I would recommend trying to get the footage cheaper than $500 ^_^ I'm sure there's someone out there that has it and could sell it to you used or something maybe... You say the series is fansubbed, the fansubbers must have gotten ahold of the series somewhere, and I doubt that they paid 500 bucks for it all. Heck, maybe you could see if the fansubbers would let you have their copies cheap.

Although they may be hard to find, you could always get the RAWs (the footage of the series the fansubbers use) of the series you are looking for in all of it's un-subbed glory. But like I said, it will probably be a lot harder then finding the fansubbed versions, but on the plus side it would be free. :shock: <- After looking for hours for raw files....

Psyche scars are deeply sown.
But worry not, I can defend,
Always Me and my MAC10."

Try these techniques. I've gotten success with them before:

1)Beg the fansubbers for SVHS or so copies of raws
2)Post on the MLs for local anime clubs. Someone usually goes and has a ton of import discs.
3)Check animejungle.com for used copies.
4)repeat using rinkya.com (a courier service for the yahoo japan auctions - the ones that don't ship overseas)

Usually you can save quite a bit with these methods, especially number four if the fates are with you - I got an unopened Deluxe LD box set of Memories for $35 before fees and shipping that way (the box was tagged ¥14,800 or about $120 and VERY out of print)...

Good luck!
