How Many Sets Did You Get In '05?


The topic is self-explanatory. How many TV-DVD sets did you purchase/receive in 2005? Also, how did it compare to previous years?

I'll be the first to answer. In 2005, I purchased/received a whopping 45 sets. By comparison, in 2004, I purchased/received 16 sets, and in 2003, i purchased/received 11 sets. The biggest reason for the surge was the purchasing of four new series on DVD (for me): three seasons of Monk, four seasons of 24, four volumes of Batman: The Animated Series, and five seasons of The West Wing.

Uh, this is a VERY revealing thread I never realized that this is what I bought in '05 (ordering online from 2 outlets made it easy to tally it up)

38 sets. In this case, I counted all of the Combat! packs as 1 set/series, and the same with the "Rifleman" sets.

The count includes 2 miniseries and 2 "megasets" (Dick Van Dyke complete set, and the Secret Agent set)

Included were 2 PAL R2 sets, "Rich Man, Poor Man Bk 1" and "Bionic Woman" from Amazon UK

When I get more time, I'll list the series (watching the NFL playoff game at present )

Jeff "I never thought I bought this many" W.



- Jeff Willis (Mainly a late 50's - mid-90's TV/DVD Collector)

"Combat! A Selmur Production"

"Two American scientists are lost in the swirling maze of past and future ages during the first experiments on America's greatest and most secret project...THE TIME TUNNEL! Tony Newman and Doug Phillips now tumble helplessly toward a new, fantastic adventure...somewhere along the infinite corridors of Time."

Roughly fifteen in 2005 (I have one that still on order), five in 2004, four in 2003, and two in 2002. There's one more that aired on PBS's "Great Performances"; it's both a CD/DVD.
