As i've said before. I like saving money and space as well. If I turned all my HK's and Perfect R1 Collections into single volumes i'd need 5x the shelf space.
ADV is pretty good, but companies need to do more. Hellsing is a perfect example of needless price hikes. There is no way someone can justify $120 for 13 episodes. Some boxsets, like Gundam Wing, are great. $150 for 50 eps isn't that bad. Gasaraki sells for $80 ($30 online).
If they can make money selling Gasaraki that cheap in seperate cases with a box can someone tell me how selling a perfect collection box for the same or something like Hellsing for $120 is justified?
These companies can still release a cheaper version. I'd replace my HK Hellsing in a second if they charged only $20-60 for it in a perfect collection case (like A.D. Police). I picked up A.D. Police for $16 at Best Buy. These companies CAN make money selling things cheap, they'd just rather make more money over making fans happy. (Sorry for rambling, very tired)
