Nope, I've purchased some along the way but my addictions have run from Jackie to Chow to Lau Ching Wan (8 in my last order of 13 from DDDhouse were LCW DVDs
).

Jet Li movies not getting proper treatment on DVD
I'd love to find 16:9 enhanced versions of these titles in any region since the R1 Buena Vista releases aren't....
The Defender
The Enforcer
Fist Of Legend
The Legend
The Legend 2
Twin Warriors
I've got the R2 HKL DVDs of Once Upon A Time In China 1 & 2 and Hitman which are excellent!

addiction...
Addicted to Jackie Chan? Yes. Definitely. Horribly bad. However, I am holding off on several DVDs because I know they have scenes cut out of 'em.
I wouldn't say I was/am addicted to Jet Li DVDs although I have displayed some serious compulsory behavior. I had to seek out and watch (but not buy all of them) a bunch of movies of his. I don't mean anything deragatory, but all I wanted to see was what he could do without undercranking and wires. I finally succeeded in this quest by acquiring copies of Shaolin Temple 1 & 3. Since then, my compulsion has switched tracks and is driving me to seek out good old-school stuff, esp stuff with/by Lau Kar Leung.
Slight twinges of compulsion has also manifested themselves for Sammo, Yuen Biao, and (ok, please don't hit me hard for this one)...Steven Seagal (his early stuff..just his early stuff...

After BLACK MASK, I thought I could get addicted to Jet Li DVDs. So I tried THE DEFENDER, and couldn't make it through half of it.
I recently gave it another shot, though, and enjoyed it. Last night I watched TWIN WARRIORS, and loved it!
I also recently rented (and subsequently purchased) MELTDOWN (aka HIGH RISK). That one is a lot of fun.
Next on my list are the ONCE UPON A TIME IN CHINA trilogy. Hopefully they won't let me down. I'm also intrigued by the upcoming RED DRAGON. Anyone seen this?

Yeah, I'm addicted.
But, I try to spread the love around a bit. 
Own more than a dozen of these actors:
Jet Li, Jackie Chan
more than 1/2 dozen...
LCW, CYF, Michelle Yeoh, Anthony Wong... I almost hate to admit it, but probably more than 6 Ekin Cheng too... hehe
Cheers,
Gabe

I own all of Jet Li's movies that are available on DVD (in many cases I have a few different versions) with the exception of a few of his really early movies. I also own about 92% of Jackie Chan's library on DVD. I also own every Stephen Chow DVD and VCD I could find. Yeah - I'm addicted. But did I even need to post in this thread for you to know that?

I have 20+ Jackie DVD's...they are mostly HK DVD's but i have some R1 titles in there that i cannot find a good HK replacement for. Thankfully very few of these (probably 3) are dubbed only.
I have three Jet Li movies: Fong Sai Yuk, Dr. Wai & Last Hero In China.
