Wow, that is really awesome. Now only if it had "The Cell" that would be the BEST collection of LD's in one bulk lot.

From a collector's standpoint, that's an incredible lot. But that seller had probably the worst taste in movies I've ever seen.

Ironically, I was going to pass on it and didnt even know half the titles were there. I needed to chose quick because I was at work and was on a 4 minute break. I check ebay quite often but for quick shots. I saw 10 things I hate about you with 2 copies and saw the Iron Giant. Decided to take a chance and buy it. I didnt even know For the Love of the Game or South Park were in it until later. I almost took off work just to drive to get it right then and there because I was for sure it was going to be sold out from under me. This score is the reason that I collect discs, just for the off chance I might stumble upon something like this. I did some pricing and sure enough several of the discs are 200 or more, several more are 100 or more, a whole lot is from 25 to 100 dollars and there was only about 20 pieces of drek, but this drek is sealed and in beautiful shape. I might sell the things as a lot on ebay listed like 20 sealed, mint copies of whatever. I mean the copy of Blair Witch I got is mint perfect.

The copy I have is perfect. It even has the little kids pop out from time to time just to make sure it is still good. :)

I'm super jealous, even just by looking at the cover art online for Iron Giant. Very good haul! :)

Both hauls were fantastic buys.
It just goes to show that rare laserdisc titles can still be tracked down even in 2011!
I don't follow movies as much as music so didn't even know that James Bond movie was released on laserdisc - very impressive find especially at that price!

My guess is the USA release of the Video Nasty (banned in the U.K. in the eighties) "Cannibal Ferox." My reasoning is that is was a relatively late release, with a ton of extras (taken from the LDDB listing):

The publisher was Grindhouse Releasing - possibly their only release.

Side 2 is packed with trailers and promotional materials from around the world. Incudes a huge stills gallery of promo material, memorabillia etc.

The package comes complete with a 7" vinyl single of music from the soundtrack and a vomit bag decorated with Cannibal Ferox artwork.



It's also his icon here. :)

P.S. I guess I was wrong. :lol:

STAY AWESOME! :)

Hello bullruckle,

WOW!... :shock: :o :shock: :o

Well done that man!

I have this in my collection but will not tell you how much I paid for it though :cry:
I have another one reserved. . . . . still never mind eh!

It's always good to read that others have purchased some real gems.

All the best to you

Regards

What is your icon the cover to? It kinda looks like Thunderbirds, the British TV and movie series of the 60s.

STAY AWESOME! :)

Well its only the 8th of January but I've already got a contender for my find of the year!

Found this keeper yesterday for 750yen ($9.75us) :thumbup:
Has a small scratch on the right of the front cover, but I'll take it at that price. The discs are Mint.

Lol, Iron Giant is awesome, it is another someone is going to have to offer a bunch of cash to leave my hands as I will probably never see another copy. I think this is one of a kind stuff for me.
