Condition reading
Photo-reviewed only: visible fold lines, glare/reflection, waviness, edge and corner wear, surface scuffs, handling marks, tape shadows, or kit creases may be present. The August 6, 2026 catalog image was cropped to the visible collectible edge so surrounding table, floor, holder, and support surfaces are excluded where the source photo allowed. No restoration, backing, content-completeness, tear, or paper-grade claim is made without an in-hand inspection.
Before checkout is enabled, the owner still confirms dimensions, availability, packing, shipping, insurance, and final condition language for the shown item. Additional original copies, when available, are confirmed separately.
Price basis
Current August 6, 2026 public scan found sparse exact completed-sale evidence for this specific video-store format, so this is a conservative owner-review preview ask based on title demand, format specificity, actual-item photography, visible condition, and Discount Video provenance. This is not an appraisal.
Use the price as a buyer-facing ask and compare it against title demand, format scarcity, studio or label interest, genre lane, and visible wear. The number is not an appraisal; it is a practical starting point for owner-reviewed sale conversation.
