Family Video DOTD so if you want it, better pull the trigger. A dollar a disc seems like a deal to me.

Thanks! I bit. Big fan of the show! I only wanted season 5 as I already have the other seasons. I've been waiting for it to drop below $30. The price will probably get even lower than $27 eventually, but I'm tired of waiting and $27 sounds right for me. I can now chug my season 5 vhs tapes once and for all.

Thanks OP! SOLD..Definately worth it IMO. Havn't seen this show since just after high school years! My dad and I loved it. Wish he could still be around to re-live this stuff with me but Loved "The Angels" back in the 70's-

Thanks! Couldn't pass it up. Will give me my nipple fix.

Anyone get a shipping notice yet??? It said it would ship in 24 hours but that hasn't happened and I never dealt with these folks before. Anyone have any history with them and how reliable they are???
thanks-

It's been a long time since I've ordered from them, but they're definitely reliable.

Smurr, rest assured you won't get shafted by them. I've dealt with them many a time and they've been great to deal with. Just be patient and they'll get your set out to you in no time. You got a hell of a deal on that set!

smurr05

Thanks for the feedback-Much appreciated-

Got my shipping notice this morning.

Hopefully S5 will go on sale cheap sometime in the not too distant future. Unfortunately I picked up S1-S4 for about $10 each as they were released (making my total cost so far $40 + tax), and of course I never opened any of them. I didn't even research or know that there were 5 seasons, so I thought I was done until I saw this. Guess I'll wait for the price to go under $10 on S5, and then I'll have paid $50 vs. $27.

Fortunately I pass on most $10 TV DVD seasons now as too expensive and because I'm so backlogged, so hopefully I learned my lesson to not to pay too much again.

Spiderbite

From what I read, Season 5 was never released separately and there were a lot of pissed off people because it was made only available in this complete boxset. Just wanted to let you know but correct me if I am wrong.

ron lee green

Good luck getting Season 5 for $10. I doubt it will ever drop that low because it is a MOD--not a pressed DVD.
Sony is going to release it as a MOD (manufacture on demand) set available online only via places such as Amazon's CreateSpace and WBshop's Warner Archives. They are way over-priced than regular pressed dvds. I've never seen one of their MOD multi-disc TV sets go for $10.00. Right now, amazon has it $41.00!!!

Better to buy the complete series the next time it goes on sale and sell your individual seasons to get your money back. The season 5 discs in the complete series box are pressed--not MOD.

Highly bummed to hear they won't have S5 separately for a reasonable price. I've never heard of Manufacture on Demand before. Had I known this I probably would've ordered the set from Family Video for $27.

Well, I guess I'll have to look into how much I can get selling my S1-4 sets and buying the whole set someday. The old ones are probably not worth much considering I only paid $10 each, but I'd be happy to almost get my money back and apply it to the complete series.

So, now that the Family Video $27 sale is over, are there any other places to get a similar price or do I need to just wait for the Complete Series set to go on sale under $30 again somewhere?

That'sAllFolks

You're kidding, right. You've veen on this forum for 12 years and you've never heard of MOD. Or are you saying you didn't know CA S5 was MOD only.

ron lee green

I'm sure it will be on sale again in the future. You just have to wait for it.
Sony has other complete series in the same cheap spindle packaging like Soap, Good Times, and Sanford and Son--and I see them on sale all the time.
I bought the complete Sanford and Son for $20 last year.
In case you don't know--The Charlie's Angels complete series discs are stored on spindles inside a box--no cases.
That's how they keep the price low.

Manzana

Not kidding. I'm not an expert on everything. I didn't know what MOD meant, but when it was defined I understood it. I've simply never encountered any MOD discs before. I remember hearing that Warner burned copies of their "Warner archive" movies for people, but I didn't know it was for more mainstream titles. These CA complete series are actual pressed DVDs, right?

I can live with the spindle part... I have KofQ and MwC on spindles. I just hope the discs aren't scratched. I'll probably never have time to watch them anyway. I'll just keep my eye out for the CA complete series for under $30 and try to sell off the other 4 seasons. Thanks, Sony, for making the last seasons of various sets hard/expensive to get and making me do this.

That'sAllFolks

Sorry, I really thought you were kidding. I didn't mean to seem to attack you.

This is very disappointing. I should have suspected. I HATE that spindle packaging.

In my experience with dvd sets on spindles I can honestly say I've never had a problem with scratched discs, so I am not worried about this set at all. Still a great bargain IMO!
Got my shipping notice as well-

ron lee green

I got my complete series in the mail today.
The outer box is sturdy. The inner case is a cardboard fold-out and is very flimsy. It is not strong enough to hold the weight of all those discs. One of the plastic hubs that was glued to the cardboard came unattached. I will have to use my glue gun to reattach it.
Or...Better yet.
The outer box is big enough so it looks like I can transfer all the discs from the hub and move them to slim cases and store them in the outer box.
Update: Just checked and there are 27 discs. I have 14 double-sided slim cases, but that is still too wide to fit in the box. Maybe I can find another solution.

Yes, pressed.

I saw the Charlie's Angels set for $34.99 at Walmart today, and Amazon has it for $36.99. Not as cheap as the FV deal, but if this set behaves like Married with Children and King of Queens we should see $25 this next year.

smurr05

Got my set in the mail yesterday! Again absolutely no problems with any of the discs on the spindle packaging. As I've stated I have 0 problems with any of the sets I have with this style packaging so I am not really sure what all the bitchin is about with these types of sets!!! OH well...Thanks again OP for the info on this great deal!!!

scottp120

I already had the first 4 seasons on dvd, but went ahead and ordered the complete series for $27. Arrived last week and while I hate the spindle packaging, I can deal with it. The outside box is very nice, but once you open it up there are 2 cheap plastic spindles holding the dvds. I guess for $27 I can't complain.

dmkb

That's a great price. I didn't get in on it in time though.

Manzana

As I mentioned earlier, there's always Walmart at $34.96.

Well, the link doesn't work because I guess this web site prefers to break it by adding itself as the referrer. People can search then.
