Hi,

Would you please recommend a good collection for The Godfather on DVD
that you can pick out from eBay? Don't care about collector items, I
only care about the DVD being in good condition and I don't miss out
on any of the editions that came out.

Prefer a buy-now, but list a few auctions that will end in a week that
look juicy to you. :-)

Howdy, Mao!

Commercial DVDs are usually region-restricted. In what part of the
world will you be playing the DVD?

Hello Pink,

True, but I think I can at least play US DVD's and getting around that
isn't an issue.  Lets sort them as first US region adn the others down
the list.

Thank you. :-)

Hi again, Mao.

I'm a big "Godfather" fan, so this should be an interesting quest. I
have two questions before I begin:

1. You say "I don't miss out on any of the editions that came out."
Does this mean that you are wanting to buy each of the three movies in
all available editions, or are you just looking for what might be
considered the single best edition or collection?

2. Do you have your heart set on using eBay, or would you consider
other sources of used DVDs?

Please check this link, which offers a nice selection from both Half.com and eBay:

Hello Pink,

1. You're right in being confused by my statement, it didn't sound
right to me either. :-)  I meant the most complete single DVD
collection if that is possible without missing out on a released
that's not included and if it must be, add the ones that are missing.

2. No I'm not set on eBay, I had assumed that it's a place where I
feel comfy and is considered where I'd find a good deal.. but that's a
big assumption.  I really don't care, as long as they accept a credit
card or PayPal. :-)

Thank you Pink, I do look forward to your answers.

Am I to assume that you are not considering "The Godfather DVD
Collection", offered by many sellers in the link I posted? If not, can
you tell me why?

Clarification of Question by 6ra3-ga on 10 Aug 2005 13:04 PDT
Hi Pink,

I just checked it, those sure slook like them.. Are those checked by
you as the most suitable in price, along with shipping to the US, and
from sellers with a lot of positive history or shall I do that?

Why half.com by the way? I'm not questioning your reasoning, just learning. :-)

Thank you.

Mao,

If I were choosing among all the online options available, I think
would take the "Buy It Now" option here:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=6422607970

Please let me know what you think.

Rated:5 out of 5 stars
 
Mao,

I'm glad to have been able to make an offer you could not refuse!

For the record, my suggestion was this merchant's offer of The
Godfather DVD Collection:

eBay: THE GODFATHER COLLECTION Trilogy 
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=6422607970

If you enjoy the Godfather films, I highly recommend a book, "The
Godfather Legacy," which provides some entertaining background
material:

Amazon: The Godfather Legacy
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0684836475

Very best regards,

Pink,

If I were the type that reads, or is literate, I sure would get the
book... But I know you said it for the record as well. :-p

Thank you.

Mao,

Thank you very much for the five stars and the lavish tip! Hope you
enjoy The Godfather Trilogy as much as I do. I am such a big fan that
I even liked Sofia Coppola's performance in GIII. I am totally
enamored of the Coppola clan. They could probably put the family dog
onscreen, and I would think it was Sir Laurence Olivier. ;-)
