Well my shipment from Interact came today. I got both Heart de Roommate and Crescendo. They are legit copies and were brand-new and in beautiful condition. It took them 2-days to process my order, but they emailed me when appropriate and they were a great internet store to deal with. Their prices are great and I give them a great recommendation as a source of cheap G-Collections games.
How much do they charge for shipping. I can get the games for a little more but no shipping. If this place doesn’t charge for shipping then it would be a really good deal.
@SuperDeadite: Glad my link could be of use.
@bishounen_blue: Here’s their shipping rates: http://www.interactcd.com/shipping/
It looks like the shipping to Europe is $10, which is pretty steep. What’s this other place that you get your games from?
$10 is pretty steep, yes, but if you order from eBay, it’s $15…
Don’t forget that the euro is worth significantly more than the dollar nowadays.
45 / 1.2 = 37.5
45 = game price + shipping
I almost always order from Roberts Anime Corner Store.

All the $50 retail games can be purchased for $40, and they charge nothing for shipping if the order is over $99. So I pretty much buy three games at a time for $120. I did make use of the J-list special because for unknown reasons RACS charges $30 for snow drop and $35 for critical point. So don’t buy those games from RACS. Since we are doing a compare/contrast between stores, what do you guys think about the shipping methods used by various places. When I got my package from J-list, the items had no protection and were just loose inside of a padded envolope. That would normally be okay but I ordered Hourglass of Summer which has that soft outter case, and the case was crushed when I got it. RACS used hard boxes to ship so this won’t be an issue with them. I’m picky about things looking like new when I pay for new. (I don’t buy DVDs from Babages!) I can’t remember, but I think that GC ships using hard boxes as well. How about Peach Princess? Is it the same as J-list? I know a place to pre-order Little My Maid for a lower price.

But, I won’t order from them because:
1) I want to give as much support to PeaPri as I can with my sale and 2) I want to make sure I get the extras. But if the extras are going to get damaged in the shipping process I would be dissapointed.
Peach Princess ships through J-list, so yes, it’s the same. I also just got Hourglass of Summer through Peach Princess (soft envelope packaging), and the “Special Art Book” package was a bit crushed.
Thanks for the new links. I’m also very tempted to order through Anime Castle, but I want the extras too. Also, PP doesn’t charge for shipping on pre-orders, so the cost difference is actually only about $10.
Here’s a link to get Hourglass of Summer for $19.45 + a minimum of $2.98 shipping: http://www.bestprices.com/cgi-bin/vlink/820170100498BT?source=InktomiDVD
Needless to say, it’s a great deal. I found it while searching for current prices on b-games. The same site also has other DVD-play b-games for $20.
