Kino Lorber is the other big one

 

DiabolikDVD is a good Twitter follow and probably my favorite place to buy from if I'm not buying direct from a distributor

 

If you like the stuff VS puts out Severin might be up your alley as well!

 

Oh Severin is a good shout, they have some really cool boxsets out there.

88Films is another shout though you are mostly gonna be importing if you want their stuff (Their Dragons Forever 4K is sick)

 

sick, thanks y'all

 

Oh and Vinegar Syndrome does good stuff!

 

yeah they were who i meant by VS above

 

god she rocks

 

Hey I redeemed Knives Out! Much appreciated dude!

Recent eBay pick ups

 

Found some more. The Lion King (classic OG) and Quantum of Solace:

 

Heard good things about the remaster, had to cop.

 

where did you buy this from? I thought this was sold out everywhere.

 

Oh didn't hear about that, Amazon circa a week ago lol

 

There's a Shout sale going on at Amazon

Have most of the 4ks but I did snag Natural Born Killers.

Think the next buys for me are gonna be the Green Room and Possessor 4Ks from Second Sight.

 

Code dump 2:

 

okay, super dumb question... when a VHS/DVD is considered "out of print" what exactly does that mean? aren't all/most VHS/DVDs not being printed anymore?

 

It means that no new copies will be made of that product

 

DVDs are still the biggest physical media seller actually

 

I thought it was that simple, but I guess I'm questioning things because, I got a copy of Bebe's Kids on VHS and it's listed as OOP but I also got a copy of Honey I Shrunk the Kids on VHS and it's not listed a OOP, so are they still making new copies of Honey I Shrunk the Kids on VHS?

 

Listed by who that way?

 

Fair question. Just what seems to be the general consensus online.

Maybe I should rephrase...

There are VHS tapes that are commonly referred to as out of print, but wasn't A History of Violence the last VHS printed? So aren't all VHS tapes out of print?

 

Yes you should consider most VHS absolutely out of print. There are a few boutique labels that print limited runs off films on VHS but it's usually indie films or cult classics

 

Okay, that's what I thought. Thanks.

So people listing certain titles (like Bebe's Kids) as out of print, aren't incorrect, but it just kind of goes without saying?

 

I think OOP in that case could just be short hand for "This Shit is Hard to Find" compared to the probably millions of copies of Terminator 2 and Titanic on VHS at least.

 

My guess is that if you are speaking about eBay, it's simply that some sellers use OOP as a sales tool to get you to click whereas others don't
