Still waiting for it in the mail.

Good for you. When? Was it when the WWF turned into WWE and they had a sale on the old WWF dvd's? Or a buddy? Because if you got it on ebay or somewhere else online like Amazon or Highspots, you got a STEAL. Local shop. The same one charging $41.99 for KOTR 2001.

I paid 55 bucks for my copy of WM which I'm waiting on.
41.99 for KOTR 2001? Wow... I paid 50 for KOTR 2000-2002

That's crazy. Well, both statements. I can see most of the 01 PPV's being reasonably priced around $17.99-$21.99 if they're in stores. Its a little much for a Used DVD but these aren't too common DVD's.That's what I'd pay for those without feeling I got ripped off a little bit. Mania, Summerslam, Royal Rumble, Survivor Series I could easily see being more because they're the Big 4 and a few other reasons. But $41.99 for King of the Ring?!! $49.99 for another show that's not Mania? I really like KotR 2001. But there's no way I'd pay over $20 for that. Wrestlemania X-Seven being that low priced while King of the Ring that overpriced.... Seems like you were in bizarro land that day. Did you pick up any of the others? I've been looking at local shops for the last few years for WWF stuff. Found InVasion, Summerslam, Survivor Series from 2001 at FYE about a year ago. Not one over $14.99. No luck since anywhere else. Those DVD's sold like hotcakes though. I left Survivor Series there(already had it) and the next day it was gone. Anyone else had success looking for 2000-2001 dvd's in stores(besides when they were readily available of course)??

X-Seven I needed back because I had traded it a few years ago. Oddly (and stupidly) enough, the $49.99 PPV was InVasion.

Yeah I know hahhaha. One of the "New" condition DVD's was $89.99. Hell noooo That's crazy. I know it's nice sometimes to own the original WWF releases just for the sake of owning them, but some of the prices I've seen it go for on eBay is ridiculous. I'm happy enough with my Tagged Classic of it, haha. That's just it. for you guys in the UK, getting the likes of Wrestlemania 17 on DVD uncensored is no problem what so ever since you guys get brand new Tagged Classics for great prices. for you guys those are sold everyday and they never go out of stock. for us here we have to hunt down the old releases on used shops and most have no choice but to pay a ridiculous amount of money if they want the original release. these are'nt easy to come by by any means.

InVasion was $49.99........ Umm...... I can understand the novelty of it being the first big WCW/ECW vs. WWF tag but that was a terrible show all together. I bought the DVD for RVD/Jeff Hardy(in my mind it saved the show) and the main event, even though I didn't care for the ending. I hated the ending watching it live and I don't care for it today although it made Angle a great babyface until September. $14.99? Yeah, I'll watch those 2 matches and the rest of the show enough to make it worth it and the price is pretty good. $49.99.. no fn way. If that ever sold/sells, someone has to be a massive fan of that show
Tagged Classics are a phenomenal thing. I've never bought one though. I really want to pick up like.... everything but no funds at the moment and my blu ray player isn't region free. :/ . Its ok though. To be honest if I had everything from 1995-2001 I'd never leave my room. hahaha

I just got Invasion for $9 so yeah $50 is WAY too much. I only really find older dvds from places like Suncoast, FYE [gone in Sac now ], and Dimple Records. Other than that I just buy stuff online. I wish I had more Sac stores that sold stuff like that.

You have NO idea. I've spent WAY too much money on dvd's in the past month. It's ridiculous, starting this dvd collection was either a really good idea or a really really BAD idea because I just cant help myself. I got 5, count em, 5 dvd's in the mail today. All OOP dvd's

Seeing these crazy prices for older DVDs reminds me I made the right choice getting a DVD recorder when they first came out. I just taped the PPVs & burned them. The quality is still good & I'm not getting edited shows

If a dvd doesn't have cover art, I'm not going to buy it. That's why I don't buy burned ppv's. Maybe different for Raw's or SD's.

Yea, I think the prices being talked about it insane, hell, it'd be cheaper to just unlock your DVD player, which is free, change the Region to all, and buy Tagged Classics from the UK
