VHS sets wanted!

VHS sets wanted!
I'm trying to get complete sets of the 3 shows on VHS (or as much as is available), in both edited and uncut format, in box sets wherever applicable. The second-hand marketplace for these has been extremely frustrating, so I'm turning to you, my fellow fans, for help!
I prefer to pick up stuff in nice condition (even new), especially the box sets, but I'm willing to look at pretty much anything. Also, when it comes to Z, I'd much prefer to buy box sets over individual tapes, as I can pick up the singles on their own really easy and cheap on Amazon/eBay. As far as what I'm looking to spend, I'm hoping to keep it nominally inexpensive; i.e., I don't want to pay full retail for stuff. I've been watching these all for a couple months now, so I know they aren't worth a whole lot nowadays, and given the number of tapes I still need and the semi-limited budget I'm working with, I'd prefer to pick up what I can in as big of a lot as possible for the most reasonable price. I'm not a totally cheap bastard, though, so please hit me up and let's at least discuss!
If I'm missing something, or you have some information that will help fill out my list, please please let me know!
Here's what I need right now:

Re: VHS sets wanted!
Kinda tough to see but the Edited Version of the World Tournament has Goku, Great Saiyaman, Goten, and Trunks pictured together. The Uncut Version has the Supreme Kai and Kabito picture. You can seem them on the top shelf here.nesguy wrote:Do you have the Tournament Saga edited? I've seen them all for sale on Amazon except the Tournament Saga.

Yes, this is what I mean. I've been looking for them for the last month, but haven't come across any yet.Pokewhiz7 wrote:I think he meant the original Dragon Ball Tournament Saga. (21st TB)
Thanks for the sale list, but I want to first see if I can pick up sets/bundles before I start diving into individual tapes. Also, I'm trying to avoid tapes in "old ass" condition for now .

Anyway, I understand if you don't want them, although keep in mind some sagas (like Captain Ginyu for example, since it was only two tapes) don't have a boxset.
Re: VHS sets wanted!
I believe cards.of.doom on eBay is still selling a bunch of VHS box sets, you can find his stuff here: http://myworld.ebay.com/cards.of.doom/? ... 4340.l2559

Re: VHS sets wanted!
I have all of DBZ uncut on VHS (at least what was available uncut) mostly in boxed set form. I've been trying super hard to sell these. If you are interested let me know...

Re: VHS sets wanted!
you should post pictures of what you have then, VHS wise. I'm a HUGE DBZ VHS fan and I haven't seen to many people with a DBZ VHS collection

Re: VHS sets wanted!
Thanks for everyone's help so far. I'm just about done with my Uncut DBZ set. I've got everything in the regular series now but a Babidi Uncut box set, and hoping to close a deal for that soon. I'm still looking for sets for the movies, and I'm still interested all the box sets I have listed for Edited tapes.
So, has anyone got a picture of Edited Tournament Saga tapes? I'm starting to think there aren't any, even though they have them for every saga that follows.

Re: VHS sets wanted!
They never existed, as far as I know. Those tapes were originally only available uncut, as part of FUNimation's campaign to market the show to purists. But starting with the Red Ribbon tapes, they began doing both edited and uncut releases like they did for DBZ. Which is also the point in the show they started handling the scripts more like DBZ's, so I assume they completely changed their strategy for DB around then.nesguy wrote:So, has anyone got a picture of Edited Tournament Saga tapes?

I never heard about them going back and releasing edited "Tournament Saga" tapes later. They never even finished the show on VHS, so there wouldn't have been much time to do it.

Re: VHS sets wanted!
Thanks! That is by far the best explanation that anyone's ever given. I won't worry about tracking those down, then.
Also, I can knock a number of ones off my list. I currently have coming:
Garlic, Jr. box set uncut
A better condition Trunks box uncut
Imperfect Cell box uncut
Perfect Cell box uncut
World Tournament box set uncut
Majin Buu box set uncut
Fusion Box Set uncut
Movies box set (Cooler) uncut
I still need an uncut Babidi box set, plus a whole mess of edited tapes.
Also, Pokewhiz7, I do have a Captain Ginyu box set. It's a chipboard box like Freeza and Trunks. Mine says "Uncut Version" on the UPC, although I don't know if there was an Edited version of the box.

Re: VHS sets wanted!
u haven't heard of those before? WAY back when VHS was still a big deal, the Z-Store sold the empty box sets so fans could buy the VHS tapes and be able to put them in a box set. They did that for Captain Ginyu, Frieza, Trunks, and I THINK Garlic Jr sagas.Pokewhiz7 wrote:Please show me a picture, I have never heard of it.nesguy wrote:Also, Pokewhiz7, I do have a Captain Ginyu box set.

Re: VHS sets wanted!
So was it a starter set that you could put the tapes in? It seems pretty rare compared to the other boxsets, there isn't even one on Amazon, unless it's this, although I have a feeling that that's just someone selling the two discs together, That seems fairly pointless to me when it's only two tapes. I mean, I can understand the Frieza saga because it's long, but the Ginyu Saga is only 7 episodes.
