Yesasia used to be awesome until they raised there prices by ten or twenty dollars on every single dvd from japan.

Cdjapan has better prices but not free shipping i think.

I found out it takes forever with yesasia  no matter what grade of shipping you use.

There warehouse is in china or hongkong or something.

Whereas if you buy direct from a place in japan you can get a dvd by Ems in like 3-5 days.

Just way expensive for shipping.  Can't really complain though, laserdiscs from japan are much more expensive or even LP vinyl records because of how much they weigh.  Cd and Dvd are somewhat cheaper.

Typical Japan dvd's start out at around 40.00 US the lowest up to 90.00 the highest for a regular or special dvd with bonuses.  Boxsets are just absurdly expensive going for hundreds is not thousands of dollars for dvds.  Blu Rays are about 20 dollars more than dvd for regular blu ray.  Blu ray boxsets are like 200 dollars which is really too much money considering they usually don't have english subtitles and dubs and if they do they charge more for the boxset.

If you are talking regular hollywood american films then they should not be too expensive, but what ever you do never get into japan or china foreign films or anime because you will be poor from it,lol.
