actually, they stopped taking new retailers lately/screened them. They even dropped a bunch of accounts due to the lack of resources. The only reason you see MI stuff for cheap is people competing on prices. These same people are like the ones on ebay selling 3 disk MI for $17.95, and $9.95 shipping (and these are US sellers).
Even some of the anime stores online (US ones), charge ludacris prices for shipping claiming a handling fee (like $8.95 for flat rate ship, no im not talking about IA here, so dont start thinking that..), all they do is handle them into a box and ship it.
MI is still fairly expensive per disk on the wholesale level, even if you buy a ton its still the same price. B
