The ones that say part one or part two is because the CED format can only hold about 2 hours and if they needed more space they had to make a second disk. There are a couple that don't specifically say part 1 or part 2 but I assume that is the case for the repeats. It looks like I only got the second half of the first Godfather movie because there is no second disk.

This isn't something I would normally buy but there has been quiet the drought for me video game wise and the wife really wanted them. We do profess to be collectors of all media so I guess this is a pretty good step in that direction.

I have to get a CED player now, its a bummer having these 80 or so movies around that I can't watch. 

[den68]

well good luck finding one. that's a hell of an awesome movie score.

there are always some on ebay but they are pretty heavy and delicate. shipping is expensive but beyond that I'd be concerned about the thing arriving in one piece. I've seen how UPS guys handle packages.

It took me over 2 years to finally stumble on one at a thrift store.

[nupoile]

Yeah the lady we bought them from said she had just seen a player at a local thrift store. We went there right after the garage sale and asked the employees but they hadn't seen it, so I don't know if she meant a different store or what. Oh well, one more thing to keep an eye out for I guess.

I almost bought one at the local Salvation Army, but my mom wouldn't spot me the cash -- and I would have had the $$$ the day after.

Ah well...

[Tynstar]

Any Criterion ones I would like.

I didn't check to see if any were Criterion editions. I think a few are possible titles, I will check when I stop back next week.

If they are I will buy them from you if you have the cash to get them. If not no big deal.

I finally made it back to that store and found only one Criterion edition in the lot it's Ghostbusters.  I did notice one corner of the cover had a bend in it, other than that it looked ok.  I think it's a single disk movie $2.99, that's shouldn't be a problem to spot you that.   I'll PM you when I pick it up later this week.

Dont get it I already have that one. Thanks anyways.

[bum-man]

No problem
