    'The Criterion Collection' is like the crème de la crème of the boutique labels; it's probably the highest regarded label among cinephiles and movie-makers.

      @@josh_graff Yeah I'd just add you are open to offbeat or odd great movies, any Criterion release is worth watching even if you are not familiar with the title (English or foreign!). In general, the company has sharp taste & most of their selections usually have worthy content-even if it doesn't look like it. So if you like good surprises.....

    Make sure there is a dvd disk in case when you buy bulk. I have bought several bulks locally and some didn’t even have dvd inside. I take the movie label out and save the case in case I come across a broken case.

    • @josh_graff
      @josh_graff  ปีที่แล้ว

      Yea that definitely happens from time to time. I always spot check them to make sure the majority are there. This is a big part of why I pay only 10 cents per dvd for bulk.

    The DVD or Blu-ray case is worth more than the movie itself in situations. I'll have a movie worth $10-15 with broke case. Its cheaper to buy a used cheap movie for just the case than trying to purchase a new replacement case. Little PSA 😎

    Hi and thanks for your videos! I find this one very useful for my lots I plan to soon work on listing. How do you go about packing them in the box? Bubblewrap or any protection? Do you tape over the handles on the lowes small box as well? Thanks in advance! Can't believe I haven't already, but I just subbed, you're so close to 1k!

    • @josh_graff

  • @kandkpop
    @kandkpop ปีที่แล้ว

    What do you mean about 'putting them in the booth'? Maybe I missed something.... Also agree that you can just make up lots based on subject matter and sell several at once which minimizes the cost of shipping per unit. I often sell lots of 6-10 DVDs for $20 or so, and charge about $5.99 for shipping. Agree that it's not worth selling them individually for less than about $6 plus shipping. Criterion Collection is a company that produces quality copies of significant movies, and if the DVD is in good condition they will sell for a decent price, I have sold some for $20-$30 before.
