Does anyone here have volumes of Dark Shadows that you have bought? I do, I own the 1795 storyline.

I used to videotape until several were taped over by mistake--then I started buying them in small lots that I could afford. One of our Cousins mentioned that she was selling hers to buy DVD's so I managed to purchase several volumns.

I have the early episodes thru just after Laura
appears. And I have from the appearance of
Barnabas thru half of PT storyline. All on MPI
tapes.

I bought the first VHS releases way back in 1989/90--and I added tapes as I found them in retail stores.  Finally, within the past two years (when the tapes dropped to about $10 each), I ordered through MPI volumes 93 through 200 (featuring the lead-in to 1897, followed by 1897,  Leviathans, 1970PT, 1970, 1995, 1840 and 1841PT.)  Now I'm working on the DVD releases.  (I taped off SciFi--many of which I still have if I don't own the MPI releases, but I HATE commercials and fast-forwarding through them.)

Carol, you can break the tab on the tape, so nothing else can be taped over it.

I have the whole collection of video tapes from MPI, but I still watch the Sci-Fi ones just to keep in sync with everyone.  They're great to have and do come in handy when Sci-Fi pre-empts the show, and also the times when I've accidently forgot to set the VCR. ;-)
