I own the Criterion but I may pop for one of these as well. Would like to see more of these kind of picks from Nova in future.

why, whyyyyyyy not
bitter sweet life
the new world
the good, the bad, the weird
the yellow sea
man from nowhere
a company man
the chaser
and a lot more :(

Half of these are already within the vein of what you want; rare Korean discs that hold their value in the collector's market. Also Bittersweet has already had a remaster and a re-release of that remaster by Nova.. shouldn't be hard to find.

you think it'll still be around for the holiday sale?
i'm wondering if i want to wait so i can get it cheaper too but don't want to risk it selling out.
 
I doubt Nova will put this up for 50% xmas sale just 6 months after its release. The cost of this is high - slip + steelbook + OST. Is it really necessary to have steelbook for this release? And does anyone care about OST? Without these, the price could have been brought down to $30. In comparison, there's an extra BD of bonus features from Criterion.

Finally got this at 50% off after more than a year wait. Just couldn't bring myself to pay above $30 for it. I don't care much about the steelbook. All choices were available. I went for Fullslip A as the embossed blood red characters are great.

Also copped Taipei Story at 50% off. Luckily cuz within minutes it was sold out.

I read about the winter sale but when I access the site everything is at full price?
