Happy I found this channel. Very well spoken and a simple one take pretty much conversation about amazing topics. Keep it up

As a physical media collector since around 1990, it is the topic I watch the most about on KZfaq. I have a few favs like Heath@Cereal at Midnight, Jeff Rauseo, John@LetsTalk & MidLevelMedia. I just discovered your videos yesterday and I'm adding you to my list of favs. Earnest conversation, physical media topics I care about, and sincerity I very much appreciate. Kudos, keep up the great work.

One movie by itself $25 is my maximum and it would have to be something I really wanted to own.

Love finding new channels that are high quality all around. Thanks for the great content and please keep it coming!

When I knew MMPR: The Movie was going out of print, I kind of ignored it. Then about 6 months later, I got a real hankering to watch it, so I started looking on ebay or various sites, and it was like $75 or so. I then realized that I already had it, it came included in the Power Rangers Steelbook set as a bonus disk. I was happy to have found this out.

The Hitcher has a 4K limited/standard release from Second Sight coming in Sept 2024.

I paid $150 for a blu ray copy of bedazzeled ..... but thats the only 1 I paid that price for because I really enjoyed that movie growing up

Just spent $50 for an import copy of Hard Boiled as it’s out of print. Should have bought the Criterion version when I had the opportunity.

I've had that Tomcats foreverrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. Cool video and concept! Just found your channel, Cheers!

D.O.A. Is a movie I’ve always seen the poster for but never realized one of my favorite Hong Kong directors directed it. He directed a fair share of awesome Hong Kong action films!

Yes collectors have those OMG moments of overspending. I had a few when I was collecting Laser Discs, I found, Up The Creek, on laser disc and it hadn't had a DVD release yet, so I spent $110 on the laser disc.

Got Near Dark on eBay for “like new” for $30 on eBay. I’ll never get rid of it unless a 4k release comes out on a 4k transfer. Love the channel man. Keep the awesome content coming!!

I own that spike Lee vol 1. Since then that time I was hoping they would release a series of more volumes and it never did.

Wish you had movie nights, I would love to come over and see the rare movies.😊

Thanks for brining some light to these. Will have to try to keep an eye out for them. I ordered the Spike Lee set on eBay a year or two ago at least. Didn't read the description well enough and it just came with one of the films. Luckily realized it was on Disney Movie Club not much after and was pretty cheap $10 or less. I bought a couple copies and flipped one of them. Remember watching Tomcats back in the day. It's been a long time on that one. Have a Cruel Intentions DVD. Haven't watched that one in a long time either. Not familiar with Dangerous Beauty or Eight Days a Week. Got a good deal on Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers a year or two ago. Need to revisit. Didn't realize it was out of print. Have a Basketball Diaries DVD I think. Remember liking The Hitcher. Glad I stumbled upon your channel. Actually watched Part 2 first.

Oops now I know why my bluray copy of Tomcars for $4 never showed up!

New sub! Just found your channel and you are great! I found Tomcats and Basketball Diaries (sealed) at a thrift for cheap. Basketball Diaries is really hard to find on bluray or dvd. Also Cruel Intentions is still hard to find. I've been trying to find that movie on bluray for awhile now.

Glad this channel popped up in my KZfaq suggestions!

Eight Days A Week is on Warner Archive, I think.....and get set for Shout Factory to rerelease Mighty Morphin Power Rangers on 4K.

£31 is the most I have spent. Bloodsport media book 4k & blu ray. I don't have 4k, got it for the blu ray. Really enjoy your videos mate 👍

I found The Beach dvd at a Goodwill and I snagged it immediately. It's on my list of movies to find.

I had Basketball Diaries on VHS back in the day. Really good movie with Leo putting in an amazing performance.

When the video store Hastings was closing up all their locations, I stopped by mine and got a ton rare blu rays they had for rentals. Basketball Diaries, Scream 1.. I even had Stone Cold & Mr Nanny on dvd which are solid finds too.

Never knew Tomcats was uncommon because I used to consistently see it at various Dollarama stores throughout all of Canada for $2CAD.

I found Wing Commander in a local pawn shop for $3 along with one of those cool import crazy box sets of the Lover for $10... I luck out and find some gems in pawn shops

150.00 for Tomcats is absolutely ridiculous 😂 The most I ever paid for a OOP Bluray was the Anchor Bay Blu of Dawn of the Dead, I paid about 50 bucks

Solid video with some great info! I personally wouldn’t pay some of those crazy secondary market prices especially if it was a DVD or BD.

