There's some weird circumstances surrounding several of the above, but I've definitely double-dipped a LOT. I could probably have twice as many DVDs now without all the upgrading and re-buying (the latter of which I haven't included here), but I've also avoided a LOT of double-dips because I don't always buy everything when it's first released. Takes me YEARS for some things, which has helped with things like "How The Grinch Stole Christmas" and "Home Alone". 'bout time I bought those now I guess.

Yeah, but I don't think we want to sort through 235 posts in a thread that's been dead since 2004, so sometimes it's not a bad idea to start a new thread. I agree that it's best to search first, although I haven't had much luck with that.

The lost boys
Heat
Goodfellas

Amelie (bought the Tin box set while in Europe)
Zombi 2 (more of a triple dip )
Texas Chainsaw Massacre (recent tin set)

2004? hardly, heres the a double dip thread that was posted in last month http://forum.dvdtalk.com/showthread....double+dipping

Like I said theres hundreds of these threads on this topic and I could probably find atleast 5 recent ones within the last few months if I really wanted to.

I noticed the OP is a new member and it does not seem like the first time he has made duplicate threads so I referred him to the SEARCH button.

Casino
Heat
Goodfellas

Me too

Lets see:

A L I E N (Legacy to Quad, kept the mail away Legacy disc)
The Thing (Carpenter)
Dawn of the Dead
Day of The Dead
Evil Dead
Texas Chain Saw Massacre (Original)
Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas (regular to Criterion)
Dazed and Confused (regular to Criterion)
Black Hawk Down (single to 3 disc)
Escape From New York
Event Horizon
Boondock Saints
Goodfellas
Scarface (original to anniversary edition)
Resevoir Dogs (original to newest)
Star Wars IV-VI (I'm a whore)
Hellboy (Why, I don't know)


Will double dip if better version comes out:

Blade Runner (Already sold the original version, now waiting on that big rumored set)
Excalibur
The Road Warrior

I will double dip on the complete uncut Das Boot if the price ever drops.

i think i have double dipped on every star wars yet from vhs to dvd & then buying them individually in 2 disc special editions.
-forrest gump (vhs to 2-disc special ed. dvd)
thats about it i hate how studios re-release everything every 2 months, i might buy the special ed. of the green mile through cause the video is much better then the disc they first released that i bought.

If the new disc is a significant upgrade, then I'll get it. I try to avoid double-dips of the most blatant sort -- most of Universal's DVDs to promote sequels are awful. But it otherwise doesn't take much for me to want to upgrade.

I never double dip but I made an exception since the director's cut was completely different from the theatrical version and overall, it was a great improvement.

Too many to list, I want to go home from work. I gave up at 80 films, I was only a little over half way through my collection, and I realized that I hadn't counted the 21 films in the "Toxie's Triple Terror" packs that I double dipped on when I bought the Tox Box and the Toxie's Blood Bank cans.

???

What's the logic in this?
