I smell perfect fodder for the $5.50 bin, and I'll happily snatch up each and every one of those titles.

Oooh, more Blaxploitation from legit DVD companies! I'm very happy they're in their OAR and inexpensive! Okay, that still leaves a few Blaxploitation titles MIA on DVD for me (Black Belt Jones and the Cleopatra Jones sequel come to mind). You can never have enough Fred Williamson in your DVD collection!

Oooo, good point - 'legit.' There are way too many titles on those shady, grey market labels that deserve better treatment.

Aye, I've bought some highly questionable DVD product from those public domain hack companies like Brentwood, but at least I didn't pay much for them. The legit companies tend to put more effort in the DVDs.

I'm just as guilty there.

As for your last sentence, you can actually take the word 'more' out of it to make it more appropriate.
