Post subject:  Good covers but bad discs

Everyone has a box of good discs with lousy covers in their collection. But less common is having some excellent LD covers wasted on useless discs. For example, my "Fargo" looks new but the disc has stage-three laser rot. Someone might be looking for that cover to upgrade their collection for the price of shipping or a mutually acceptable swap.

Feel free to list your "covers in search of a good home" here.

Here are ours:


"Fargo" Deluxe Widescreen (800 638 693-1)
"Lost Highway" Widescreen (ID3946PG)
"Under Seige 2" (13665)
"The Survivors" (VLD3382)
"Striptease" (84976)

I've seen the various stages described well somewhere, but I don't recall where that was. A screen grab might show the most extreme cases, but mild cases can be just as annoying, with little flecks and flashes going off every other second, and a still photo won't illustrate the problem.

I'm sure someone here could post some brief clips of what we're talking about ....

:roll:
