I'm wondering, now, about the "Last Time to buy the OT" LDs, otherwise known as the Faces set. I knew someone who belonged to the Columbia House DVD Program (Buy 5, get one free), and he mentioned that those LDs were given away to new members, or something like that. Whilst the Def. Col. was going for big bucks, the Faces set, near the end, was going for $10 to $15 dollars, if that much.

Though I remember paying about $40 for the widescreen VHS release. Months later, I broke down and opened it up to play the films, and found out the tapes were bad. I was able to go back to the store (The Wherehouse, maybe?), buy a new set, and return the old set with the new receipt.
