Have you ever ordered from cheesyflix.com? I understand that you can order individual MST3K movies. If you happen to know anything about this, I'd like to hear.

Or I will simply insert trout into rectum.

That site is a rip off. You can find people selling DVDs of MST3K episodes/seasons (not released by Rhino) for far cheaper.

EDIT: Someone posted this link awhile back in an MST3K thread. http://www.valuemst3k.com/

I really want to use these guys to rebuild my collection. Has anyone here have any feedback on them good or bad?

Yes, I can definitely recommend him. I order the season 1 and 2 sets and they cam ein about 5 days.They are bare bones. Each episode is on its on dvd with a standard clear plastic dvd case (the blank dvd kind ). The actual quality of the copies is quite good especially like almost all seasons it is A+ quality. Season 1 is A quality and is just good watcheable but not great. If you use google check out you can get two free episodes or the bonus materials stuff. I got the night at the oscar DVD the MST3K guys had done over the year free and it is pretty good.

No, this has been approved by the MSTK guys.

I'm curious since I'm tempted to order an entire set.

Wow, you'd think the folks that owned the actual movies would want a piece of the pie. This is great. I had a ton of episodes on VHS and they got lost at college circa 1989. :(

All Joel, of course.

Well, I think that's where the sticking point is. The folks that owned the movies do want a piece of the pie. That's why there are Rhino releases only every so often- it takes time to get the money to pay for a few more movies. So that's why these aren't exactly legit copies...

I went to this site and ordered 15 episodes:

hxxp://www.valuemst3k.com/

The DVDs came in short order, and I tried one out (Swamp Diamonds) and the quality is good. Just remember the source is not HD or anything, so that's the limiting factor. But the sound is great.

Tracking numbers were provided quickly. I used Google Checkout to get the two free episodes. The only minor disappointment is he simply scribbled the episode # on each white DVD sleeve. His stuff was $20 less, though how hard is it just to write the episode name?

With all that being said, I do recommend the guy.

BTW, what's for dinner? Tuna wiggle.
