I love to collect DVDs and so does my boyfriend.  Together we probably own close to 1000 movies.  Have we spent $20,000 on these movies?  No.  In fact, some of these DVDs have been really cheap, costing under $1.  You may find that hard to believe, but you can find DVDs for really cheap, if you know where to look.  Here are seven great places to find cheap DVDs.




Amazon Marketplace:  I have found several DVDs on Amazon Marketplace.  Some of these movies have only cost $0.01!  Talk about cheap.  Granted these are not new DVDs, at least not in most cases, though I have found a couple new movies for only a couple bucks.  You do need to be mindful of descriptions and make sure the DVDs are in good condition and come with the case.  Also check the seller’s feedback.




Half.com:  Another place where you can find DVDs for mere pennies is Half.com.  You can find just about any DVD you want and get them really cheap.  Again, you will need to be mindful of the description of the DVD and be sure to check the seller’s feedback. 




EBay:  Most of the time, you will only find DVDs on EBay for $5 and over, but that’s still a great price.  The advantage of EBay is having pictures of the item you are bidding on and more thorough descriptions.  Be very cautious when shopping on EBay and make sure to choose DVDs that come with cases and artwork and DO NOT purchase DVDs that come from Hong Kong or claim to have foreign writing on the case.  Check the seller’s feedback making sure other buyers have not claimed to have received copies.

Amazon Marketplace is a favorite place of mine as well for DVDs and CDs. The steals you can find on there are endless. I would also recommend Pawn Shops... you can usually find some really great discounted DVDs there as well. The only downside is that sometimes the shops seem kind of shady, but at least you get to see the items you're buying.
