You know I hadn't even heard of LaserDisc until you pick some up at SEGE or did the video from the thrift store that you had picked up. Indiana Jones. I have no idea which one came first LOL. I had to look up to see if The secret garden was worth anything sealed and sadly it's only but 10 bucks. Still super neat, expensive or not. It's an amazing collection for sure

The resolution is about 450p. A little under the standard 480p at the time. Often times the LDs would get the safe transfer that was mean for the VHS copy. Hence why they would be a softer image. They’d often tailor to what VHS would look like since that version would sell way more copies. Nice collection man 🤙🏻

Remember watching a fair bit of Laser Disc movies in the 90s. The resolution must have been more than 240p. I mean, standard VHS is 480p. The pictures were crystal clear, and you could frame by frame to get to a specific point in the film, with no blurring or the effects that plagues VHS. Nice to see a consumer "report" like this....

I remember you telling us about the pawn shop dollar bin. What a douche! Why have a dollar bin. Screw that! I would never give him a dime of business and he would get a bad yelp review too…🤬 GameStop retro is a joke…I actually have a small experience recently with them and it pissed me off too.

Congrats on almost 7 years and I get what you're saying. While it's best to try to stay positive, sometimes those negative experiences just bubble to the surface and talking about them and sharing your woes is a part of the human condition. It's not all rainbows and butterflies all the time and I'm sorry you've had those experiences. I would especially be pissed by the strategy guide but 2nd and Charles wasting your time sucks just as much in its own specific way. Also, we definitely feel the same way about Retro GameStop. 😢

I’m not a haggling type of person so I probably fall prey to bad deals all the time, we don’t really have as many physical stores in the UK here so I just usually end up having to purchase items online. I wish people who sold online gave more photos that’s my biggest gripe. Show me case condition, disc condition etc it’s so lacking. I’ve only experienced two sales where I’m left feeling completely done over most of my experiences fortunately have been positive. But as this hobby has boomed it seems so many more problems have been introduced like pricing going through the roof much quicker it feels like. One instance was people purchased BG1&2 remasters out and made the price stay at 60. Whereas before BG3 released you could get the collectors edition for 20ish. It just puzzles me how these prices get pushed universally 😂 Sorry to hear about your experience though it sucks for sure. Congrats on 7 years as well!! Amazing job and here’s to the next 7 ✊

Congrats on almost 7 years! I saw this video and was like oh yeah it is the 15th already. lol Sharing your negative or bad experiences isn't the same as being negative. I don't think you were harping or being excessive but just stating this is what has happened to me and it stunk. Pawn shops I rarely go to these days. It just doesn't seem worth it unless I am in the area and have a lot of free time. I haven't even tried looking at Gamestop in months. The selection of physical has been lacking for years and adding retro isn't going to entice me in. I'd much rather go to my local retro shop.

Are they still making 3D releases? I bet MIB is a good one in 3D. Pixels too! 🤣 Seems like certain films translated much better than others. Point Break remake was a terrible movie.
