I worked in a pawn shop for 10 years. I was able to collect thousands of Limited, Collector's & Promotional Editions of movies on DVD & Blu-ray.
With a collection this large, you can assume I'm very picky with the condition of the titles I would keep.
60 4K Ultra Blu-rays.
5872 Blu-rays.
8843 DVDs.
2465 VHS (Including titles not available on DVD or Blu-ray)
29 HD-DVD
2 Laserdiscs
1 Beta
Almost Every Film That Has Ever Appeared on The IMDB: Internet Movie Database's 250 List (Including those no longer on it).
Every or Almost Every Film By - Alfred Hitchcock, Akira Kurosawa, Stanley Kubrick, Steven Spielberg, Woody Allen, Oliver Stone, Peter Jackson, Frank Capra, Quentin Tarantino, Robert Rodriguez, P.T. Anderson, Michael Bay, Ridley Scott, Tony Scott, Alex Proyas, Hayao Miyazaki...
I'm selling it for $1,000,000, shipping included.

I have compiled the most Limited of Editions.
Example: Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows Part's 1 & 2 Blu-ray 2D Editions. They were released a year apart with promotional items from Wal-Mart, Best Buy, HMV, Future Shop, Target, Etc. - For Part 1, I have a Slipcover & Comic Book from Best Buy. For Part 2, I have a Cover Sleeve & Bonus Disc from Target and they are both housed in a Collector's Box Set from HMV. This is something you cannot buy on eBay and would require you to purchase 5 copies of the movies to put them together.
Example 2: All 3 Slipcovers for Horrible Bosses Blu-ray.
Example 3: Hotel Transylvania 3D; Includes 3D Slipcover + Wal-Mart Exclusive 2D version Slipcover & Bonus Disc.
Example 4: Inception Blu-ray. I have the 3D Slipcover with the Future Shop Exclusive Steelbook, housed in a Best Buy Exclusive Box Set with the original Screenplay.)
I have thousands of Editions like this.
Nolan Wright
Damn i'd love to live in a house so big there was space for entire movie collection, with corridors between huge shelves. Fucking americans!!!!! Where I live its common for people to want to live inside a single room apartment. And suicides are high
Luis Allen
This is probably bait, but all those special editions you bought are worth absolutely nothing, man. Nothing.
Lincoln Hughes
They are worth something to me.
542 Criterion titles, including many Out Of Print (Probably the largest Criterion Collection ever for sale)
296 3D Blu-ray's (Probably the largest collection of 3D Blu-ray's, as there are only about 300 feature length 3D Blu-ray titles available)
Academy Award Winners 90 out of 90 Best Picture; 83/90 - Best Director; 79/91 - Best Actor; 67/92 - Best Actress.
Complete Dragon Dynasty Collection on DVD & Blu-ray.
Complete Fox Film Noir Collection.
Complete Universal Monsters: Legacy Collection on DVD & Blu-ray.
Every Marvel Film.
Every Pixar Film.
Every Disney Animated Classic.
Every Studio Ghibli Film.
6 Anchor Bay Limited Edition Tins + The Wicker Man: Wooden Box still sealed, Heathers Locker, Evil Dead "Books" + many more Anchor Bay Limited Editions.
8 Twilight Time.
63 Arrow Video Releases.
Over 100 Shout! Factory Titles, Including 37 Scream Factory.
Dozens of Steelbook, DigiBook, Collector's Box Sets.
Kevin Reed
>2 Laserdiscs
Surprising for a collection driven guy like you seem to be. How come? There are plenty of movies that had unique versions in LD.
Juan King
They were already on the way out by the time I started collecting and I never saw the reason to go back and buy obsolete media.
Michael Miller
I want them I need them
Connor Thomas
Check my ebay listing. "17,272 Movies! World's Largest Collection.Blu-ray/DVD/3D/Criterion/Steelbook/OOP"
Jason Parker
implying Sup Forums likes to watch television and movies lmao
Brayden Moore
How are they organized?
Luis Morales
I own 0 movies in any format
Jayden Robinson
Alphabetically.
