Family Video on Ebay
Came across their seller ID recently.
It is...familyvideoshop.
They only list about 40-60 titles at a time,
and they are a mix of FS & WS. A lot of
$4.99 & $5.99 single disc versions of recent
releases, with others going as high as $14.99.
The discs are always pristine & unscratched
and takes about a week to get them. And the
shipping is the usual .99 for the entire order.
To give an example, I recently got the single
disc WS version of V For Vendetta for $4.99
& the WS version of X Men:The Last Stand for
$5.99.
Pretty good prices if you don't care about all
the special features.

hmm, new member + lots of exclamation points = unauthorized forum advertising???
edit: probably not judging from other posts, but it sure looks suspicious.

No I am not forum advertising. I was just trying to
contribute & pass on what I thought was a pretty
good find.
Didn't mean to step on anyone's toes, & I'm sorry
about the exclamation points.

Though we tend to frown upon eBay type sales, legitimate companies who have stores on eBay usually are okay. I picked up two titles just now. I'll report back on condition/etc for others who may not want to risk it, but based on their store side experience, I think it will probably be okay..
