I realize most folks here have Star Wars on DVD....I do myself as a matter of fact. But for collectable purposes.......I cannot find ANYONE selling the last Movie, Pt 3 on VHS.

This is stupid........how can folks finish their "collections"??? I also have parts 4,5,6,1,&2 on VHS........this set will be incomplete without the latest move to add to it.

Does anyone know of any place to get this last movie on VHS tape?

Oh yeah, this again. I have spoken to many people on forums about this, you should all work together and complain to George Lucas.

Oh wait, fans will not approve complaints.. pirate

In Finland there are plenty of DVD and VHS copies... Just saw a guy buying one today.

Well I guess GL assumes everyone here in the USA no longer uses VHS......I rearely watch them anymore, but that is not my point. This is for "collection" purposes.

Maybe in a couple weeks those VHS tape you talk about overseas will start showing up on EBAY.........I hope so, that may be the only way to solve this problem.

VHS are more expensive to produce, and they would barely sell, it would just be a waste.

VHSs cost only slightly more pennies to produce than DVDs. It's the economies of scale that have shrank for vhss. Where once there used to be many mfgrs of vhs, now there are fewer so they can ask for more money.

I understand the film WOULDN'T be released on VHS.
Besides collecting purposes, who gives a crap for VHS? That picture look so muddy to me now, after years of DVD and Laserdisc.
Now - I have a mint copy of the Star Wars Trilogy Special Edition, on Laserdisc! Worth hundreds of dollars, I'm told. More than when I bought it fresh from the store at Xmas 1997.

Actually Several people have said they found VHS tapes.

BUY. A. DVD. PLAYER.

and donate your vhs collection to the poor.
really, you can afford a computer, you can afford internet access,
you have the time to come here and complain about something so
trivial and useless...just go out, spend the cash, and get with the times
