ADV’s Anime Sale returns

Every few months ADV holds the same sale. It’s not a rare event by any stretch but it really is a great sale. Basically the sale includes only ADV titles ranging anywhere from 5 or 6 dollars a DVD for older stuff to the 15 to 20 dollar range for newer releases. I’ve ordered from these sales in the past and have not been dissapointed. They’ll even throw in a “free gift” which I suppose could be anything but last time I made an order and fully expected a free bookmark or coaster it was a free Angelic Layer vol. 1 DVD.

The only downside to this deal is that your barcodes will be drilled. Yes drilled. They literally drill a hole in the DVD case where the barcode is so that it becomes obscured to the point of not being resold. I imagine this is because some of the cheaper priced items are cheap enough that retailers could order them for less than they could through their normal channels.

The reasons for the sale are always random. This time it’s celebrating “Golden Week” and the sale is on until May 6th. So head over to ADV’s web site and see if anything on that list peeks your interests and if you miss the deadline don’t sweat it because another sale is always just around the corner.

Oh and this is not an ad. I’m not making any money off of this post.
