Don't play alot of games. My kids love to play Sorry.
Don't read alot alot but anything about sports, especially football , keeps me interested.
I am a huge horror movie fan. Can't get enough. Hope to expand my small collection here.
Hey Momo, sorry I kept you hanging on Devils Rejects, if you request it again I promise to send it right away...got tied up with work and couldnt make it to a post office last week...
hi Hostel (Unrated Widescreen Edition) sells for $0.01 on amazon would you take 6 switchbucks for it.
I'm sorry to hear you're out of the giftchain, MoMo.
Unfortunately, this might complicate things further, especially if Simon has already bought you're gift for you. Did you contact him or Rock about this?
MoMo, bud, you're killing me here, man! LMAO.
You got it the wrong way around. You're sending me a dvd. I'm not sending you one. I've already sent one to Spawnshop. You have to pick a dvd from my list to send my way. Either Bulin or Simon will be choosing a dvd from your list to send to you.
Now, do you have at least one of these dvds in your collection?
the Bad Seed (1956)
The Bloody Judge
The Brood
Criminal Lovers
fascination (1979)
Frontier(s)
Hideout in the Sun
Hollywood Chainsaw Hookers
Lady in a Cage
Lips of Blood
The Little Girl Who Lives down the Lane
Malatesta's Carnival of Blood
Malpertuis
Nude for Satan
Quiet Days in Clichy
Satanico pandemonium
Shock Waves
Singapore sling (1990)
Snake Dancer
Splatter : Naked Blood
Stalker (1979)
Women Behind Bars (1975)
If you do, choose one to send me without telling me what it is. If you don't have one of these in your collection would you easily be able to get one of them? If not, we'll have to figure something out. LMK. Cheers.
So, I see you've chosen me for the giftchain, eh? Cheers!
What you have to do now is make a dummy listing (probably an unpopular dvd that people don't have on their wishlists), set itat0, I'll request itand then you'll have my address.
If you have any questions on how to proceed from this point, don't hesitate to ask.
Lol I took skaterjason here whos list is left : Momo , Bloomberg , Simonbergeron , JMG84 ,Suekistargazer
and I think there something you misunderstood , the one you pick is not nescerely the one wholl pick you , after you there still those member who hast pick yet Sukie , Jmg , Bulin the Simon is last
lol youll get the hang of it and youll see youll get something from your wish list for dure
hey i think i may be able to hook you up with blade 2 let me see what i can do not sure yet
Hey bud , how ya doin , your turn to pic , the picking is done at the same thread were you put up your list , their still five list to pick from ( well 4 yours hasnt been pick up yet), youll have to read the posts to know who`s left
Sorry about The Devils Rejects. I mailed that to someone 2 months ago and forgot to click 'Mailed' so after the 5 days, the request was removed but he kept the movie and I wasn't credited for it and forgot about removing it from my items. I couldn't remember his name.
Hey bud , how ya doin . am pretty low on sb's about now and i cant say i have any good to trade . so no worries bout those dvd's am sure youll find another lucky sob who wants then , and like i said for Clockwork and Stendhall looking for the 2 disc editions and without Artwork i just dont request them , it's easy to find a case but original artwork is quite hard. To bad that Orangepilon guy doesnt have any artwork , I also really wanted to get my hands on that suicide club dvd.
And yes Freaks was great but i knew that before getting the dvd, i had seen it on a vhs dubbed tape once a while back. So I knew that this film was quite a underestimate hidden gem , Todd Browning's better known for Dracula ( The spanish version that was shot with the same storie and sets , is frankly quite better)but i think Freaks is his masterpeice
glad you joined our gift chain , do you have any questions about how it work
have a nice evening bud
Hi, I don't have the case for Suicide Club, all my dvds are in a big binder so I don't have cases for any of them. Do you still want the dvd?
Hey Momo how ya doing buddy . Heres the comment you miss (it`s on your page):
Lol , i was triyng to save 4 sb , seem you dint fall for it , well ive got your 22 sb ready when you are . nope i have nothing your looking for , nevert eard of Warlock moon sounds good , Oh i do have the massacre ( with all the songs on video dvd) but am keeping that one . And I think Night of the creeps is not yet on dvd
I just wanted to pop buy to thank you big time for freaks , you cant imagine how i love that flick . I did a personal thank you thread for you and Spawnshop in the horror group you probably miss it . man was i happy today went into a used store and stumble on some childhood favorites of mine real cheap 5$ each Critters 1-2-3 and i put 4 and Dr.gigles on the side
Oh during halloween and Christmas check our horror group we do a cool gift chain
hope you enjoy the rest of the summer , take care
Dirty Dancing has been mailed :). Your DC # is 9101010521297498793363 Thanks!
Sorry, but my account is on vacation mode so I'm not sending out stuff for a while... I'm not quite sure why it said Nightmare On Elm Street was avaliable... just explaining to you why I cancelled the switch. Sorry.
MoMo, I got your request for Point Break but I can't locate it. I know it's here somewhere and I will keep looking but if I can't find it in a day or two we'll have to cancel.
