Never seen any Criterions. They mostly have mainstream releases like what you'd find advertised at Circuit City/Best Buy.

DVDs are New and Sealed - just as if you bought in store.

They are on Broadway & Fulton, towards the end of the street on Fulton.

I wouldn't walk into J&R (especailly Park Row 23 where the DVDs store is) , or Borders after buying from them. The alarm will go off. Those DVDs are stolen, why else would they be selling them on the street.

Dude - They're not stolen. They just fell off a truck.

Just FYI--He was not there on Fulton yesterday, 1/23. There were several vendors (mostly books, some bed sheets, etc.) and a lot of construction on Fulton, though.

Can anyone in the Fulton St. area post a heads-up if he is there on a given day? It's a long ride downtown to just check if he's set up. Also, is he more likely to be there on a Thursday (with new releases)? Thx...

He was there today (wednesday) when I went by around 2pm. Multiple copies of some new releases such as DaVinci Code and Little Miss Sunshine.

Thx! Any video games as well? (Wii games?)

Which side of the street was he on (north, or south with the barriers), and how far in from Broadway? Thx again. I might stop by tomorrow if I can.

He was on the south side of the street, about 1/2 a block east of Broadway. I think there were some video games, but since I'm not a gamer I didn't really pay attention.

Sorry to bring up an old thread, but I was in the city yesterday and was wondering if anyone knows if this guy is still around somewhere.
