Quirky Collecting! The Bored Cyborg

[@perryfan49]

Funny, I’ve never thought of that. Saving multiple copies of something to sponsor the Brest or the best. Smart Man.

[@theboredcyborg]

Thank you! Maybe I'm not so crazy after all... or maybe w'ere both crazy... hmmm

[@Ponimaju]

It’s an interesting way to go about it, to know that money specifically from the sale of a certain film goes towards upgrading it. I can see why you’d do it that way, since if you just kinda sell things as you get them you might just end up with a pool of money that you use to buy something else and that upgrading goal gets lost. I also second recommendations to watch Harold and Maude.

[@theboredcyborg]

When you don't have much money, you've got to be smart about your hobbies! Thanks for watching, my friend.

[@Hicks-g1m]

Mike you must have a world record for movie collecting seriously you have so many movies you could start your own video rental store.

[@theboredcyborg]

I'm not sure I have a world record, but I'd love to start a video rental store as a side thing at some point in my life. Goal number 1 is to make a feature film, then maybe open up a video store!

[@Hicks-g1m]

@@theboredcyborg yeah that sounds great Mike I really do Miss video rental stores they were a huge part of my childhood growing up I remember I used to spend hours at blockbuster and other stores similar and that feature film sounds like a really great idea

[@DJFrank0379]

I've done this in the past with some DVD's

[@theboredcyborg]

Wise person! Thanks for watching.

Great intro bud. Also yes, you may have a problem. Can’t hate on the Willow love though. My wife only found a version at the time where the cover is in Chinese. Disc is perfectly fine though, so hey I’m good with it. Glad you’re still kickin ass dude!

[@theboredcyborg]

Thanks, Dave! Thanks for the reassurance 😉 Willooooooooow! I love Willow. I remember when the blu-ray/dvd went out of print, and all of those Chinese bootlegs started popping up on eBay. Hey, if it works it works! Thanks for watching, Dave! I hope you're doing well.

Hello!! Feels good to be back again... Internet was shut off Saturday due to bad overhead wires that needed to be replaced but wouldn't until Monday sometime. Finally showed up at 6pm Monday and had it all fixed in a little over an hour. :D Now playing catch up with KZbin videos. :D - Heidi

[@theboredcyborg]

I'm glad to hear you're back in effect, Heidi! Thank you for taking the time to watch my vid! You know I appreciate it.

[@michaelwardle7633]

I would be interested in how you appraise values of dvds considering how widely things vary on different secondary markets.

[@theboredcyborg]

It’s a very nuanced process that takes place in my mind. I have an overall grasp of the market on eBay, despite it changing constantly. If I buy a movie for a dollar, and it’s SELLING for 10 on eBay, then I know I could buy it, post it, and sell it, making probably 6 dollar profit on it. I usually bank most of the 6, but some of it also helps me fund stuff for the collection. I hope that clears things up a bit.

[@theboredcyborg]

The key here is that when I refer to a price, or appraise a movie, I am always referring to the eBay market.

[@RipThePhysicalMediaCommunity]

The Brewster’s Millions one in the Snapcase. That’s pretty rare I think.

[@theboredcyborg]

Thanks for the heads up, Thomas!

[@BridgeFazio]

Watch Harold and Maude - listen to your sis :)

[@theboredcyborg]

She's a wise woman!

[@benrogers9693]

Yo really ironic exiled was on this list! Glad I could help you out with that one

[@theboredcyborg]

You're the man!

[@MovieMad1]

Im in the Uk, and we still have Cex where we can trade in for vouchers if i see a movie in a thift shop and I get more in trade I do this and use the vouchers sometimes you can also find new items that you can trade in for more for example new two disc edition blu rays for stars were two for £15 and you got a £30 voucher I traded them 6 times spend £80 and got £160 in vouchers

[@theboredcyborg]

Very wise. I do the same thing on occasion. That's thinking outside the box! Thanks for watching, my friend.

[@dellonmovies1702]

I have the Scream Factory collection of The Omen. It does indeed include the 4th film (and the remake). This and The Fly Collection (also Scream Factory) have been popping up in some Wal-Marts for about $40 over the last few months, if that helps at all.

[@theboredcyborg]

Thank you for the clarification, my friend. I have the "Fly" collection, but $40 is pretty damn good for the "Omen" set. However, Wal-Mart is an ungodly place, which I shan't enter 🙃 Either way, thanks for the heads up, Wendell!

[@thenolandman9387]

Do you have any Hong Kong legends DVDs they are an Australian region 4 label

[@theboredcyborg]

I’m not sure that do own any of those particular releases. I don’t think I own many region 4 DVDs. Do you have any of them?

[@thenolandman9387]

I have 8 of them but i live in Australia and they are really rare and out of print

[@deandalziell4562]

Germany Amazon have a cheap bluray of a bronx tale and summer of 84

[@theboredcyborg]

Perfect! Thanks for the heads up. I'll look into it!

[@gamingtv394]

I just picked up a PS5 from Target, now I can watch my Dawn of the Dead 4k! Have you picked up a PS5 yet?

[@theboredcyborg]

I'm jealous! I have not picked it up yet. It'll probably be a while until I could afford it. I'll have to be patient, unfortunately, haha! Thanks for watching, my friend.

[@mrforhimself0353]

Ayy a new vid!

[@theboredcyborg]

Sure is! I hope you enjoy it!

[@j.anderson4254]

Do you have a copy of She Devil?

[@theboredcyborg]

I picked this up at some point last year! It's in the collection. Haven't seen it, however. Thanks for watching!

[@j.anderson4254]

@@theboredcyborg one of those rare finds you only see once and awhile the cover really screams at you. Love your videos bro!

[@theboredcyborg]

@@j.anderson4254 Agreed! You could hear Roseanne just looking at the cover! I'm glad you enjoy the videos. More and more to come.