I have Fantastic Four (2015) on 4K I got it for 25 bucks and it's now $150 on eBay also I have Battle of the Five Armies in Blu-ray 3D the US version was very hard to find and I got it for $90 (I literally had to move heaven and earth to come up with the money)

I PAID 30.00 for the the first DVD release of Barfly 1987. Then finally it was released on bluray in a nice boxset. 20 to 30 used is the most for me used.

Most I've paid for a single film is $80. I purchased the VSU Beastmaster box set on eBay. Had to have all of them in the premium box. That being said I'll probably never watch Six String Samurai again.

I’m not sure I’d do it again any time soon but the most I’ve paid for a single release is £70 for the BFI Flipside release of Joanna after discovering the label and buying every release thus far except this little known gem. At the time it seemed a bit over indulgent but the film is such a delight and it know fills that hole on the shelf amongst all its friends and family … … plus it goes without saying if you’ve not seen any of the films on the label then go check them out as there are some incredible films and true unsung gems on the list.

I have a ton of those Spanish blu rays in my cart on eBay but haven’t made a purchase yet. The artwork looks well done but the back statistics look bootlegesque I think k I’ll be getting a few soon because there are no blu rays for some of those movies yet so I’ll be taking a chance.

Yeah never spent more then $25 for used movies. I rather hit up as many local stores, pawn shops, flea markets hell even garage sales to find those rare titles. I mean if i eventually run into it great but if not then i wont be losing sleep for it either. But to give you an example about a month ago i found Ray Harryhausen's 7th Voyage of Sinbad on bluray just winking at me at Amoeba Music. Its going for $100 right now on ebay but yeah I ceazed that moment in a heartbeat. A very unexpected pleasant surprise.

Love the content, thanks for the insight from your findings!

I set myself a strict set of rules when it comes to oop $50 or under is still viable if it's $60 and above it's a no go. I'll find the movie on another format or find a different region of the film.

Those Fox blu rays are definitely in a rough spot as far as possible future releases go.

great channel, I found that Hitcher on regular DVD yesterday at a vintage shop I frequent, going to go back tomorrow and pick it up if its still there, not sure if the basic DVD version is rare or not but want it anyway

Some nice pickups, just jumped back into collecting 4k and blu rays dropped off for a while as got side tracked buying bbq equipment 😂

Still makes me angry that MMPR: The Movie goes for as much as it does. Considering there's a 4K master and Disney owns the rights to Fox's library, it makes sense to release it on 4K or at the very least, re-release it on Blu-ray. What, does Disney all of a sudden hate money because they have so much?

Oh basketball diaries a very uplifting heartwarming movie. When your done watching it you will feel like you need to take a bath. Wish I had a blu ray copy honestly but I'm not ready to dish out 30 bucks for it.

Keri Russell and a sprinkler. Can't beat it.

Where’s the best place online to buy/sell Blu-ray’s and DVD’s?

Dallas has a bunch of movie trading companies. I call weekly for availability of 4ks lol.

I watched the premiere of the pilot episode for Power Rangers in 1993 before I went to a birthday party at a Burger King (or McDonald's?) that same day.

here’s a list of some of the OOP I have: 1. Black Xmas (2006) 2. Darkness Falls 3. The Hitcher (2007) 4. Peter Benchley’s Beast 5. Cruel Intentions

I paid $90 each for the blu-rays of David Lynch's Twin Peaks Fire Walk With Me and The Straight Story from Japan, way back in the early days of blu-ray before either had a release in any other country. That's the most I've ever paid for a single film.

New subscriber here, you seem like a cool fellow 'millennial' collector guy I could be friends with. 😁 Basketball Diaries had a great Korean BD release in 2016 from Kimchidvd, in a clear Scanavo case with a Fullslip and 24p booklet, got it for just $29 then. I don't have Tomcats though, didn't order it at the time somehow... There's another rarity that I do have, if you make more videos like this, Bedazzled with Brendan Fraser and amazing Elizabeth Hurley - discovered recently it's also around $150... 😂 The Beach was released on one of those kinda bootleg Blu-rays in Spain by a company called Resen. They have many such nowhere else in the world BDs, transfers are not great, but still better than DVD, they're usually HDTV scans or those copies that are used for streaming or sale as a digital copy. But at least they're on factory pressed discs, not BD-Rs like Chinese crap on eBay. Got a few films like that, Extreme Measures, Murder by Numbers, Murder at 1600, Addicted to Love (one of my All-time favorite comedies), Wag the Dog, etc. Was about to buy Phantoms ("Affleck was da bomb in it" 😂), but Shout Factory announced a UHD! Their True Lies from D-VHS is now the best version, after what Cameron done to it - I was waiting for the official release for 10 years, only to end up buying that bootleg available since 2014. 🤦

