Is $100 a good price for the series?

[DataLives]

Greetings,

I am being offered all three seasons of the Original Series for $100.

They are the unenhanced versions, but those are the ones I want to own.

Is this a good price? It seems so, looking around on Amazon and Ebay.

Tell me!

I think so. Generally a season of any tv show goes for about $40-$50, so you'd normally be looking at $120-$150. Assuming they are good quality I'd say go for it! (Oh, I'm talking in Aussie dollars here.)

 

[Captain Robert April]

It's pretty good in US dollars, too.

I spent $145.00 on my set, so $100.00 is a great price!

 

[Ziz]

That works out to $33 a season, which is on par with what every other TV series season box set goes for.

Personal opinion - anything over $40 a season is too much no matter how popular the show is/was, and even then, at $40, it better be a full 20+ episodes, not these 6 or 13 episode mini-seasons that have cropped up over the past few years.

Unless you're buying in New Zealand where the average consumer pays through the nose to tight-fisted arsehole wholesalers...

I paid an average of $45 per season of TOS' 3. $135- rather steep IMO, but for the remastered eps I *NEEDED* to get, I'm not unsatisfied.

Makes ya appreciate Warner Home Video and their perennial season set sales, enabling one to get seasons of Babylon 5, Buffy, Angel, Smallville, etc., for only twenty bucks.

Really.
But I already have Buffy!

A few years ago season 1 (non-remastered) was just over $100 Canadian ( which would've been about close to $90 US)...so I say get it!!

Yes, that is quite good, but if you have Blu-ray you may want to hold off a few weeks to see what the complete 3 season set actually goes for vice what it being advertised at.

Greetings,

I just picked it up. I have a bag full of Trek at my office now and I need to stash it until Christmas.

I got the complete DS9 series too.

I do not have HD, Blue Ray, etc. We have rabbit ears and a tube television. We watch DVDs on our PS2.

I am a Luddite Trek watcher. I know. What gives?

Thank you for all of your input!

Considering that they originally sold for $100.00 apiece, you are definately getting a deal.

 

[Neutral Zone]

I'm not up on the $ to £ rates are but from here it looks a decent deal and no matter what you watch them on just enjoy!

 

[Jeri]

I just got Seasons 1 & 2 on blu-ray for $57 each and Season 3 for $52 at Amazon. It's their Black Friday sale: 55% off.

One and two arrived today; three is coming in December.
