Re: Official VCI/ROAN/ALPHA Bargain Thread

Watch out with Alpha if you're buying a brand new copy of any of their releases as they have gone exclusively burned on EVERYTHING. You may luck out and get a pressed copy if you buy used, but new it...

Re: Official VCI/ROAN/ALPHA Bargain Thread

Welcome, Russ and thanks for the shout out.

There used to be trolls aplenty on DVDTalk, but they never had much use for this thread, which I started back in the day to corral all of the fans of...

Re: Official VCI/ROAN/ALPHA Bargain Thread

Brian, I'm rethinking making any changes to my last order based on the possibility you brought up about collections potentially going out of print. It's also possible that even if the collection...

Re: Official VCI/ROAN/ALPHA Bargain Thread

Then you should order SILVER FLEET and MORNING DEPARTURE now at $3.99 because those two are not included on the sets. ;)

I wasn't aware of the sets either, so thanks for that, Brian. I may cancel...

Re: Official VCI/ROAN/ALPHA Bargain Thread

I had to call VCI today to fix a glitch in my last order and was surprised and disappointed to learn that their stalwart CSR Penny is no longer with them. I had been dealing with her for years and...

Re: Official VCI/ROAN/ALPHA Bargain Thread

I just noticed that the serial THE LOST CITY has either been added or I missed seeing it prior to placing my order. Of course, I'm going to believe it was the former and not beat myself up for not...

Re: Official VCI/ROAN/ALPHA Bargain Thread

Great minds think alike, Bob and Moo!

There were several in this sale I paid more for in years past and that I still haven't watched, which I admit chafes me a bit, but what can you do? I've...

Re: Official VCI/ROAN/ALPHA Bargain Thread

Thanks to the enablers in this thread, I wound up spending money on this sale that I shouldn't have! There I was minding my own business when everyone swooped in on me with news of these deals and I...

Re: Official VCI/ROAN/ALPHA Bargain Thread

I agree with you about the VCI serials, most of which are the definitive versions. The only ones which are sometimes better than VCI as far as the public domain titles go are the Hal Roach editions...

Re: Official VCI/ROAN/ALPHA Bargain Thread

DVD Beaver has reviewed a fairly good number of VCI titles (especially the noirs), probably more than any other established online critic. He is not very supportive of their quality in general, so...

Re: Official VCI/ROAN/ALPHA Bargain Thread

I've gone over the selections three or four times now and just couldn't find much this time that I didn't already have. I've bought quite a bit from VCI over the years. These prices are great, no...

Re: Official VCI/ROAN/ALPHA Bargain Thread

VCI seems a bit overwhelmed by their recent sales. Still haven't received two of the items from my November 25 order, but one came yesterday and it was the wrong title.

Re: Official VCI/ROAN/ALPHA Bargain Thread

That's great news, thanks for letting us know.

I decided I wanted to add another title as it's pressed right now, but may not always be, so I called to see if my order from last Thursday had...

Re: Official VCI/ROAN/ALPHA Bargain Thread

I did some more research and I think you're safe. I looked into a couple of the Cliffhanger sets and only found one serial included that was clearly marked DVD-R, the rest said DVD. So I'm assuming...

Re: Official VCI/ROAN/ALPHA Bargain Thread

I don't believe any of the cliffhanger sets are DVD-Rs as they all say DVD under them, but I've been trying to call VCI today just to make sure before I place my order. They must have already left...

Re: Official VCI/ROAN/ALPHA Bargain Thread

Also waiting for those new exclusives to be included as part of a sale. They are great sets, but could potentially be partial double dips. I'm focusing on the ones where I have none of the titles.

Re: Official VCI/ROAN/ALPHA Bargain Thread

Does anyone know if ROAN's HORROR CLASSICS 6: THE GORILLA/NABONGA is now an MOD? It's $8.39 at Amazon which doesn't seem too bad, but I have no idea how the quality is on this title.
