will buy or trade unopened disney movies for equipment!

[susan]

I'm looking to buy some equipment for my SW reef tank I'm going to be setting up soon.
Does anyone have any used equipment/supplies they'd like to sell? I need everything and want to see what all's out there before I make a decision on any particular brands I'd like.
Also, to help get up up the money to start this hobby, I'm selling my entire collection of unopened annimated Disney VHS movies. Many are classics and all are in excellent condition. I'd be willing to trade these for equipment as well.
If you're interested, you can also e-mail me directly a rhague@metrocast.net
Thanks!

What ones do you have? Can you list them?

I might be missing something here? Are these collectors items or something?? Are they worth anymore than the sticker on their box? Or is this deal for members with young children? I'm just a little confused! <img src="graemlins//confused.gif" border="0" alt="[confused]" /> <img src="graemlins//confused.gif" border="0" alt="[confused]" />

They are both. Serious collectors buy them and never open them. (I've got every annimated movie that has hit the shelves since 1989- That's every movie Disney's made so far) Very few are opened. As I have so many, I can't list them all in the space provided.
Most people would be suprised to see how much some of these movies can actually go for. I saw a USED Lady and the Tramp "classic" go for $375-Why, it's very rare and Disney has had an onging lawsuit (18 yrs so far) over this movie. The "classic" Little Mermaid new, in it's hayday, got 400+ for the recalled version because the artist who did the cover drew the towers to look like penises. These still go for a lot. It's the same with recalled movies and movies with a story surrounding them. Does that give you an idea?
I'm selling most of my movies between $20-50- (50- for most of the "classics" because they can't be found anymore, let alone still in their original shrinkwrap.) Very few go for more, like the Little Mermaid "classic" version- which I have several of.
Let me get off my soapbox though. This furum isn't about that. I'm willing to make deals though, as my movie $ helps to feed this new hobby
