Weird, usually that works. And I can see it just fine.

Let's see if I can get it fixed.

I can see it now. Nice haul!

Is that the original Highlander 2 release with all the special features?

[bkhage01]

Picked up these DVDs for $1 apiece:
-Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law Season 1
-Sealab 2021: Season 2
-Robot Chicken: Seasons 1 and 2
-Family Guy Vol. 10

As usual, they didn't have much in the way of BDs. Plus they want like $8.50 for a single BD At least the other pawn shop near me got with the times and dropped BD prices to $3 each and DVDs to $.75. Unfortunately they almost never have anything of note

Weekend haul

[Dick Deckard]

I wish I had a decent pawn shop around me. Mine just sell junky electronics and tools and crappy stuff like that. They have video games but I don't console game anymore. Oh well.

Even if you do find one, selection may be very underwhelming. At least around here, pawn shops are offering lower and lower amounts as time goes on. I remember a couple of years ago they were offering as much as three dollars each and could get a steady incoming of movies. Now they're only offering around one dollar per movie (possibly more for hot titles). And of the ones they buy, the more desirable ones (Disney/Star Wars/newer releases/tv sets) are going straight to ebay and craigslist after the three week background hold clears. So finding diamonds in the rough totally depends on the area and the owners/staff.

Picked up a sealed Oliver & Company/The Fox and The Hound 1 & 2 Blu-ray Combo Pack for $4 the other day.

[strumdogg]

I'd given up selling certain titles on Craigslist, so I went to my local trade-in store (an independent store that deals in any/all media...they even have film reels).

So, I traded these:




for these:





PS: The code still worked for TLE!

Found a 8-disc Blu-ray case at my Pawn Shop tonight that had...

X-Men
X2
X-Men: The Last Stand
X-Men Origins: Wolverine
X-Men First Class
The Wolverine (Extended Cut)
X-Men Days of Future Past

It had $5.99 on it, he let me have it for $5.00!

At a thirft shop, I scored As Above, So Below with slipcover for $2. I also got at the same place, My Morning Totoro on DVD with slipcover for $2.

Nice find with Into The Storm.

I was an extra on that for a few days. Lots of fun, and an enjoyable movie. I can actually see myself for maybe 2 seconds. Most times as an extra, you usually never see yourself.

Fingers crossed this March that I see myself in Batman vs Superman. I did a few days on that as well. One of the coolest moments of my life.

Sadly, our Governor in Michigan has done away with movies being filmed here. It was a good run of 5 years while it lasted.

I love that slip. They took the effort to add the texture.


Oh, and that matte finish...

Best BD haul in a while:
Shrek 3D 4-movie pack (I think from Samsung) - 5.99
Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs -- DVD/BD - 2.99

Not dirt cheap, but also got:
Megamind 3D (Samsung) - 3.99
Wall-E - 4.99
Thor 3D - 4.99
Captain America: the First Avenger 3D - 4.99

This guy really took care of his movies they were all mint.

Great haul, I haven't found anything of not at my pawn shops in a while other than one which did away with their selection of movies

I that Shrek 4 pack and Megamind was a part of the Samsung 3d starter pack which included two pair glasses and 3d films of the Shrek films and Megamind 3d. Best Buy had them clearance out years ago, would be able to sell the glasses alone for enough to make the 3d films free... good times

No good BDs were out today, but did pick up the 3 movie collection Jaws 2/Jaws 3/Jaws: The Revenge on DVD for $.50. Good deal in my book seeing as none of them has seen the light of day on BD.
