I've never been a wild-eyed Buffy fanatic (or at least so I like to think, though I have to admit to a few more conversational references than I would normally ever dream of making to a TV show.:whiste
But I must say I think it was one of those rare TV series where they and we got lucky* and everything just clicked (even the awful acting in a couple of cases.) Much as I liked it, though (and even what seemed at the time to be the interminable re-reruns), I've never been willing to pay normal street price for the full set (let alone MSRP!) For the most part, I really just don't "do" TV series on DVD, especially not a series I saw in its entirety several times over when all was said and done... But hey, it's Buffy, and it's only $50.
And a head's up: there are a fair number of reviews complaining about banged up sets and unplayable discs. But since so few Amazon reviewers ever mention exactly which sellers they actually buy their products from, it's impossible to tell whether it's a fundamental issue with the sets "as manufactured," or whether individual sellers have shipped what should have been "obviously-flawed" sets, or maybe even counterfeits.... But for $50, I figured it's worth the chance of getting a bum set. I'll just be sure to at least run through them all quickly while I can still return the set, and would suggest that anyone else going for this do the same....
