I used to have a TON of them on VHS from the original airings, but I tossed them, fully expecting them to be on DVD within a few years....that was at least 5 years ago, but I think more.

I'm kinda pissed about throwing them out too. If someone has them on VHS somewhere, I have a Sony DVD recorder and can transfer them no problem. I would love to get the originals in halfway decent quality. I'd rather not buy the DVDs when they come out if I can help it....I don't support Lucas' neurotic tinkering.

They are not very common to find, that's for sure. I've never seen bootlegs on eBay, nor have I seen bootlegs at conventions.
