Seriously, if you see $5 (Canadian) anime DVDs in Chinatown, don't even bother, most of them either have no or horrible subs. Then there's the other kind who sell DVDs for $18-$15 per disc, which tend to be just fansubs.
My rule of thumb, whatever you can get here, it's usually cheaper. Don't buy from Chinatown unless you're really desperate for rare stuff (like stuff that pratically just finished broadcasting) or rare ADV stuff.
Though, not all Chinatown stuff is bad, I know one place that sells 3 disc MAC stuff for $35, and 2 discs MAC stuff for $25 which isn't THAT bad, but that's only like ONE place in all of Toronto.
