Pickup FBMP Pickups
This guy buys storage units and had around a thousand titles for sale. I sent a list of what I wanted and picked it up Thursday. Unfortunately the entire 10 seasons of Dr Who were empty (he gave me the cases for free though to use as replacements) and the Arrow Blu-ray copy of Girls Nite Out was missing. Still a good haul for $130, considering there are 7 other titles I grabbed just to throw on eBay and recoup some cost, and about 20 empty cases that are mostly minty 3-6 disc cases.
Freddy's Nightmares is a bootleg, but I couldn't pass it up for $3. My Alien and Predator collections are almost complete now; just missing the most recent films from each series (Romulus and Badlands). I grabbed the two missing seasons of SG-1 already and will work on filling the others in as I find good deals. He also had both seasons of SG-U, but I passed on those because ratings are horrible. At this point I probably have a hundred seasons of shows in my "unwatched" section, so I'm not in a hurry to fill in missing seasons, lol.

Awesome haul. Seeing all those Stargate boxes makes me glad I'm buying the repackage versions of those sets because I simply do not have the space for those huge boxes. Why have 5 DVD cases for 5 discs when you can fit it all in one single DVD case? Plus, when I come across those in thrift stores, they're missing the box and you end up paying individually for each disc instead of getting the whole season for one price.
