Fright Night
A Nightmare on Elm Street
Teen Wolf
The Secret Of My Success-
Big
Dragnet
Sleepless in Seattle - Widescreen Edition

for $100 US. Is this a good deal? I was thinking of offering $75. I have never watched a movie on laserdisc, but have always been interested. Please provide you thoughts/suggestions. Thank you!

yes it is a decent deal as long as player works good. Westworld, Weird Science, The Goonies, Buck Rogers, Legend, Possibly Pale Rider, Explorers, Stand By Me, InnerSpace, Fright Night, A nightmare, Teen Wolf, are solid titles with Fright Night being the best I believe. That is a 20 dollar title alone depending on condition.

if you are interested and have the extra cash and the player is working fine then go for it.
that's less than i spent on another vintage video technology and i sold everything and make a few bucks.

so that's your worst issue, you don't like it then sell it and either break even or make a few bucks.
but then you were able to test a really cool vintage video system.

Thanks all. I offered to buy it, but asked if he and I could confirm its working operation before I hand over the money. So far, no response. Regardless, there's a laserdisc in my future. Will let you know if there's a happy ending.

Just to update, I finally did get the player and it came with even more movies than mentioned. Looking forward to checking it out.

In many ways your first buy is probably the most fun one because every title no matter what it is will seem great because you don't have any laserdiscs yet.
It is when you have done this a few dozen times that the novelty of bulk buys starts to wear off as you start to accumulate 20+ copies of the following titles:
Terminator 2, Aliens, Jurassic Park and Independence Day.

For the record, the player did come with Terminator 2, Aliens, and Jurassic Park. A lot of Michael J. Fox and Tom Cruise movies as well.

What about blade runner, had to come with a copy of blade runner.

I've boughten at least 300 discs out of 4 or 5 lots now and only recently came across a blade runner, I've found plenty of Jurrasic Parks though lol
