Title: 1700+ DVD Collection + XBOX 360
Post by: Wolfman on December 13, 2005, 10:50:40 am
Killer Ebay auction now up.  1715 DVDs and XBOX 360.  The listing is one of the best I have ever seen too.  Over 100 pictures are used to clearly show each DVD!  Read it and weep Pecoraro!

He also is offering free shipping for what he estimates is 350-400 pounds of material.  DAMN!  Looks like the Mrs. finally put her foot down.

Most DVDs have never even been watched, if so only once or twice. Some DVDs are Un-opened.

Looking at some of those titles I am not surprised.
He did a great job on that listing.

I wonder if he\'s selling them to help pay off the outrageous credit card bill that was accumulated when purchasing them?????? That is insaine though, I\'ve got a buddy that hit about 600 dvds a couple years ago... I thought this might have been his action :)

I was raised with no reason to lie. Though I do agree that it would be unbelievable unless I saw it for my self.

Dave, I use to marvel at your DVD list, and this was a few years ago when you had the DVDtracker link in your IM profile.  I used to make dollar estimates of the entire collection\'s value.  I can only imagine how much it has ballooned in the time since.

nothing makes up for it. believe me, i\'ve tried everything..

waste of money? nah.. everyone has a hobby.. i just happen to have a lot of them (too many, i think).. but i have a lot of money invested in my home theatre, and the dvds are part of that.. also, i never pay full price for them.. between sick deals and selling on ebay for profit, my average cost is probably around $5/dvd...

How long have you been collecting DVD\'s?

Do you buy some every week?

Is there a method to your madness?

I tried to sell my soul once.  But I was SOL when its estimated value came back as only $9.95

Sold my soul in college, true story. Basically, I gave it away. A few years went by, my life hit bottom and then I had to start getting a hold of the girl I sold it to. She did send it to me via email and it is stored there as a legal doctrine. I have yet to print it and eat it. Damn, The Simpsons. Lesson here is don\'t believe what you see on TV.