Hey MoMo...I got your request for Big Daddy but just want you to know that I am out of town and can't mail it until this weekend. If that is OK with you, I will go ahead and accept the switch and mail it when I get back home. If that is not acceptable just cancel ok...thanks MDV
All right, I updated my information so the new address should be the one that shows up (it's the NY one, not the NJ one). Thanks!!
Hi,
I'm not sure when you'll have time to mail the Serenity DVD. I'm in the middle of switching addresses, though...if you think it might not get here by Wednesday, could you please let me know and I'll give you my new address? Thank you so much!
Hey momo did you read my response at your last comment , am also ready fo freaks , thanks for waiting
Hey MoMo,
I am interested in trading for The Girl Next Door. Please let me know if there is anything on my list you are interested in. I have a lot of stuff. Thanks.
Rocho...I can wait for the 22 or maybe we can do an even trade. Here is a list of DVDs or CDs I want. If you have them lets talk.
Night of the Creeps, Baise-Moi, Irreversible, Narnia, The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe, Warlock Moon.
50 cents the Massacre, Linkin Parks new one or Disturbeds new one
Hey momo , got 18 sb in the bank ( it will take me another week to get more sb's ) feel like letting go Freaks at 18 sb
Lol , Thank you , and dont worry the boss doesnt mind , people reserve stuff for people all the time and so does the boss`s( Spchris and his wife Ilovestarbucks)(some do say no, but all the ones i have ask to hold it till i get enough sb`s all said yes) . when you list an item you can even mark it has available to all , to certain groups or to a specific member ( am not talking in the notes ).
Am happy you would only do this for me and bloom but i suggest you open up to other members too , you never know maybe you will have to ask another member to hold it for ya till you get enough sb`s too , Like i said it`s a common thing to ask here. It`s also pretty common to do a dvd to dvd trade here too , if you see something in someone list and he wants something from yours you just have to both put the items at 0sb reserve for each other.
Hey thanks for the comments on Macabre , it kinda was the deciding factor for me , theres so few italian film that i have seen that i ended likng i wasnt sure about it , probably would of take it if it would of bill a double bill. If you thought Unhinged suck why your you disapointed bloom dint like it. And what did you thought of Slither ( love that flick). Lookout for The signal eard only good things from it.
I had 31 sb today but just befor you put up freaks , I requested Sponge bob season 4 vol 2 for 31sb. Lol what can i say I find this children show hilarious
Hey Momo can you save me freaks till i get some sb`s , should get some in 1 or 2 weeks
Rayonix...it seems that I don't have the case for the Shinedown CD. Thought I did but it must have gotten thrown out. I have accepted the switch but if you don't want the CD thats fine. Let me know
hey , how ya doing , if you can find the other film on the Macabre dvd ill take it . LMK ( lmao i still dont get all these geeky net expressions)
Bloomy...the movie is packaged as a drive-in double feature. Macabre and A Blade in the Dark but there is only one movie on the disc...Macabre. I watched the other day and it is quite sick. It is an Anchor Bay film directed by Lamberto Bava. No pesky rental stickers.
BTW...what does LMK stand for?
Is your Macabre the recent Blue Underground release shown? If so and if it doesn't have any pesky rental stickers on it I'll take it. LMK. Cheers.
MoMo, bud, make use of your notes section. I was a little disappointed to find a rental sticker on Unhinged. Cheers.
seems you dint check the artwork box for any of your items , you should correct that , youll probably get a lot more request . So how do you find the site , your you able to get your hands on stuff you were looking for. Also if you get any more Dimension extreme let me know , have none in my collection yet. also seems to me that this year 8 films to die for from after dark festival are way better then last year , have none of those too , also if you get another copy of Inside and Frontier let me know
When you check that you have the artwork , it means that you include the paper front/back that goes in the front/back of the case . When you mark your stuff disc/case it means that youll be sending the dvd in a black case with nothing in front and in the back . You never wonder why some members check only disc/artwork , it means that they send the disc + paper with front and back image ( always original never copys) .
If you have the artwork , how did ya find broken , imay request that one
I had requested Blood feast , but back down , not really sure am gonna like it , How did ya find it , how was the score , the score factor is a big deal whne it comes to keep a horror film , I love my gore but if dont score is shit , i usually dont keep it
Hi Somedead guy and MoMo Ok sorry about the delay guys , ill make a post for both and just copy it
I see both have gotten comments with tips , and theres the forum you can check and the blog , both help athelping you out at seeing how many different traders there are here and what will suit you the most and the best way to enjoy your tradin experience , so ill just give you a couple of personal tips and opinions
1- and what to send :
the great thing about this site is that it lets is members decided if they send a dvd complete , disc and artwork or disc . Now this kinda depends on what kind of trder you are and why you have joined here .