Most I ever paid for a OOP was Dogma I paid $120 for it on bluray and unfortunately a few weeks later I found it for $60, same almost happened with the movie Supercross on bluray I found it for $199 and I'm like I like it but I decided to wait and a few months later I found it for $67 so I'm glad I waited but the current most expensive bluray I have bought I have yet to received and that was Shelby Oaks by Chris Stuckman I paid $175 just to get it signed

Let me know if you find some custom artwork for 25th Hour and He Got Game. I own that double pack and was thinking about doing the same thing.

I recently paid $AU70 for a blu-ray copy of The Stuntman (1979) a remastered copy from Severin. Been looking for it for a long time as it's oop and going for $150 online - probably the most I've paid for an oop title... Cruel Intentions isn't hard to find in Australia - there are several copies on eBay Aus going for under $20 Also a couple of Australian copies of The Hitcher there for under $30

Love your channel. You have a new subscriber in me!

I dont have q Blu-ray player yet, but have been buying DVDs. Went to an estate sale that had over 300 DVDs and VHS. Bought around 40 movies. A lot from the 80s, some hard to find, complete sets, and a few obscure movies. Yard, garage, and estate sales are good places to look for movies.

Dude I'm getting great recommendations from you . I just bought tomcats on DVD for 6:15 on ebay. With taxes and shipping. Id snag it for 10. But I'm not going to pay a lot for a movie when it's on DVD. I started out with DVDs. I reserve Blu-rays and 4k's for movies that I'm going to take advantage of the sound of grade or all-time classics. I've actually become more fond of DVDs recently. Especially special editions.

This dude must be a BIG Brooke Davis fan! I'm partial to the raven-haired beauties myself.

I have a copy of 13th floor on Blu-ray. Matrix type movie. Its a test pressing Australian version. Not sure how rare but never seen it around here before.

Love these videos, your colleague the original fuzz has done similar to these 2 videos

Forget blu ray for a moment. I paid 75 bucks for a standard DVD of War of the Gargantuas/Rodan (which I had previously but sold). I still find it to be the best pq even over blu ray versions. Nice packaging as well.

I spend retail for a single movie, $35-$40 if it’s a limited steelbook release. If I miss a BD & it’s OOP & overpriced I just go for the DVD if I wanna see it.

Surprised 28 Days/Weeks Later didn't make this list. There seem to be a lot of mid-2000s Fox movies that are really, really hard to get on Blu-ray (The Ringer and My Super Ex-Girlfriend come to mind)

Luckily for me, for the bulk of the years that Blu-ray was available I was always in on the ground floor. Most of the titles I attained are movies that I wanted for me and not for value. However, there are literally only two titles I ponied up the dough for and they were both Airheads and Freaked. Both of them had fallen out of print and a seller in a cult movie Facebook group was selling them both at the same time. I was able to get that person to sell both of them to me for $60 shipped. For what they go for now, I definitely made a good deal. That being said, probably the most expensive single Blu-ray in my collection is Hellraiser: Deader. I was fortunate enough to buy that right before it went out of print from the long gone Fry’s department store for a whopping $5.

I got the cruel intentions, power Rangers, DOA, and the basketball diaries. I got the pitcher from umbrella entertainment recently.

I’ve paid $50 bucks several times for a more rare movie. I bought Twister on HD DVD for $50 a few months back. It was one of the last movies released on the format.

Some interesting movies. Bought Tomcats at Blockbuster back in the day on a lark and loved it. DOA is dumb fun. Just watched Eight Days A Week. Not bad.

I actually bought the Power Rangers movies before they went out of print. The first movie I bought it off Shout Factory and the sequel I bought it off Barnes and Noble. I believe I bought both movies last year when I saw that both were going out of print because of Fox is under Disney.

Texas chainsaw massacre the beginning is also a super expensive blu ray most new line cinema pre Warner bros are expensive

I bought the Power Rangers brand new off Amazon for 17 dollars back in 2022

Dude with these movies going out of print I'll just get the DVD. Unless the DVDs high dollar. And I'll probably just hope for a re-release. There was a DVD that I wanted that went completely out of print can't find anywhere so that's one of the few movies I've actually bought digitally. I'm getting some good recommendations from you. Because I miss the old comedies

They got power rangers at my Walmart…. Now I need to buy it

Movie trading company is called vintage stock here in kansas city mo.

