That sounds really freaky. Are you sure your DVDs aren't bootlegged?

I dont think they are pirate versions. I get all my anime dvd from [redacted] they cary all the keychains and figures as well so it doesnt seem to be shady.
All the packaging looks as it should and all the language/subtitle settings and extras are there. The box art is inside and out behind the plastic dvd holders and all. Nothing really out of the ordinary but I'm sure it could happen.
I'm going to play around with it a bit more and see if I just had some of the variables wrong.

I hate to break this to you, but I'm looking at their website right now and I'm seeing several DVD releases that are clearly bootlegs (region-free encoding, Chinese subtitles, whole-season box sets that are far too cheap) mixed in with the ones that actually seem legitimate. And the fact that you said your DVD was "all regions" makes it sound more suspicious.

What company's logo is on the spine of the DVD case?

This one says I.G. Aniplex on the spine next to the title.
Thats a nasty thing to hear,guess Iwont be buying from that place anymore.
Breaks my heart too since they were so promp on delivery.

It would be nice if one of you moderators would remove this thread now so I dont give anymore advertising to such a site. That really wasnt my intention and I'm a bit ticked off at them now anyhow.

That goes on the moderator's drop box. I've put up a request for you.

[MOD17: This thread could be useful for recognizing bootlegs, so it can stay. I've removed every mention of the store.]
