Would it be possible for someone who has purchased this set to help me out with a copy of the Kan Shimozawa short story from the booklet?

I would very much appreciate it. :)

I decided to do a little bit of new years' splurging and go ahead and order this. I found a good deal on Amazon for a "nick and dent" copy selling for about $120. Hope the packaging isn't damaged too badly since it looks really looks like one of the great "coffee table" Blu-Ray/DVD sets.

Barnes and Noble has regular 50% off sales on Criterion titles, those of you who want to get a good deal on a copy of this might want to keep an eye out for one of those.

Since I now have the Criterion Zatoichi collection, I am considering selling off my HVE (17 volumes) and AnimEigo (7 volume set) editions... would anyone here be interested in them? Not sure what to ask for them, but if interested please PM me and maybe we can discuss things.... :wink:

If this post is inappropriate, please let me know... don't mean to post verboten things but I wanted to give Dojo members a chance at theses DVDs.

The boxset is on sale again at 50% off in Barnes and noble. http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/dvd-zat ... 5515112116

Barnes has a 15% discount right now so I received the box set for $95 with free shipping. With tax it came up to $104.