Aaron Foster
>cheap, ugly plywood for shelving
Nigger what the fuck are you doing?
Get some ACTUAL shelves with finish on them. Make the place feel like a comfy-as-fuck video rental store from the 80's.
The way it is now I can SMELL how depressing that room is. It smells like sawdust and glue.
Grayson Rodriguez
you will never find a buyer for this huge chunk of plastic trash
Juan Butler
>All that unfinished particle board
Disgusting
Logan Jenkins
a million is a lot m8
Andrew Lee
Roughly 60 dollars a movie.
Christopher Anderson
fpbp
Adam Russell
...
Julian Morgan
Movies are not that expensive
Christian Diaz
Disagreed, he might find some rich cinephile if he he's patient, but man 1 million $ seems overpriced to me when more that 50% of the media is on dvd and vhs. I dunno I didn't do the math mind you. And it's true that complete collections augment the overall sell value.
Adam White
It's not a room, it's the whole second floor of my house.
What do you think a reasonable price would be? I'm open to offers.
Samuel Fisher
I'm good tbqh familiorini
Bentley Lewis
Less than 50k
Ayden Myers
If you own too many movies the movies end up owning you
Benjamin Wilson
Now that's something I'd buy. Actually saves me time and it would be very comforting to have a few HDDs full of all kinds of movies ready to watch. Fuck OPs huge pile of junk.
Levi Sanders
Damn, fuck that shit.
Director shelves and then for everything else year. The point is to literally complete a shelf. Can't do that alphabetically.
Lincoln Bell
all that shit will be lost like tears in the rain, nigga
Ayden Evans
Where do you live? This should obviously be local pick up only.
Michael Turner
Wow, you really did turn the second floor of your house into a shitty used DVD store.
Jason Rivera
Look into collections Criterion and other specialized publishers are worth more than regular editions, etc which could be sold at $20 or less
Chase Rivera
his last video was a part 1
did he died?
Jeremiah Fisher
dare you to get bettter shelves
Xavier Thompson
I can personally deliver it anywhere in Canada or the US at my expense. I love road trips and meeting fellow collectors!
William Watson
> 0 CED Selectavision discs FAIL
Lucas King
Oh ok well that's fair enough then.
Noah Thompson
Imagine the plastic fire if that place caught fire, it would be like a tyre dump that you can't extinguish
Jack Sullivan
How much did all of this cost you over the time it took you to accumulate this collection? You'd be lucky to get a few dollars back for every DVD, maybe 10-30 for each VHS if they're rare enough, a little less than retail value on the Blu-Rays (unless they're out of print) and the laserdiscs maybe 20-40 a piece. You're nuts if you think anyone will pay 1 million for such a small collection. There are people with much larger collections who have attempted to sell for the same price range and, for many years, have had no luck in doing so.
Noah Cook
thats cool, i just download stuff
David Thompson
meant to reply to
Wyatt Nelson
Sold!
Wyatt Rodriguez
$500,000
Julian Ross
Who would buy the entire collection? It's just a bunch of movies on decrepit formats. Hardly worthy of collecting for a millionaire? Or maybe DVD collections is the thing now.
I can see you selling a few every now and then on ebay or craigslist, and eventually get rid of them that way over a few years. I certainly wouldn't hold out for some millionaire.
Chase Martinez
His shelves of Fellini to Franco fell on him.
Nathan Gutierrez
No one wants your terrible collection bet there isn't 5 good movies in it
Anthony Moore
A few years ago I collected porn. It was such a waste of time.
I don't even like any of the shit I remember collecting now.
Adrian Sanders
What are you going to collect once it's sold? 850 people watching on ebay already. pic not related.
Blake Carter
all that can fit on a few flash drives.
Joseph Wright
Fool. Like the pharohs of old, he shall be buried in there with his treasure.
Joshua Murphy
You collected DVDs or what? I've got a few.
Justin Ward
Sure, if you download Yify rips.
Nolan Jackson
>anyone want to buy the garbage in my basement >anyone?
