Slipcover collectors: Don't you get tired of looking?

[88Saleen5.0]

I love slips.. I love the library feel it gives the collection.. Oddly, if I have the slip, I feel like I have the movie already since the discs can generally get picked up for $10 or so on Ebay or new on BF. I would like to have an all slipcover film collection (all titles with a slip).

Slips make movies feel like the golden days of home video. Plus they can have awesome artwork and look better on shelves.

I love slips, but I've gotten out of the game of trying to get them and worry about them as much as I use to. For my Kino and Scream Factory 4Ks, I don't even keep the slips anymore because I think Kino looks better without them and Scream Factory chooses what they give a slip to these days with their 4Ks and I hate the look of slip, slip, no slip, slip, no slip ... I'm lame like that. When it comes to Vinegar Syndrome and Partner labels, the slip is a must. As for my just regular across the board 4Ks, I try to ALWAYS get the slip and as of now, everything has a slip. I do think it makes it look better, but I don't know. I've spent so much money on just slips that it's pretty ridiculous, but now with my collection shrinking, I hope to not spend money on slips and if I do, let it only be a couple of bucks.

I know what you mean.. I try to get the film w/ slip when they are released but the rate they're pumping out 4K's, I couldn't keep up and gave up. What ever happened to releasing just a few 4K's a month? Some slip sellers will sell them cheap when they're new releases. I've bought a few that way.
Some sellers will buy the whole movie wholesale when new and sell every component separately (the slip, disc w/ insert only, the digital download, the case). When it came to Scream factory, I used to buy two copies.. I would wait a year or more and sell the extra copy to offset the cost or provide partial discount of the first copy. This was working until Scream factory did themselves a dis-service though when they decided to go 4K with many of their blu-ray titles so quickly. I stopped buying from them for a while and will never buy a blu-ray title from Scream factory ever again because they might pump out the 4K version the following year or two. They made it very difficult to sell the second copy of blu-rays that I had.
