Walmart.com gots the set up for Preorder now.
Hey guys I updated the first page… just thought you should know.
Well, I just got an e-mail back from Righstuf. They've changed my current order to the lowered price!
http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=9715206 hopefully it's a bit cheaper in store. TV-14? Nice.
I'm probably going for Best Buy due my folks Reward Zone card. Either we'll have coupons I can use, or it'll go towards a future purchase.
Sweet. Bought the DVD set and that Jolly Rogers of OP shirt for $50.
That's not bad. Now I have to play the waiting game, and it's a game I suck at.
I'm also probley will be planning to pick it up at Wal-Mart as well. Since I have to pick up DBZ Season 5 at there as well on the same day. I'm pretty much excited to get the One Piece set.
probably ask for it for my birthday, which is likely going to happen, I guess.
I'll be pre-ordering closer to the date. Would rather remember what I put on my credit card and know when it is going ot be getting charged than have some random day come and I get DBZ season 5 and One Pice First Voyage in the mail. Then be like "oh Shit" hopefully my credit card bill needed to just be paid and dind't know I had anything on.
Plus just bought some stuff, so if I wait a month to preorder doesn't seem like I spent as much money.
Well, I just preordered my Season One DVD. Right Stuf has a sale until the 13th on all FUNimation DVDs for 40% off. With the coupon code, OP Season One is only $30.00.
Hopefully I'll have the DVD come in early, and I'll post some pics of the packaging and some screencaps for you guys once I get it in.

Great news for Australian One Piece fans!
Coming Soon! Pre-Order Now - Available Wednesday, 11 June 2008
Damn, I wonder when the first Set will get here then =/ I might just import the first set.
I'll most likely pre-order it from Amazon.
My brother and I've been getting a lot of stuff off there lately.
So yeah, I just got an e-mail from Rightstuf about my pre-order.
Apparently the set is already "On Order From Manufacturer"…even though its still a pre-order. (This means its backordered?)
So I assume this means that the DVD is selling well then?
Hopes for Funimation to sell the set at ACEN
It must be selling like Hot cakes then. Since we're are like almost near release time with only month and a half away.

I apologize I don't think I've ordered something that's been backordered before. . . couldn't that just mean that because the official release is still a month and a half away that they're ALL on order from the manufacturer?
Not that I'm trying to be pessimistic - I'm just trying to get some context. If it's on backorder already this is GREAT news!
Well the set is listed in their "Last Week's Top DVDs" list at number 4.

Now THAT'S some good news!
Indeed that is great news. ^_^
Badabing badabang badaboom! It's the same positon it held last week. That means it's been doing well for a while. Even greater news.
Glad to hear, as rightsurf is one of the premiere anime sellers.

Not to burst your bubble or anything but I pre ordered it basically the DAY it came on that site and I've been getting the same email about once a week. They are just sending it out so you aren't sitting there wondering why it hasn't arrived yet… which is, because it's not out yet.
However, #4 on RightStuf is good news indeed. It's like 14000 on amazon =P

I'm very well aware of that. I'm just curious as to why it says,"Backordered" for the status instead of,"Pre-Order".
Meh, its all good. Im going to have to pre-order mine as well.

That's weird. I ordered mine a few days ago, and I the only emails I got were the ones saying they received the order and that it'd ship when the release date nears.
I think he's saying he got an email saying his order is on back-order.

Rightstuf periodically send you an e-mail to let you know they are trying to get hold of stock, although why they do it for pre-orders I'll never know. I'm sick of getting e-mails from them, I do know it's not in stock yet thank you very much.
That's weird, I've only gotten the two emails from when I ordered.
Well guys, the weekly bestsellers list on rightstuf has been changed, and it looks like "One Piece" is now number #1. What else could you expect? Let's hope this good fortune isn't just because of the 40% off sale.
HELL YEAH BABY!!!
I can't believe this. Is One Piece ACTUALLY popular in America??

That's awesome news! Anyway, thanks for the information firecrouch!

It's still taking a solid $30 out of our pockets. People usually have a sincere desire for something if they're willing to spend $30. Well, at least the One Piece fan with no steady source of income.
HELL YEAH BABY!!!

It's getting there. Don't forget how popular Shonen Jump is, so alot of people at least know what One Piece is. That certainly helps.
I'm seriously getting steamed up on how many people I've seen who won't bother buying the set. I've seen it here, I've seen it on Toon Zone. I haven't seen it elsewhere, but if other boards are talking about it, it'll pop up there as well, I imagine. I just can't understand what they can't understand.
OP + DVD + $ = Funi more inclined to keep the series going X CN being more inclined to put it back on the air X Toei more inclined to not take the rights away
If folks really like the show and want to see it continue in the US, whether it's the dub or the legal original, why can't they support the company bending over backwards to provide the fans with the show they want? Why can't they show their support in the one way and at the one time it really counts?
'Cause this is the world. No matter what, people are never that pure hearted.
16 characters of truth.
Doesn't make it any less annoying that people like that would easily let the thing fail here. The majority of fans likely won't let that happen, but those few freeloaders aren't helping matters.
Im getting it. And so does alot of other people. It is the top most selled Dvds in Rightstuff. :)

I noticed.
I just saying there's no telling how many need to be sold before CN will take the bait. It's the top selling this week, but how many copies that actually is, there's no telling.
Don't worry Button Pusher. I'm going to buy them too :D
Especially since they are now cheaper and coming out more frequently then I had initially anticipated.
And I love the Kuro arch. So I can't wait to have that one especially.

Right now, I doubt CN cares about anything but the gayness of Ben 10. Even Naruto is getting the short end of the stick.
Well, if I do find someone saying they won't get the DVD's, I swear I'll utilize the greatest weapon the Internet has alloted me:
WORDS.
That'll show 'em.
Why not just make a thread asking who is buying the Dvds or not.
Eh? I can do that? It wouldn't just get a link back to here and be locked?
I just realized, the side of the cover says discs 1 & 2, obviously implying that they're the first two discs for the first season. That gave me a thought that maybe FUNi will do something like what Viz did with the Dragonball manga and have people send in sheets proving that they bought all the sets to one season and in return they'll send a box for them to keep it in.
Either that or FUNi will do the approach they did with Dragonball Z and YuYu Hakusho and release the boxes, but with the set forcing anyone who has the sets for a season but wants the box to buy the entire season again.
Why not just make a thread asking who is buying the Dvds or not.
Sounds like a plan.
So I guess this is where we say whether or not we buy them.
Hopefully one of my family members will be smart enough to actually buy me this for my birthday (pre-order of course) instead of the usual gift cards. If not, I will unleash the wrath of hell upon them. I am so sick of fucking gift cards.
I just made a thread for it. :)
I saw that. I hope you got a staff member's permission to post that poll.
…....... ......... what? When did that happen? And how do I do that?
