MST3K on DVD (online store rec)
Since I'm online right now, I thought I'd share this website. A few months ago, I wanted to get some Joel MST3K episodes that have never been released on DVD. I decided to order from CheesyFlix.com. I was slightly nervous because the site also goes by the slightly different name of Cheepnis.com, and when you go to it, the actual URL is www.cupandblade.com. However, the site was well-maintained and had updates going back years, so I decided to take a chance.
The 10 MST3K episodes we bought are in pretty good condition with decent menus, and we haven't had any problems playing them in our DVD players. They're all transfers from tapes that are several years old, so there are occasional moments where there's a glitch, but it's never bad enough to be irritating. CheesyFlix keeps it cheap by not including any artwork, but we paid a little extra to get labeling printed on the DVDs, and it's quite well done and looks professional. The site also sells a DVD of covers, if you want to buy cases and print covers to make the DVDs look pretty on your shelf. They've gone to the trouble of finding actual promo posters from the films' original releases to use on the labels and covers, which is hilariously great.
The DVDs are $6 each, but the site gives discounts for purchasing 10 or more, and if you create an account, they give additional discounts when your total purchases hit certain dollar amounts. They also sell cheesy non-MiSTied movies, and old radio shows, if those interest you. And they offer free shipping on U.S. orders over $40.
So if you, like me, have a desperate need to own a copy of Agent Double 007, a.k.a. Operation Kid Brother, starring Neil Connery, I highly recommend checking them out.
