep track of who has/needs what. It seems to be getting a bit crowded in here.

Good job, I'm in

Ken Cline

It's on its way....

moklerman

Just saw Kevin Smith 2, Memento, Philadelphia, Casualties of War, Batman 1943 serials, Flatliners, Creature Comforts 2, etc. in central California(Bakersfield). The apparent pattern of California getting titles later than other areas seems to continue.

GenPion

I'm so sorry man! I just noticed your PM today and I haven't checked this thread since that last post! I sent you back a PM. Thanks for being so kind as to even check on those DVD's for me!

the 20% coupon will be available starting Sunday January 27th through February 3rd. You can print it on their website. There's a Blue banner towards the bottom of the page for Buzz Club members.

So I guees for those people who are just getting their Sony Titles, you were better off.

Has anybody gotten anything else besides the second shipment of Sony titles & Anime? We received those titles about 3/4 weeks ago and I checked the stores this week and they are practically empty here in Florida.

I wish they had DVDs...
