Thanks for the heads up, placed an order for both, let's see how that goes, they're already hard to find, at least at reasonable prices.

Any chance for Holy Mountain to appear in future sales? Amazon always list it for £18, which is a bit steep compared to what i'm used to.

I asked for that before the last sale and no dice.

I have a lot MoC's in my collection, but when Michael was being sold for less than £10, i was always broke or other titles had priority.
It's a pity i wasn't buying many DVDs back in 2005...

Abhijan is definitely one worth seeking out; its one of my very favourite Rays, and a most pleasant surprise, given my expectations.

I already have Abhijan, i was just mentioning that is extremely hard to find.

I can't speak for future sales, but it's been included in past ones. I got it in the March sale for £10.

And yet no Micheal or Abhijan. Maybe they are all out, drat.

Nightmare Alley has been on my to-buy list for a long time, I guess it's now or never.

Another 2 buys, not mainly because of the films itself, but because of the producer of the whole product.

Well, I guess I just ordered GANDAHAR!

Lubitsch in Berlin going out-of-print.

If true, this is a sad thing.

Unless it's a case of rights (or that they had a very small initial pressing) or if it's a mistake, it seems like it should have been a better seller if they sold out within under a year.

If it is true for whatever reason, I plead that everyone buy it since the films are of such high quality (especially Die Puppe). Plus you get to listen to Nick's dad play the concertina (worth the price of admission alone).

I really do hope this is an error as I was hoping that they'd be able to get masters/ rights for an other Germany set.

It surely must be an error, if it was rights Nick probably would have told us as soon as he knew, as he's done in the past. Nick also said they currently do the smallest pressing they can for their titles, and Tabu and things are only just getting another pressing now, I find it hard to believe the Lubitsch boxset has been such a big seller it's sold out faster than most other MoCs? But then again, Nick, Craig and Kevin are being silent... so maybe it really has gone oop?

Maybe it's just that a decision has been taken that it won't be re-pressed in the future because sales were not good enough, and so it's technically OOP. It's a shame if that's so because it's a brilliant box set.

As said in another thread, Lubitsch box is NOT out of print... I still panicked and bought a copy....

The MoC BD of CITY GIRL is *not* going OOP. No idea why that site says it is. It's out on DVD in April though.

I know it's been mentioned that Les Maîtres du temps has not sold well, but is it still officially in print for the time being?

Mikio Naruse Collection Volume 1 is out of print, due to the riot fire destroying the remaining stock...

That is such a shame.

Naruse boxset was my first MoC buy and what a great set it is. You could get it directly from Eureka for as low as £13 at some point plus BFI box for £8 off zavvi just a couple of weeks ago...

I wonder how many other titles will also go OOP - Les Maitres du Temps, Toni and a bunch of others were not selling well apparently

According to a Eureka tweet, you can now add Toni to this list

thanks for the heads up about Toni. I just ordered it. I'm still a few months away from getting my region-free, but I was going to make this one of my first purchases
