i live in houston, (aka ADV city) and although they never called me for voice acting tryouts (its like a year waiting list) i do know that at a time many years after they stopped selling fansubbed VHS and moved on to dvd they hired temp workers for their wherehouses...the same year that gasaraki was released and so everywhere in the city...for a while, unopened gasaraki sets were selling for 15-50$. because they were all stolen. couple this with the fact that many "casual" anime fans found this excellent show to be too "slow" and there you have it...cheap series. in my bookstore we get adv ovestock, noir R1S for 7.98 new A.D. Police 2 DVD sets for 7.98 neo ranga, gasaraki, key the metal idol, lots of stuff, of course never complete cuz it has to be spread around the whole chain so it always like vol. 1, 3, 4, and 7.
