Post subject:  SF people - know any Japanese video stores that sell online?

so I'm looking for some fairly hard to find titles that are not out on DVD yet, and I don't want to buy shitty bootlegs (I actually already have a couple boots that I want to replace.) and Japanese VHS tapes are often very hard to find.

I've tried every Japanese site that I know to look on - amazon.co.jp, cdjapan, etc. I even tried YJA and no such luck.

I thought maybe Japantown might have something to offer? I'll try anything.

thanks

TRy contacting Rick aka our very own Blackshyr (sp? as usual) - he specialises in selling Japanese and Asian movies from his store on Sunset Blvd. He knows his shit, and maybe able to offer some help.

those guys are actually very close friends of mine. hung out with them last night.

but they unforutnately don't have what I'm looking for. :(

thanks for the other suggestions guys, I'll have to check them out

if they would just put the series out on DVD already, I'd have no problem finding it. but because it's still VHS only...
