Actually I've bought ALOT of DVD's because they were going OOP. All the Criterions from SOTL throught the Tati's, A bunch of Image-Universal titles that I thought might be decent. Actually had Swamp Thing (that came from formerly collecting comics). I have been re-thinking this lately...

I don't know for sure. You could check half.com. With the exception of Criterions and a few select others, OOP versions of films do not tend to hold their value. They will only if there is something unique in the old release. For example Little Shop of Horrors has that alternate ending that...

Dave. why don't you do the roundup at DVDTalk? It is the most bargain-conscious of any of the DVD forums I've visited. (ie. there are alot of us cheap bastards there).

I want the entire series, but I'm not a HUGE fan of "special packaging". For the most part, it just takes up extra space and with over 1300 DVD's, I need to economize space. It seems that DVD has gotten so popular, almost all "special projects" end up being taken over and distributed en...

See DVD TAlk Bargains forum. There is a thread on STL that tells you how to sign up. www.dvdtalk.com/stl

Actually with some box sets you can make money. But with new releases (like K-19) above, you will be lucky to get 9.99 for an opened disc. Prices are often $5-$8 less for an opened disc than a brand new one. Look at Monsers, INC. They are only getting between $11-$12 for a SEALED copy. It used...

More than likeley DVD Soon or Amazon.ca will have the best price. With Amazon.ca, there a lot of 10 off 50 (ca) coupons. http://www.dvdtalk.com/forum/showthr...hreadid=248511

I think it was around 12 or 13 US at amazon.ca

David - do they scan the Demo disc or just give it to you at purchase?

Use the coupons found in DVD Talk's Amazon.ca thread to save an extra $10 CND. Not just for 1st time users!

Wanted 3 copies, so I was gonna do the Wal-Mart PM at 12:15 am. I pass by a TRU on the way home, so I stopped to pick up a couple of more ads, just in case. Well, I decided to pre-order it and was able to pre-order all three copies. Stopped by TRU on the way to work. Noticed lines of 30 deep...

I have contacted friends and family in other cities: It is NOT in the New York Daily News (thanks for looking, Stacey), Houston Chronicle (thanks Bro!), or the Washington Post (sorry to "waste your time", Ed! ). I just go the ad in the Houston Chronicle. Maybe it's not in every region of a...

Since reading this thread and listening to the free culture speech, I have reached this conclusion about how I believe this should be worked out. 1) The owner of a copywright on a book or film would have unlimited rights for the ORIGINAL version of his work as long as he kept the work...

The good thing about this is when we PM at Best Buy, the 10% of the difference will be even greater. Otherwise, I'm staying away.
