So I ran into a couple of problems today. Backlash 01, and King of the Ring 2000 showed up today. Backlash was fine. The problem was KOTR 2000 supposed to be sealed. Nope, it didn't have a seal, and had a terrible cellophane re-wrap, and the spindle inside the case was messed up so the disc would slip off. Now luckilly the disc was in good shape, and so were the cover and insert so I just switched cases with another DVD. This dude is gonna get hell from me though, I don't care how fast it got here, it wasn't sealed at all, and was partially damaged. The saving grace was that it was really cheap to begin with. Problem number 2. I get an email from the guy I bought Survivor Series 2000 from, and he says he screwed up and that it wasn't the DVD, but the VHS. He quickly gave me a refund on it but that just meant I had to find another copy, and there was no way I was finding it for 16.99 again. I found a copy for 22 bucks which isn't that bad really, but it frustrates the holy hell out of me. So after that I added up all my totals from Jan 1st to the 6th, and my total for all these.... Summerslam 99 Royal Rumble 2000 King of the Ring 2000 not sealed Judgement Day 2000/Fully Loaded 2000 Tagged Classic new Summerslam 2000 Survivor Series 2000 Armageddon 2000/No Way Out 2001 Tagged Classic new Royal Rumble 2001 Backlash 2001 Judgment Day 2001 Summerslam 2001 Unforgiven 2001 King of the Ring 2002 sealed Armageddon 2002 sealed NWO: Back in Black The grand total came to 254.47, thats with shipping though, came to 204.70 for the actual prices of the DVD's, thats 13.64 per DVD. But at least now I have MOST of what I want, there are still a few things I wanna get, but for now I'm done lol. However I do have a Judgment Day 2002 to trade, and a sealed Hell in a Cell on Blu to trade as well. Just private message me if you're interested.

Here are a few of mine taken over the holidays I have lots more though The only thing I wish I had from your collection is No Way Out 2002, just because I actually enjoyed that PPV! And by the way, how is the tracking on the Classic Five set? If you mean the picture quality than its just fine on the classic five. Agreed No Way Out 2002 was a very underrated ppv and I was plesantly suprised by how good it was. Only bad thing is "feel so numb" was replaced with a generic ppv theme.

Does anyone own Night of Champions 2010 on Blu Ray? In December, I saw it was available on the Best Buy website, and then it suddenly vanished before I could buy it.

Right now, I feel like I am leaning towards getting the off-month PPVs on Blu-Ray as well, like HIAC and Bragging Rights. Same with the big PPVs.

I am suddenly considering buying some of those UK Tagged Classics now lol. If you've watched any of them, how are they in terms of edited music and such? I just know they aren't blurred.

Essentially the TC are VHS masters from WWF Home Video transferred to DVD. Any editing was done on the original source, not on the way to DVD.

Well they are straight dubs of the WWF Home Video VHS releases, so whatever music was on those is what is on these. I haven't really noticed anything so far.

By the way, playing these through VLC doesn't change the region on your PC's DVD drive, so you don't have to worry about your drive using up one the times it can have its region changed. Its 5 on most drives.

I found an ad on Craigslist of someone selling a bunch of WWE DVDs. I contacted them and made an offer and they agreed to it through email. I think I'm making out very nicely, but let me know what you guys think before I actually do it...
I give him $250 for...
Backlash 07 No Way Out 07 New Years Revolution 06 & 07 Cyber Sunder 06 Armageddon 04 & 06 December to Dismember 06 No Mercy 02, 03, & 06 Unforgiven 02, 03, & 06 Great American Bash 04 & 06 Roddy Piper DVD Vince McMahon DVD Kane DVD Bad Blood 03 Vengeance 03 & 06 Judgment Day 03 & 06 Global Warning Legacy of Stone Cold Steve Austin Hardy Boyz: Twist of Fate Brian Pillman DVD (most recent) HHH DVD Undertaker DVD Best of the IC Title Eddie Guerrero DVD HBK- Boyhood Dreams Hulk Hogan DVD(the one released a few years ago) Monday Night Wars Ric Flair DVD (first DVD set) 2005 PPV Set (15 discs)
Overall it's 51 PPVs/wrestler sets for $250, which is slightly less that $5 each. Seems like an amazing deal to me, especially as someone who is trying to get back into collecting DVDs.
Also, any advice on how to handle a CL transaction like this? I mentioned meeting in a public place to ensure safety & legitimacy for all involved, which the other party is fine with...but I still get nervous about CL transactions...
