I'm not sure if this thread belongs in lost or found media, because it's a little bit of a mix of both. Regardless, I've just recently made a discovery regarding lost Anime dubs from overseas.
As those of you who are familiar with Animax may know, they unfortunately very rarely ever distributed their dubs through home media. This has made trying to find a large majority of their dubbed content extremely difficult.
However, I've just discovered that some manufacturers made illegal DVD copies of some of their dubs. This archived listing for "Onegai My Melody" boasts that it has English audio for the series. The dub is better known as "My Melody's Magical Adventures", and you can find the article written about it here.
Unfortunately, I've been unable to find any DVDs featuring the English audio for sale. I wanted to make a post here to spread awareness, not only about Onegai My Melody, but for other lost Animax dubs that could possibly have these DVD copies available for sale.
Also worth noting: Some of the more obscure anime DVDs don't feature any English audio at all, unfortunately. This was the case for Spooky Kitaro 4 and 5. If you do start searching for these dubs, be sure to check the back of the DVD cases for the language options.