Am a collectionor and hate unoriginal cases find them all lesser quality , so I basicly mostly always ask disc , artwork , case ( but it did happen a 2 or thee occasion that i requested without the case, but that was cuz i had some good ones lying around) and since am lazy and find it a hastle to keep jewel case or clamshells , and dont really trust them since most of my things are send out on a long journey , I always always send case disc and artwork.
Theres a lot of members ( coincidently mostly US citizens ) that send in only disc and artwork ,, mainly cuz they want to save on postal cost specially when they send to canada , some will say i`t`s all experience members who do that , thats not tru , but if you do look at their no of request they sended a lot of dvd`s .ive been here for a year now and have just send in 40 dvd`s , a lot of them by new dvd or a bunch and burned em they put the original here , i never to that ( collectionor thing again) so i have not that many things to put up , so i dont mind paying for the case to be ship
some send in only the disc , i know a couple of members that keep the case and original artworks but burned the dvd to keep , I never request disc only , without the original artwork it`s pretty useless to me , but if you used this site like a rental store that option is a good one
Fyi : some u.s members dont send to canada , some say it`s too much of a hastle and the price are too high , thats bullcrap it`s like 50 cent more , and we canadadian pay more when you send to u.s . Some will take off the case when they send to canada but leave it at the same price , again bullcrap to me
2-pricing : theres the suggestion box that always helps me figure out how much ill start asking for ( and also hom many people have it in there wish list) am not here to make a profit : lets say I i bought a dvd 6 $ so`6$ =12 sb`s , shipping to canada 1.92 us 3 $ but sometimes were i go it cost the same thing has sending to canda so lets say 4sb , but the suggestion like new is 25 sb , ill start at 25 , it doesnt get requested in a few days i lower it till i get rid of it , and sometimes i take a loss , ive gotten rid of dvd`s has low has 8sb ,
some price high some price low , when i get a request i go check their page and items if they have all higher price then mine ( or sometimes if they dont send the case like me), i ask for a dvd to dvd trade (if they have something i want) or i jsut refuse . Am not the only one who does that , that one of the reasons why i trie to always have a dvd to sell at 9sb
3-Packages :
I strongly recomend buble enveloppe , thats what i always used
4-How to save money :
I dont save on not shipping with cases but theres other way to save money here :
I always reused my enveloppes : gently cut it open , used some blank stickers to cover the writings . I trie to reused to stamps when there not stamped on
How to get cool stuff :
- the best way to get what your looking for is to make yourself a big ass wish list of all the items you what ( i have over 110 pages) The best way to find the titles your looking for is to click all that small blue link on top of the page that says : To start switching...... search there you should find everything your looking for , click wish it beneaht the tile , when someone will put it up youll get an e-mail saying it`s up , the fastest to request it mainly gets it
well that all for now , again sorry about the delay and welcome to a great site
Hi,MoMo
,Welcome to SwitchPlanet.com !!!
~~~ When you have time, please fill up your profile and items to help
other members know and more likely to switch/SWITCH with you better.
===
click HELP link above to get basic info.... === see the SP Forums link
above and go to (NewMembers) where other veteran switchers can
help answer your questions, including questions other new members have
asked.... === Some general advice up front I have gathered from other
new switchers... (1)Pricing...click on the item that you have set up to
see how other switchers price their items. (some are reasonable prices,
some are not. If none, search for similar items)... If you're LikeNew
pricing, switchers usually expect it to contain a more complete package
(disc + art + case) in LikeNew condition (not disc only )... (2)Note
only on items pricing 0,1,2 Switchbuc prices, (Unless you're making
special arrangements with the requester) I feel, an item should have a
minimum of 3 SB to cover your shipping costs. Tip: Offer deals (say,
Buy1book, Get1book!) in your (About Me) ... (3)For newbies only: You Do
Not have to feel obligated to accept any requested switch until you
feel comfortable in your first switch transaction. Be polite and
explain/reply to their profile with something like...>> I,m
new/Let me explore/I didnt know! << You can give them first
option/dibs to accept your new arrangement. ... (4)If they are impolite
(perhaps they are eager to get it), contact SUPPORT...
(5) Here's some helpful Forum tips, especially for mailing and former Pe_rf__x....

WELCOME to SwitchPlanet!!! If you haven't already, I recommend filling out your profile a bit (your country and state/province, a bit o' basic info about yourself) and mark your profile as 'Public' rather than 'Private' so that other members can get a sense of who you are - tends to increase switch requests! Another way to increase requests for your items is to ensure your account preferences are set to switch with BOTH American and Canadian members -- there are large numbers of members in both countries, and there's very little difference in shipping costs (usually less than 20 cents more than mailing domestically). Also, you may want to check out the Fast Switchbucks X 3 Promo , and I HIGHLY recommend visiting the SP Forum, especially the Getting Started - New Members section. There's many of us old-timers who've been around longer than 2 years, and we LOVE helping out new members, so don't hesitate to ask any questions you may have, either by introducing yourself in the forums (a great way to encourage people to peruse your selection of items) or by clicking the 'Reply' link above this message, which will allow you to leave a comment on my profile directly. Happy Switching!!!! Redd.
