Good point - which leads me to an interesting dilemna. Since I know I'm done with Torchwood, I'd like to own the S1 & S2 DVDs. But I'll be damned if I'm going to give any $ or apparent support (Oh, look at how many NEW watchers are buying the past season stuff)to our friends at the BBC.

Other than ebay, any ideas on how to get these without enriching BBC, RTD, et al?

Link through from Amazon and/or Amazon.uk to any parties selling them second-hand, and pick one(s) in very good or as-new condition.

That's how I'll be doing it for CoE because like a lot of people, I'll be damned if I'll give them full-price AND contribute to the sales figures for CoE.

He's sooo cute! Love da nose!

So after I posed the question about the S1 & S2 DVDs, I went onto ebay and found..uh, the S1&2 being sold for a lot more than CoE.

Hmmm...then I checked out the BBCA store.

Season 1 DVD Widescreen $67.98
Season 1 Blu-Ray $84.98

Season 2 DVD Widescreen & Blu-Ray $67.98

COE Widescreen $25.98
COE Blu-Ray $29.98

This is their own frickin store! Where you make the REAL money on TV shows

The marketplace has spoken - EPIC FAIL

To be fair, CoE is half the length of S1 and 2, minutewise. I'd have to know what a comparable 13 ep dvd goes for, as opposed to a comparable miniseries, or 6-ish episode series like Bonekickers.

Good point - let me look at the site again and see if I can find comparables.

aviv_b July 31 2009, 19:49:04 UTC

Oi! this is a tough one. But as a point of comparison on Amazon.com US ( ... )

I have already noticed this. I stared at it for ages. I was full of glee

I too want more pictures of the Ianto dolly! Someone on torch_wood posted a very funny fic they are doing with photos of all the dollies -- Jack, various Doctors, Master, Donna etc, and the next installment will feature Ianto!

Oh, I read your comment on RTD's latest interview at 'AfterElton'. At least, I think it was you, it was under the name 'WhyaWhelk'. Good for you! I'd comment there too, only I'm reluctant to register at yet another site.
