They are the exact same discs.

If I'm not mistaken (and someone please correct me if I'm wrong), but BCI/Eclipse just re-released all the Adness discs into those themed sets.

I remember these sets coming out when the single releases went OOP.

So they are the exact same discs but with slimline case packaging.

They are fast indeed .... I ordered Sunday and they shipped on Monday. (UPS, and it arrived on Wednesday!)

Thank you! The one that's cheaper and saves shelf space gets my vote, so Amazon Marketplace it is.

Re: movies4wholesale.com - DVDs $1 to $3

The Good
Three days later and my very well packaged order has already arrived in excellent condition.

The Bad
"Martin" is NOT the George A. Romero version. Yes, I know the UPC number and the pic clearly stated that. Wishful thinking.

The Ugly
All six of the Dark Sky DVDs in my order have the UPC slashed ...badly.

Re: movies4wholesale.com - DVDs $1 to $3

I ordered 21 DVDs on Monday and they arrived today. They were well packaged, but 2 of them had floating discs.

One floater was Lemony Snicket DVD 1 and it's really scratched up. It's a non-standard 2 DVD case, so I don't know how well DVD 1 stays in place... anyone else get a Lemony Snicket that was floating?

Re: movies4wholesale.com - DVDs $1 to $3

Yeah I made the mistake of ordering two used from them....
One had stickers all over & marker on the disc, yuck....
The other one had a few scratches & it was a little dirty....
The new ones were great tho....

Re: movies4wholesale.com - DVDs $1 to $3

Ordered Tuesday night, came today (Friday) via UPS. I did think that Werewolves on Wheels had a smashed case before I realized it was a 'bad UPC slash' and I just transferred it to a new case. College Girl Murders had no slash.

1 x Karate Bearfighter - Kenka Karate Kyokushin Buraiken (PID0240201) $3.00
1 x College Girl Murders (PID0277569) $3.00
1 x Ninja Wars (PID0263622) $3.00
1 x Swords of Vengeance - Fall of Ako Castle (PID0240719) $4.00
1 x Werewolves on Wheels (PID0277655) $4.00
1 x Legend of the Eight Samurai (PID0240265) $3.00
1 x Shogun's Shadow (PID0240645) $3.00
1 x Killing Machine - Shorinji Kenpo (PID0263600) $4.00
1 x Executioner/The Executioner II: Karate Inferno (PID0239823) $3.00
1 x G.I. Samurai (PID0239895) $3.00
1 x He Walked by Night (PID0276425) $3.00

They seem to be a class operation, and were probably not the ones to slash the UPC codes on the Dark Sky titles.

1 x Matthew Blackheart: Monster Smasher (PID0270806) $3.00
1 x UFO HUNTERS-SEASON 1 (DVD/4 DISC) (PID0333027) $4.00

I would like to see this as well, though I only ordered 1 Dark Sky title (Eaten Alive)

For those of you who ordered titles that had slashed UPC's, did you order them new?

Re: movies4wholesale.com - DVDs $1 to $3

Did an order Wednesday and it arrived today via USPS. Out of 5 items ordered, 1 is missing from the package. The 4 titles I received are all in excellent condition and arrived in a undamaged bubble mailer. I've contacted CS via their online "contact us" link to get a replacement.

Good to know. I would be really annoyed if the 7-8 Adness Chiba titles I ordered came slashed.

Thanks again for posting the pics!

I couldn't care less about the slashes in the packaging, but that pic of Neville Brand disturbs me to no end.

Re: movies4wholesale.com - DVDs $1 to $3

My order (all new items) of 16 items had one with a slashed UPC code. No big deal for me, I don't sit and watch the UPC code.

I'm placing another order tonight...
