Dear Matt,
Distance (2001, Hirokazu Kore-eda) is available from Japan (Engl. subs,
NTSC but RC 2):
http://www.yesasia.com/global/distance-japan-version-english-subtitles/1001838281-0-0-0-en/info.html
The Japanese version of Its Only Talk (2005, Ryuichi Hiroki) has no subs
(see Yesasia).
Best
Thanks Peter.

Dear CW,
Has anybody been able to order DVDs from the Warner Archive without paying tax?
I have been trying to order a DVD from them for months, but the order form
does not allow me to tell them I am tax exempt. I sent them an e-mail to ask
them how I could order from them and include a tax
Hi Sabra,
MEF has a couple of films that might fit what you're looking for:

Eileen,
They are not really set up for institutional ordering and their prices are
cheap. Also the regularly have 25% off sales.
I would just eat the tax, but if you want I will check with a friend of mine
there.

I think your best option is to find a different place to purchase these items.
Movies Unlimited carries a good chunk them, as does Midwest Tapes and of course
Amazon. I believe these companies are a little slow in getting the latest WB

We have been having just this problem with an order. They want us to pay tax,
saying that because they are producing on demand we are not tax exempt, or that
they have to charge tax. The matter has gone to the university lawyers, where I
imagine it will sit indefinitely. I decided to revendor
Even for private universities the tax issue can be a problem. You might also
consider asking your regular video vendor to place the order on your behalf,
though I'm not sure whether the resulting handling fee ultimately will be
cheaper than purchasing the DVDs from Amazon. We've done that on
Hi
In my experience, studio and network sites (such as Warners, HBO, etc.)
are little more than dumb, automated fulfillment machines. Unlikely
you're gonna get past the tax exempt issue.
Re amazon and paying more...may be they charge a bit more, but you always
need to factor in the

Why do you not go through some one like Action media. Explain the situation to
them, pay them with a PO and have them just bundle the tax into the price they
quote you. You are not paying TAX then you are merely paying a purchaser the
cost of the item. That way you do not have to wait until

This is very unfortunate. The WB archive is doing what all movie buffs wish
all studios would, make available a huge number of rare often important
films. The only way they can do this is a bare bones operation in terms of
both the DVD ( not extras DVD-R for now) and selling ONLY directly and
Is it legal for them to insist on collecting sales tax from tax exempt buyers?
I would think not but the firms that have been mentioned here are pretty big
must be getting their financial advice before deciding policy.
Since all of Music Hunter's clients are tax exempt institutions, we honor
As far as I know it is an all automated system geared towards consumers. I
doubt you can require a company to sell anything to a particular person or

wholesalers and I am pretty sure they limit quantities during the 25%

I am confused. WB is the direct seller, you could buy from them but only if
you purchase at full price and pay upfront. It probably does not work for
such a large company, but I believe some of the smaller companies focused
most directly on libraries carry the titles.
Obviously WB discourages

Alex, you nailed it!! I think I might have heard the live broadcast also

visuals on the same issue -- I don't know, maybe the audio is so

My guess is they have a complex legal structure and WB home video is a
separate legal entity and has no physical presence in New York. I think they
probably do not charge tax anywhere outside of CA, but that you need to
check the website ordering system as opposed to asking strange as that may
