I'm the same really but am a little worried that this version would sell out what with it being limited. It's also only CDN $20 at the moment (roughly £12) which isn't too far off the UK price for the bare-bones amaray. The shipping kills it a little though (£9 odd), but still worthy of the price I hope...

It really does look nice - can't wait to see it in hand.

Yeah, I've been guilty in the past of going a bit crazy with certain sales and then having to live a little frugally for a while whilst perhaps having to cancel pre-orders or skip over releases thanks to my spendthrift ways.

My car is due its service/MoT this month so I'm hoping it won't be too much of big hit to the bank balance. I'm also (hopefully!) finally going to ordering my shelving units for my media room re-model too so an expensive month for sure, which is why I haven't bought much in the way of BDs/DVDs/LPs lately.

The only things I've got on pre-order for this month (I got paid today so a 'month' for me is from the 21st-20th) is Eureka's Buster Keaton and Murnau sets (and I'm considering maybe cancelling the Keaton set as I doubt I'll have time to watch it for a while). I also have Arrow's Female Prisoner Scorpion set hopefully arriving this month too, but thankfully I've already paid for that one upfront what with ordering direct.

I'm sure I'll enjoy filling my new shelves when everything's done though.

There's something wonderful about putting dvds on nice new shelving. Geez I'm a sad bastard . I've currently got 9 bookcases full with about 60 dvds/blus stacked loose on the floor. Thing is I've completely run out of floorspace.

Nah, I hear you - there is something overtly satisfying about laying your collection out on some brand spanking new shelves and admiring in it all its glory... sign me up to the sad bastard club too.

I wanted to like The Witch, but just didn't. The goat gave me the giggles, definitely funnier than the goat in Drag Me To Hell. I appreciate what they were going for, but it just didn't really come off for me.

Got these two delivered today from CEX.

I was anxious about using them, especially for LE, fearing things would be missing or damaged, but I'd accrued about £80 worth of vouchers and decided to catch-up on some Arrow titles I'd missed.

Nekromantic LE cost me £32, but I traded-in the regular release and got a further £8 off. There's one or two creases/scuffs on the spine, but everywhere else is fine. Also, everything's present: book, postcards et al.

Battles Without Honour & Humanity is absolutely mint. No signs of wear at all - it's even got that new smell! Paid £50 for it, which isn't bad as it's going for £80 on Amazon. Blind buy for me so just hope I like them!

Delivery was £2.50 for both, signed for, posted yesterday.

Have to say I'm rather pleased!
