Offer a couple slips and the collectors snap up 5,000 copies of a Z-grade horror movie in a short time. If this was released by KL with no slip, it would most likely have trouble reaching 400 units sold in its lifecycle.

Vinegar Syndrome titles sell so well because they’re basically risk free purchases. If you don’t like the film you’re guaranteed your money back and usually more by selling it.
