From what I have gathered in my experience, people that just start collecting HK anime like the Gatefolds, because they are thick and a few sets make their shelf seams fuller, those that have extended collections prefer the new EZDVD sets since they would be able to fit alot more... in more uniform fashion

We buy these because we can afford them NOT because we're cheap and we're definitely cheap.
Now I think your the one that needs to shut the hell up.:mad:
I totally agree with you on R1 prices, shit-240 bucks for a 26 part series on 6 dvds? Personelly I liked the older FX gatefold boxes, but from a pratical point of view the amaray cases take up less space on the storage shelf, but since the majority of my collection is composed of hkdvds I guess I really don't care-IT'S THE ANIME STUPID, not the packageing that counts.

Yeah I know, but I still like having the art that comes with the gatefolds, but that's definatley not the reason why I buy them.
I am an extremely cheap bastard, hell i'll wait till i can find a game for 4 bucks till i buy it.
However i don't bitch about my cheap sets because they don't look pretty enough!
And not all companies rip you off. This is my opinion (therefore it is right) but ADV is very consumer conscious, hell there orphen revenge set (23 ep) sells new for 30 bucks!!!
I HATE YOU ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That's better (and we hate you too)
You are correct about ADV getting better but IMO they have a ways to go.

Im sure the feelings mutual
I think that ADV is catching a lot of heat form anime fans for releasing older series at the same prices that the newer are so they dropped the prices.
