Very disappointing. On the plus side: the items ordered turned up fairly quickly, and were the titles ordered, which is the best I can say about them. On the negative side: An outfit that does not appear to care about its customers nor its reputation, sending out films that have poor source material, and with barely legible hand writing all across the discs. Looks to me like a 'bedroom business' run by one person. Far superior copies of the titles I ordered are currently available to watch on YouTube, so the company's website claim, and I quote - "This is the place to come for The highest quality DVDs of old classic movies. You will find that you never need to go anywhere else." is hollow. I have contacted the company to complain and to request a refund, but based on experience so far don't think that is likely to happen. My advice is: save your money by avoiding this company.

Is actually zero stats, I ordered a three pack DVD on the 14th of October. As of this review I have received nothing, all my emails and attempts at communication go ignored. I have requested a refund still ignored, I've contacted the FTC and my States AG Office but I'm probably going to have to seek legal action to get my money back. Avoid this site at all costs clearly a scam and any positive reviews have to be fake and not legitimate.

The Good with the Bad Start with the good - I finally have copies of a show I had searched months for online, can't find an official boxset anywhere. They start with 10/10 for that. The bad: The item's page on their site says this: "The Quality Rating is 9 out of 10 100% in chronological order Commercial free and unedited This box set contains all 11 DVDs with Custom Artwork." Let's go. "The quality rating is 9 out of 10" - it is in me Sandra Bullocks. I'm 7 episodes in and the best I've seen is a 3 or 4/10. All episodes are low resolution TV rips. Nothing wrong with TV rips, the standard 350MB per SD episode was perfectly fine, and I suspect that's what these are, but whatever converting they've done to burn to disc has compressed the hell out of them. Not good. "100% in chronological order" - true so far....and thanks I guess? "Commercial free and unedited" - suspect this is untrue, compressing is a form of editing. You haven't cut away any scenes, but quality was cut, and I don't know why....these are 4.7GB discs, with 4/5 eps on each....no compression necessary. "This box set contains all 11 DVDs with Custom Artwork" - well, if you consider an all white dvd surface with numbers scribbled on with a Sharpie "Custom Artwork" you're in for a treat :) Maybe there was some artistic statement about the excesses of mankind when 11 discs were shoved into 3 double-sided sleeves? A bit peeved to be honest, paid 35 bucks plus shipping for this, the seller spent (at most) 5 bucks for blank dvds, 3 sleeves and a shipping envelope, and found the video files freely on the high seas. 30 bucks profit for burning a few ISOs, handy money if the orders are coming in. But back to my original point - I now have a copy of one of my fav obscure tv shows, credit where credit's due, I'm still enjoying watching it :) Perhaps offer a download option in future though, would cost you even less to provide and customers might get higher quality vids ;)

The Discs arrived rather quickly. So far so good. Unfortunately every single disc has scratches and some of the discs even have scratches that make it impossible to watch the Show pleasantly since there are jumps every 5-10 seconds. When I asked for them in better condition, my mail mail was ignored.. never got an answer. Disappointing!

Had been looking for this Lifetime special for a while. Happy to find it through Rarefilmsondvd. DVD was reasonably priced. I received it quickly and it played well. I would purchase from these folks again. Thanks!!

Ordered 2 DVDs, one that I was hoping had a scene that may have been cut in later versions, another that is popular but unavailable on DVD. Received within 2 weeks. Happy with my purchase. DVDs come unmarked, in cases with a smaller movie image on the front, and a brief synopsis on the back. Both played well. I will use them again if needed. DVDs are moderately priced. Shipping is reasonable.

Very disappointed! Decided to obtain an old series called werewolf. I know order took a long time to arrive as in UK. However, picture quality and audio are aweful! Have to watch in a very small window so can see what is going on! Can see filmed off television. Looks like you’d be watching a VHS that’s been copied many times. Certainly will not be using or ordering from again!!
