It's usually quite easy to tell whether DVD titles are compilations just by looking at the boxcover. But some studios like JKP use original artwork to make their comps look like a new release.

I usually buy from X Rent but they don't always list compilations as being compilations. I end up having to check DVD Empire's web site to make sure some titles aren't comps.

I've only purchased from Five Star once and they have a title that I'd like to purchase that no one else carries. How accurate are they with their comp listings??
