Mystery Science Theater 3000 Collection: Volume 10 recalled?
I just read this on Satellite News:
Quote:
|
Several readers have written to us in the past few days saying that they can no longer find The Mystery Science Theater 3000 Collection: Volume 10 on store shelves. Some readers have been told that there indeed has been a recall of the set. So if you still haven't picked up a copy, you may want to do so immediately, if you can still find it.
|
Anyone have further details on this?

Thanks for the heads up. I had been dragging my feet on picking this up. Recalled or not, I got off my ass and picked up a copy after reading this.

I did the exact same thing. I was surprised to still find it in the stores, but it's disappearing from the online retailers.
BTW, Volumes 1 and 3 appear to be nearing extinction as well, due to the loss of the film rights.

Yes, apparently there is a rights issue with at least one title on Volume 10. Another reason I always get these sets right away!

It seems weird that it took nearly three months for someone to realize.

Not to derail the thread, but isn't Volume 11 due out in a couple of months? Shouldn't we have seen a title listing by now?

I was kind of stunned to see Godzilla vs Megalon on vol. 10; I assume that's the problem title (I can't imagine any giving a damn about Swamp Diamonds....)

Oddly enough, the Borders in my area just got two more copies in this week. I left it for a MSTie to pick up instead of selling it on eBay.

These are selling for $95+ on ebay now. Amazon.com marketplace has a seller with one for $150.
I just ordered one online for $53. I hope I can still get it. The order went through so we'll see. It looks good at this point. I don't want to say where I ordered since some might not of thought of it...and to keep the playing field level. Hee hee! Fans, keep looking. You too resellers! Good luck to all of us.
Vol. 11 is still good to go according to mst3k.com. 
Like others have said, this is the last time I put off buying these. I still need 6-9 and I'll be picking those up over the next 3 months or so.

Amen, brother. I took the opportunity during the last DDD 20% sale to pick up all the volumes I was missing. Roll on Volume 11!

I think in Feb I'm going to just buy all I don't yet have. It's rediculous to miss out on these.
I've checked my email about 2 dozen times waiting for a confirmation of the order or for shipping. Nothing yet. So..... *sells soul to Pitch* *joins the Martians to defeat Santa* *burns the Mexican Santa's butt with firecrackers*
This will make my Christmas if I can snag one of these for $50 instead of $100.