I scored Dogma on bluray for 6.99 the other day at some small mom and pop used game store that also has a small section of movies for sale. 😁👍

Most I ever paid for a oop bluray was $20 for a oop dogma sealed

Cruel Intentions is all the over eBay uk. Dirt cheap too.

The rarest blu ray I have is Dutch (1991)

I found sling blade at the flea market and bundle it with 2 other blurays for 10 bucks . Guy didnt know sling blade is out of print

I try not to although I paid 50 for the twilight time Fright Night way before the 4k got announced and not a steelbook collector so glad I did. I always wanted Cat Ballou it only ever had a Twilight Time Release and I settled for the cheap DVD and it just went up for 4k preorders. It really is just a waiting game and I suggest movie collectors look for other formats my VHS still look great on my crt. I’m working on a similar video with way different movies. I understand the so bad it’s good but I hate the statement a movie is supposed to entertain if it does that then it can it really be bad? Great video brother 👍

Most I'd spend on a bluray is 50 bucks for a new copy, 20 for a used. For a dvd 20 bucks For a vhs 5 bucks

I missed out on the Power Rangers movie when Shout dropped it to like $14, it sold out before I could grab it. I will check out that DOA film, known of it but kept forgetting about it, never seen it but I like the Mortal Kombats and Roberts. I see the Dangerous Beauty DVD is cheap, I like the woman from Bravehear though not big on period pieces, if there's action might check it out.

I usually go to the Movie Trading Companies in Arlington and Hurst I feel like they have a good selection, I bought He Got Game for sale last week digitally for 5 bucks but I would love to have that double blu-Ray of He Got Game and 25th Hour, I love both of those movies

On a single disc blu rat no more then 30 after tax and delivery if ordered online, cause I'm not a idiot

I found a copy of cruel intentions for a buck in my local shop. Wow didnt know it costs that much

DOA is so good. You should check out the director’s Hong Kong movies like So Close or Righting Wrongs and also Yes Madam

I thought Cruel Intentions was easy to find in got this one sent by mistake (from the UK) and i got a different version so its legit just sitting in my collection

Dead Alive and John Tucker Must Die seem like rare blu-rays.

Wanted DOA on blu ray can't get in UK

I get all my blurays in CEX or I get the 2 for 20 euro deal in Golden Discs.

Crazy EBAY prices is not an indication of the value of anything, it is just random people thinking they are the owners of gold. It is like ticket scalpers, dont buy what they are trying to sell then it stops.

There are quite a few that I would love to get on blu. Ray that are next to impossible to find. However, I have been finding those ones on regular DVD n at least I can watch it at that point. I have resolved to a couple of bootlegs that companies have and I must say hey, look amazing, modern problems and 9 to 5 Both fox titles and as you said, I can never be assured that they will be realBoth fox titles, and as you said, I can never be assured that they will be re. Released.

EightvDays A Week is on Prime in HD. I know we want physical copies. But $50 on dvd when you can see it for free in HD is crazy! I may burn it to dvd with my recorder because I do remember liking the movie. But no way for $50

I think any film thats a raunchy comedy (By todays standards) or has a theme thats not PC in 2024 will sadly have a high chance of being hard to aquire on physical media going forward.

I think I'm seeing this video because I just bought that He got game and 25th hour double pack I paid 50 on ebay for a sealed copy

This is totally the reason I buy 2 of everything. I only bought one copy of Dogma bluray and I'm so mad at myself. Never again.

piece of advice. if your see a movie that been re-issued again. better GET THEM FAST. DON'T WAIT A YEAR OR TWO to want to get them. I made this mistake a few times when I lost an oppertunity to get 2 films I wanted get on blu ray real bad. Invasion USA My Science Project if you do miss out. it will be a long while for another distributer will pick up the license.

of the ones you showed, I have... D.O.A , Eight Days a Week,

I really like Michael Davis , his films are surprisingly sharply written with a lot of wit. They're better than the usual teen sex comedyd

JDF (The Green Ranger) dying, definitely helped MMPR go OOP a lot quicker I think.

Hey my guy I got one movie u forgot and it is going for 250 on eBay Airhead with Adam Sandler

Dude, I got power rangers at Walmart this year for 10 bucks. Gone now. This movie is so 90s. So bad it's good for sure . Never go turbo!

Nice video!

I think I have a copy of tomcats I do have the Hitcher

I got Power Rangers: The Movie from Shout Factory a few years back, still have the slip and everything for it. Is it worth a lot?
