They ever do SE for Ghost?
They ever do a SE for movie "Ghost" or solid transfer? Couple times a year I remember how this would be a great present for few relatives. Then I remember that I only seen a bargain bin version that looks abit questionable in quality. Which I find odd considering how girls as whole went crazy for this flick and how well it did at boxoffice.

If you take the time to check some reviews, including this one here at DVD Talk:

you'll discover that the current release is quite good - in fact the review states ""Ghost" gets a particularly solid special edition".

Also, don't be fooled by the bargain bin price. It's the same disc that was originally priced as a normal release. Paramount and other studios have lowered prices on titles over the years, and these get put in bargain sections.
In fact, I would say that the vast majority of discs you see in the bargain sections (and even some of the discs in the $5.88 bin at Wal-Mart) are these quality titles that have gotten price drops, unless it's an ultra-bargain bin with discs for $3 or less. Now, some of them are single-disc versions of what were originally 2-disc sets, but the A/V quality is the same. It kind of sucks when I see stuff I paid $20 or more for selling for $7.50 or less.
You do have to watch out for older releases that got new transfers and/or special editions, but the older version is still selling, i.e., the original non-anamorphic flipper version of Goodfellas in a snapper case.
