Very Happy The Way Things Are Turning Out!
Cloned From:
Let me know if you decide to sell Lawrence of Arabia, Monsieur Verdoux, or Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels. I'd definitely buy those from you.
make me an offer, it might ease my decision... i really have no idea what to ask for them.
Damn, I was hoping you'd make me an offer, I'm not very good at this. Well, first tell me, what condition are the DVDs in, and which Lawrence of Arabia is it, this one or this one?
it's the second one, the blue single disc one... and they are probably the 3 dvds in the best condition of anything in my collection, I bought them all brand new within the last 10 months and watched them all only once a piece... so they might as well be new. you can get them new on amazon for 46 dollars, or used on amazon for 22 dollars but pay seperate shipping for each, so lets say 30 and that'll take care of shipping(priority, 2-4 days) and the whole bit. fair? if not tell me so, i'm just throwing it out there.
unless of course you have any dvds your willing to trade... i'm always game for that.
The few DVDs in my collection I'd be willing to part with are ones I doubt you'd be interested in. But hey, who knows, would you like About Last Night, Annie Get Your Gun, Desperately Seeking Susan, The End, Hollywood Shuffle, Married to the Mob, Our Man Flint, or Weekend at Bernie's?
If not, 30 dollars is a bit more than I'd be willing to pay. How about 24, i.e. 8 for each one?
i was thinking along the lines of 24 plus shipping, which works for me... but if your talking 24 for the whole bit, then i'd only end up getting 20 which is 5 a piece and not worth it, not for the cream of the crop anyhow.
That's actually $6.67 apiece. But if you say shipping costs $4, how about I pay you $26 total, which is what you said I could get them for used at Amazon ($22) plus that $4. That will be $7.33 apiece for you.
that works... it's amazing how much better that 2 dollars sounds, plus i started calculating for 4 there for a minute, but 26 is good.
Okay, cool. E-mail me your address, and I'll send you a check.
So what's on the Alfred Hitchcock DVDs?
39 steps
the man who knew too much(the 30's one)
Secret agent
Young and innocent
the lady vanishes
rich and strange
Looks like this is going for about ten bucks online, so how does fourteen sound (including shipping)?
had it listed for 8 bucks buy it now on ebay, so how about 12... shipping included... and it's a deal.
Are we to understand that you think the ones you're selling aren't worth keeping?
no not at all... most of the ones i'm selling are very hard to part with... but there are so many dvds i'd love to purchase so i'm selling the ones i never watch... all of the profits are going to buying other dvds, i'm not doing for money, just recycling the ones I never watch... specially the eastwood ones are hard to get rid of, I have a pretty damn good eastwood collection and selling 5 of 18 is hard enough.
