Anybody use oldies.com?

Has anyone used http://www.oldies.com/ ? Looks like they have some good deals and some of the old stuff I like without being through the roof in price?

Have you used them?
Did you like them?
Anything one needs to know about them?
Anything?

TIA DVDave

I have used them and had no problems. The order was shipped promptly and the merchandise was factory fresh.

The only caveat I would give is that their Alpha video series is primarily public domain titles and, as with any public domain company, picture quality can be hit or miss. But they do have some truly rare titles (some, like the 1926 STUDENT OF PRAGUE were considered lost) -that none of the other public domain companies have.

I would recommend them.

Yeah, Alpha quality has always been lacking. I have a lot of PD titles mostly in those 50 movie pack and CATCOM ...
in other rare or HTF PD titles you'd recommend?

Thanks for the feedback on oldies.com, looks like a decent site. Lot of stuff there that DDD, DVDEmpire etc don't seem to have.

They are good, quick, and they pack the shipments well.

They also send you a THICK catalog by snail mail...

Some of their stuff is available through http://www.ccmusic.com which of course is the 'high-end' version of Deep Discount CD...
