Nickleninja is not a whole lot more than a few people that buy boxes of DVD's from an assortment of overstock operations and businesses that are folding. We don't really know what we're going to get from these purchases, so our site stock can sometimes be limited. This, however, can be used to your advantage. Because we only buy overstock, we have virtually no overhead and don't need to mark up the products ridiculously to ensure our attempts at not dying for another month. Plus, our initial pitch states we will not buy products that are beyond a certain "age," ensuring we stock at least some of the hottest titles out today. In some cases, this requirement is blatantly ignored by our suppliers and we end up with things that are placed nicely in the Discount Packages category. Have fun with that one.
Our statement of charity is that we give 5% to the needy or worthy. This is all explained in our 5% to charities page.
The ninja we so often refer to is, in fact, a mighty ninja. We happen to think ninjas are awesome and it's a good thing too since the nickle ninja would likely destroy us instead of just kicking our asses every time we insult his honor... this happens a lot somehow.
We'd like to make up some other excuses for the seemingly irrelevant ninja thing, but the fact is we know that online dvd sales is a seriously competetive field and you have to have some kind of edge to get people to remember you.
For this reason, we are tortured by the ninja and pressured into stupidly low, almost no profit dvd prices, and a paultry 5% charity donation system to try to convince you that buying dvd's from us is a noble thing to do.

Here's a quote from this site: "I heard that there was this ninja who was eating at a diner. And when some dude dropped a spoon the ninja killed the whole town. My friend Mark said that he saw a ninja totally uppercut some kid just because the kid opened a window."
