Where to buy Disney movies?

I am looking for Disney movies. I checked e-bay for a lot but there isn't too much on there. Any suggestions? Anyone looking to sell any? Chat Icon

My mom gets a lot of them for DS at Barnes and Noble actually, she is a member, so they usually are discounted.

You mean the ones that are currently "in the vault?"

I think we got ours off of Ebay, but I know you said you werent having luck there.

When we cant find them on DVD, we settle for the VHS (also from ebay) because the kids tv has a dvd player and vcr. The quality is terrible but they dont really know the difference.

What do you mean "in the vault"? As in no longer being made or sold? Is that why they are so expensive????

I have a BUNCH on VHS. Time to bust out the VCR I guess Chat Icon

I just bid $50 for 9 good ones on e-bay but I am sure I'll be outbid in a minute or 2.

I'll keep checking e-bay and even yard sales maybe.

Thanks! Chat Icon

They "retire" movies to the vault and you can no longer get them in stores. I've been finding those on eBay. There are a bunch of current ones available in stores, but a lot of the classic ones are already in the "vault". But, they may be re-released out on blu-ray.

Keep browsing ebay!!!! we got like 45 movies for around $250. They are in GREAT shape, original inserts etc. and came with beauty and the beast, aladdin, mulan, lion king, the incredibles, monsters inc., little mermaid, ice age etc. etc. There are maybe 6 or so movies that we arent really going to watch but you never know!

Yeah some of the originals - they take them out of circulation and don't sell them. They re-release them every once in a while (they call it coming out of the vault) usually digitally remastered. I think Beauty and the Beast is the next one. Sleeping Beauty was just out but I think they might have already stopped selling it.

We're Disney freaks so we try to stay updated on whats coming out so we can get a good copy Chat Icon