Thomas Clark
1.) 60 4K Ultra Blu-rays. 4.) 5872 Blu-rays. 3.) 8843 DVDs. 2.) 2465 VHS (Including titles not available on DVD or Blu-ray)
This is the order you need to sell and sell the most expensive first.
Chase Anderson
Sent ;)
Jason Fisher
Considering most of the collection is on dvd or worse. That's not true
Christopher Murphy
Looking for this Jerry Lewis movie that has never had a DVD or BD release.
Sebastian White
>You mad, /tv
why would Sup Forums be mad? most Sup Forumsfags watch only 20 movies per year. the most mainstream trash.
Josiah Perez
A single-layer DVD in its original format is over 4gb, and dual layer up to 8.5gb. It could probably all fit on a 8TB hard drive if it was all crappy, re-encoded video files averaging 500mb.
Jacob Young
people who collect are fucked in the head
Jeremiah King
...
Dylan Moore
i collect stamps, and getting into book collecting. it's just a hobby, something i desperately needed.
also nice to go to conventions once in a while and discuss something other than movies, and see some 75 year old brag about his collection.
Jaxson Price
Well let's start with the fact that 90% of these videos are gonna be shit. So really the whole collection is moot
Evan Lopez
I threw away just over 20k VHS movies like 3 years ago.
>tfw having watched over 50k movies in my life time
I'm so fucking jaded now.
Blake Flores
poor fag
Adam Kelly
You just proved my point
Wyatt Stewart
I'm with you on that, most of this shit isn't even worthy of being dumped in a landfill. OP should have focused on collecting rare vinyl records instead of crappy optical media.
Luis Peterson
how?
Lincoln Brooks
Show me "somewhere in time" in your collection...K thanks
Logan Campbell
You don't have to be rich to collect.
Look at all the retardation you've managed to find
Samuel Reyes
rate
Eli James
>cheap, ugly anime girl for posting fuck off autism
Michael Ramirez
Do you not know about vinyl movies?
Liam Brown
>somewhere in time
Is that the one where superman is a time traveler?
Adam Allen
Yeah, its also has Dr.Quinn and has the score by John Barry and Has Christopher Plummer, I personally think its Reeves finest movie.
Christopher Edwards
how can anyone watch and enjoy so much pleb shit
Owen Hall
Laserdiscs are the vinyl records of home video.
Ryan Murphy
You realize it would take 2 years of your entire life to watch all this shit
Hudson Ortiz
lol yeah forgot about medicine woman.
Ayden Martinez
No, vinyl movies are the vinyl records of movies.
Henry Scott
Why? It's worthless.
Asher Powell
Laserdisc is analog, like vinyl. It's the closest analogue.
Colton Collins
Abysmal. Like 2 good movies and bad TV as wel
John Bell
WHAT'S IN THE BOX
Josiah Reyes
>Calling Christopher Reeves best performance worthless >Writing off Chad John Barry and in his words "most emotional score"
Austin Diaz
For the third time: There are vinyl movies.
Ian Wilson
oh man all 3 limited editions of Horrible Bosses and you're only asking for a million what a steal
Grayson Moore
I meant monetarily.
Blake Mitchell
super underrated movie, Shame that no one can appreciated it here.
Carson Flores
my dad has a pretty big laserdisc collection
think he thought it was the next big thing until for filmophiles
Logan Jenkins
oh it was atrocious, panned by the critics for being cheesy but we all know ebert and friends were wrong a good bit of the time...soooooooo
Anthony Perez
I can barely remember anything about it other than it was drama and a little time travel or something.
Kevin Green
You mean that dead '80s format? Yes, I am familiar.
Kevin Bennett
why is it that people who collect movies ALWAYS have such fucking shit, infantile taste?
Brayden Anderson
> I never saw the reason to go back and buy obsolete media.
yet you own more than 13 thousands dvd and vhs OP the LDs would have grown in reselling value much more than these 13K items
But hey nice collection regardless
Josiah Anderson
A collection for a collections sake is fucking dumb, he hasn't even watched most of the films he owns. What's the point? Just a waste of time, money, and space.
