Help finding DVDs...

[silverthunder]

I have a request, if anyone is willing and able to help. I'm looking at a really cute looking (but old) magical girl series called Saint Tail. All that seems to be available for purchasing the series is separate DVDs, which I hate collecting (particularly since buying the whole series at once would put me over $200 - but I'd be way more willing to spend that amount on a nice box set than individual DVDs from individual sellers on ebay or something).

Does anyone know of any hard-to-find or out-of-print box sets? Or is there anyone selling the whole set of DVDs at once? Please tell me if you know anything!

The only "box set" that was released were the last 21 episodes in one set -- there isn't even a dub track on those DVDs. Well, and the first DVD had been packaged with the first volume of the manga, once upon a time.

Other than that, there was no official box set -- TokyoPop almost even cancelled the series.

I'm not really sure where you might be able to get the DVDs of the series...

Sorry I can't be of more help, since it is a lovely series.

They have the DVDs listed at Discount Anime DVD, but I don't know for sure if I can get them, since they're listed as 'backordered'. I sent them a message to ask about that. Ebay has a bunch of copies of the box set of volumes 6-8 (I'm assuming these are the last 21 episodes you were talking about) and some scattered other volumes as well.

I'm not really interested in a dub track, just the series on DVD. It's nice to have a box set, but if there isn't one, I'll probably try to order the series in individual DVDs.

Thanks for the info!

They might be out of print is the one problem. I still need to pick up volumes 4+5, personally. And yeah~ Those are the last 21 eps I'm talking about. "The Enchanted Collection."

I'm just mentioning it because that's how they were at the end... Didn't even want the effort for the dub tracks. And it is nice to have box sets... Wish there was a set, but sadly, only the last three volumes. Also, those last three weren't released in anything other than that box set, so it's sadly awkward having individuals and then a box set. At least... for me it is. >>;
