Recently bought this on eBay, search eBay here. It's all good, amazing animé except for Howl's Moving Castle which has poor audio and video and inappropriate English subtitles, official release for new English version in the UK is 30th September. Only one DVD has English audio, the rest have English subtitles and are of good quality but not as good as the Disney and Buena Vista releases coming out. Two of the DVDs stop due to scratching. But it's been great to see all this material from Studio Ghilbi, I think the offer on eBay is OK, good value for 20 DVDs, even though 1 is a 'bit of a dud' and 2 skip or stop. Postage is expensive but efficient, it was wrapped securely and contained a softoy Totoro, it took no time at all from China to Birmingham, and I could track it online. The seller I bought from has loads of positive feedback, I go with that usually. I don't know whether this is pirated, the 'bonus' DVD of Howl's Moving Castle is embarrassing, the English subtitles containing a totally parallel universe conversation, over using the four letter word for a while then moving onto teenage chat up, it really doesn't work with the image, but the video and audio quality is bad, think it might be taken with a camera in a screening.
