Anyone want to trade Seinfeld episodes on VCDs (3 episodes per disc, VCD standard 2.0 playable on CD/DVD-ROMs or stand-alone DVD-Players)? I have almost all episodes (approx. 150) and would like to exchange them for other series, i.e. Friends, Walking with Dinosaurs etc

I am sorry, but really I don't want to *sell* something what does not belong to me, and I got it for free from tv anyway.

I have received quite a few letters asking the same question as Adam. Let me explain: I do like Jerry Seinfeld very much (altough I never met him as a "person" and my liking him is based on his tv image and show, but whatever) and I don't feel like I want to steal from him by selling copies of his excellent show. I do understand it is so frustrating for some of you Seinfeld fans that there is no VHS or DVD show-library available to buy, but... what can I say more? I'm not a thief, and if you're patient enough (I was)it'll take about 8-10 months of recording show's syndicated re-runs... and [address]'ll have it too!

I just hope NBC or Sony will smarten soon enough and will release this show on DVDs before we all get our first retirement checks from govt...

Anyway - my VCD collection is made of 61 discs (3 episodes of show per disc plus "Live on Broadway" post-seinfeld 98' broadcast on HBO) and even if I would like to sell copies of it just at a cost of a blank cd-r + shipping... you do the math - most likely you would buy cheaper DVD-set of Seinfeld than what it'll come to (I mean when it'll be finally released on DVDs ;)

My VCD/VHS trade offer is (was) targeted to people who already have most of this show's episodes in their possession and need just few discs/episodes to have it complete. My collection is also not as "complete" as i wish it could (I still have few horrible quality episodes I'd like to replace with better quality ones). I am sorry to disappoint some of you who already wrote to me (I'm sorry, but I wasn't able to reply to all of you), but not even for a second I expected such a big email response to my post. If I knew it before, I would edit its text so it'll be more clear that I am not a "copy-pirate" as some of you expressed their thoughts.

Since it is still beginning of a New Year - I Wish to all of you (and myself as well) that finally we will be able to buy during this year some complete set of "Seinfeld Chronicles" on DVD or VHS released at any region or system.
