<p>I am looking to add the complete set of Wolf's Rain to my anime collection, however after shopping around on E-Bay I see the following:</p>

<p><a href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/like/172189579429?lpid=82&amp;chn=ps&amp;ul_noapp=true" rel="nofollow">Wolf's Rain for over $300</a></p>

<p>This is a pretty common price-point for Wolf's Rain, I constantly see that this series is starting at over $300. Why is this? From what I understand Wolf's Rain was never really a huge hit. So why does it cost so much to obtain a legitimate copy?</p>

@ton.yeung Wow that's crazy. Wolf's Rain is one of my all-time favorites. I thought there were some cool concepts, and am surprised it wasn't extremely popular. I just let a used copy slip away for $55... Should've nabbed it.

@ton.yeung Yeah but I don't think it's like Cowboy Bebop where you can walk into BestBuy 15 years later and see brand new copies on the shelves.
