Bought the 4K Blu-ray box set of my favorite anime, then found out it was region locked
Last month I dropped $180 on the collector's edition of a 90s mecha series I watched as a kid, thinking it would be the definitive version. Turns out the discs are coded for Region B only, and my player here in Portland is Region A, so it just spits them out. I checked the listing again and the region info was buried in the fine print under a dozen screenshots. Anyone else get burned by region locks on imports, or did I just miss the obvious warning that was staring at me?

Did your player give you any kind of error message, or did it just sit there like a brick? My buddy ordered a UK steelbook of some Gundam thing and it did the exact same thing to him, turns out he just needed a cheap region free player off Amazon. Sucks about the fine print though, they really do hide that stuff on purpose.
