Posted November 2, 200520 yr comment_3815051 Anyone pick up September's OVW TV DVDs? I figure since they sell DVDs now they might have found their way into someone's collection. As good as Heyman's booking can be, it's hard to justify $25 for 2 discs when you guys usually offer better deals.
November 2, 200520 yr comment_3815336 If you ever find a deal involving OVW DVDs, I want in on it. Especially for the period from 2000 to about 2003 when they had a bunch of talent there that was really good like Rico, Cena, Nick Dinsmore, Damaja, Machine (Doug Basham), etc.
November 2, 200520 yr comment_3815516 I have one month of 2003 OVW TV, but if you want to go in on a bulk from somewhere reliable, I'll help out.
November 2, 200520 yr comment_3818139 I'm thinking we should do an OVW bulk buy sometime, starting with 2001 (?? -- not sure the best time to start) and then moving forward chronologically.
November 2, 200520 yr Author comment_3819080 I had one guy offer to sell me the DVDs and one guy offer to trade. He wanted the nWo and Chris Benoit DVDs for them, and I told him I could do Benoit-for-OVW since that's 2 DVDs as well. He hasn't replied yet.
November 2, 200520 yr comment_3822427 In my case, I do have 6 months of OVW but I don't have the time or the inclination to pull out the commercial gaps (and in some cases, the bad commercials). I've got 2 months from 2000 (August and September, I think) as well as the first 4 months of 2001. If Helmet would care to do the heavy lifting on this, I can send him these 6 tapes at some point for him to work with.
November 3, 200520 yr comment_3823442 Normally I wouldn't mind but there is no way I can commit to it right now. I am what you call... in the weeds.
November 3, 200520 yr comment_3823564 Unfortunately, I can't do it also. Between a new work schedule, writing that I need to do, and another person I'm converting for, I don't have the time.
November 3, 200520 yr comment_3823954 Beginning of December, if not sooner. It's a birthday present I'm not being surprised on. And if for some reason I don't get it (although I know I am), I'll buy it myself. I want to get it now, but I'd end up hurting feelings if I did, so I'm waiting.
November 3, 200520 yr comment_3824047 Ok, a few things about DVD converters. brian, Some Guy, teke and myself all use Panasonic models. When talking to Dan Ginnetty, the best brands he has heard responses on are Panasonic and JVC. The quality of your VCR also affects the transfer. Another tning you need to know is that the perfect transfer for 2:45 is a myth. Stick with 2:00 mode. And whatever you do, get a warranty.
November 4, 200520 yr Author comment_3830962 Just to tie up the loose ends, I ended up making the deal with the guy to trade for the September OVW shows. I thought he was blowing me off but it turned out he's in CA and it was a time zone thing.
November 4, 200520 yr comment_3831364 I am working something out right now with a Crazy MAx guy to get a huge chunk of last year's and early this year's TV tapings. I am going to pick up a couple of samples to see if it is worth pursuing.
November 4, 200520 yr comment_3834058 No need. I have just got a hookup (the guy who sits in the same room as me at work) who has an uninterrupted run of OVW TV from late 2001 to present.
