amazing how much stuff ( htf), this guy had that I got in 1 hit, i'm still shaking.

Man, Eddie, I'm speechless. That's an incredible haul! I think I would have passed out if I had discovered that motherlode.

Let me know when you start taking offers :)

Thanks MR. Purple, yeah man, I almost did pass out as you know the feeling when you walk into a place your not familiar with and look around the room and see, shelf after shelf of very rare tapes, I think when all is said and done I scored like 43 Unicorn tapes in one haul , along with all kinds of other tapes, over 40 video latino', tooo much to mention as I need to do more research on some of these titles that TRUTHFULLY, I've never even heard of. Plus, because he had so much stock, I put MORE unicorn tapes on the side till he finds the tapes that go with the boxes as the numbers on his old stock changed twice as he moved from one location to another. To top it off, there are still 100's of rare bigbox spanish sleaze tapes on the shelves of this place, so Im going back this weekend w/ a large truck to clean 'em out! Its just still even mind boggling to me as It is def. the biggest hit I ever made in a single hit! eddie

Yeah I can fully understand how you feel. So, was this guy a collector or someone who had a shop, was it a video rental?

The place was at one time a vhs rental shop, now its just a vcr and tv rpair shop going out of business. He had no idea what was on the shelves as the only thing on his mind was he was going to make some money. In fact, I was in the shop for over 6 hours loading up my haul w/ him as we talked about the good ole days of vhs and because the area I was in was a spanish community w/ ALMOST no english speakin people, he just could not understand Why I wanted sooo many old spanish video tapes. To him, they were like junk ...and that's what makes the hunt soooo insane, very few people here in the usa know the value of these tapes...which makes these scores not as rare as one might think, Although, this was one SICK hit for sure.

Huge congratulations!

Thank you Bill, (From you that is the ultimate complement for sure). Yes, it was a surreal feeling that I just won't shake for a few more days. And thank you for turning me onto spanish cult and horror classics. Your the man when it comes to these kind of films and thats what drives me to go into some very scarey areas to find these tapes. I think one of the reasons there is still so much on the shelve's at this particular location is because 'Most People' would be affraid to even step foot in the area. Anyway, that's a book to be wriiten down the road for sure. Again, thank you my friend. Eddie

Hehe!!

Yes I know the feeling. Back in the late 80's and early 90's I used to visit Spanish/Puerto Rican/Mexican video shops in some very scary neighborhoods. The owners always wondered what I was doing there. Sometimes a "gang" would show up and confront me. Good thing they were friendly when I showed them I was willing to spend some nice money at the store. Those were the days!

And you did it 10 yrs. before I even began taking day trips to some of these... ALMOST... out of reach locations. I am truly amazed. Mucho respect Mr. Knight:)
