I actually asked the manager of the store I buy (most of) my used dvds from, and she said that you'd be amazed at how many people DO compulsively blind buy movies at a whim, and therefore sell the movies back for store credit. She has a copy of my wishlist in her office and since I am one of her best, and loyal, customers, when a movie is bought back by the store, she calls me and lets me know. I agree with you 100%, though. Some people need to exercise caution with blind buying dvds, or at the very least rent them first. But..................if they didnt so that, I wouldnt score such great deals! 👆

Not too long ago I offered things for sale here but no one was interested, so I sold dvd sets at moviestop. Today I bought Psycho (1998) and I'm expecting a part 2 with the same actor. Hard to believe she didn't see that hole but I saw hers.

Yeah, insider's deal, all the power to you. But damn. Brand new movie at full price, I might've blind-bought one or two. Blindbuys for me are usually $5 bin. Then if I don't like it, I'm only missing out on a couple bucks.

I dunno. I wouldn't want an "insiders edge", personally. It would take away from the thrill of the hunt. Besides, if I were to give the places I frequent MY wish list, they'd no doubt be buying them themselves and chucking them on eBay...

...and that's my job. 😂

$17 for that set is a decent deal. It's $24 new at DeepDiscount, though. Your real prize is that Jackass set at essentially 1/2 off. I'd love to have it. I don't buy a lot of new stuff, anyway. My speciality is OOP/Disco'd titles, so when I get deals, they're actual deals. Case in point, my $6 nWo DVD just sold for $40 on eBay. I actually had it twice before, sold it for that amount, but this one is all mine.

Rubber's Lover - $7

I got my Collector's Edition 2 disc of Narnia, with art cards/book marks/maps etc for only £13 brand new. If you look around you can get dvds cheaper than most places.

$25 US is average, really.

Don't you have all those episodes already with the first two volumes?

It's cheap here in the UK. It was going for £24.99 in the nearest shop near me when first released.

There's a couple of unedited and unaired episodes not on the other DVDs, as well as exclusive commentaries and a few Behind the Scenes deals. Some exclusive "American Dad" stuff, too. I only got it b/c it was cheap, and OOP.

Wow. If I knew about the unaired episodes, I would've picked it up myself. But I figured, I have all the volumes and that's probably a DVD for people that just want the best episodes.

It was issued by Tokyo Shock, same company that released a personal favorite in "Biozombie". They and Subversive Cinema get a lot of great J-Horror titles. I had just learned about the remake a week ago, then came across the DVD this afternoon. Had no idea Miike had directed it. I actually commented on it in the Horror forums.

I went with a friend of mine to a pawn shop so he could get his XBox out of hock, and I started browsing through their dvd selections, and I was quite surprised at the library there. I'm gonna go back this weekend when I get paid, and get some more stuff I saw. I used to think that pawn shops, at least in MY area, had shit dvds for sell. I was wrong. 🙂
