I have a dismal dollar DVD I'll let go at 1/8000th of that price!

Imagine what this person would charge for some Al Joy or William Pizor comedies.

Imagine what he would charge for a cut-down of [i]Where's The Fire?[i]

I do notice he's brought the asking price down from $4,000 to a far more reasonable $1,299.95.

If you read the seller's description, you'll discover that it is a Roach feature, and it has never been released on DVD or VHS. Obviously, that kind of exhaustive research deserves a hefty payday.

Speaking as a professional advertising copywriter, you have to read exactly what he says...

"I Don't BELIEVE this was Ever Released on US DVD's nor VHS"

"I haven't seen any other one of these in Years being put up for sale anywhere."

I hope his buyers possess as much apparent ignorance as he does...
