Where to buy cheap/used 80s movies

Hello,

I've recently been on an 80s movie collecting kick...Anybody know a place where you can find good bargains? I've gotten some great bargains on amazon and ebay, but the shipping rates are expensive enough where it bumps it to almost the normal price of an older DVD. Maybe a place that sells them in bulk and charges one shipping rate?

Thank you in advance.

Most pawn shops sell all their dvds for under $5. New releases, old releases, it's all the same to them.

If you're as picky as me, always inspect them for scratches, smudges and fingerprints.
I hate it also when previous owners write their name or initials with magic markers on the title side!

I can't believe the way some people treat their discs.....DVDs even CDs!

Scratches I can see being picky about but I'm fine with smudges and fingerprints. A little bit of water and a microfiber cloth and they are gone instantly.

I second Walmart and Biglots but the selection is sometimes very limited at best.
