I have been discovering titles on IAFD.com that are not available on DVD, but are on VHS. I have never bought VHS via the internet or mail order. I guess I am worried about what my position would be if a broken tape arrived, one with no sound, etc., (These experiences happened to my cousin back in the early 1990's when he ordered some tapes over the phone from ads placed in a magazine. And, yes, I really do have a cousin and he is not me[:p)]).

Can anybody relate recent experiences, both good and bad, purchasing titles on VHS through the companies listed on IAFD?

I am most interested in Classic titles that are not available on DVD. Any suggestions?

Thanks!

The "companies" listed on the IAFD are the studios/distributors that produced the movies, not particularly retail sources.

Nowadays, many studios also sell their products directly to the consumer as well. Typically, they price themselves higher than most online e-tailers. One very strong point to keep in mind is that buying from the producer directly is often one of the only ways to guarantee getting original VHS movies (not bootlegs)!

IMPORTANT: read this ADT thread for a first step towards locating classics on DVD.

Hi Bigfoot, I've had good experiences with Jaded Video purchasing classic videos but it is a good idea to contact them first with regards to any titles you're interested being in stock before placing any orders. Best of luck!
