TVFactFan 03-09-2007, 10:44 PM "Tony Orlando and Dawn". Found out from researching Tony Orlando and Dawn airdates and that Esther Rolle, Jimmie Walker, and John Amos made an appearance on the show. Not Together but at Different times. I can't imagine these John Amos on this Show but I can see Esther and Jimmie. i would pay BIG BUCKS for all 3 of these episods of TOAD-lol

The mistake they made was changing the format to LESS Music and more comedy

I think we BOTH know who has them, but you'll probably pay through the nose.
Zoneboy 03-11-2007, 01:31 AM I think we BOTH know who has them, but you'll probably pay through the nose.
Sounds like the clown that wanted to sell me a 2 hour dvd of Death Valley Days for $40. :mad:
TVFactFan 03-11-2007, 01:32 AM I think we BOTH know who has them, but you'll probably pay through the nose.
No he doesn't have them I already checked, another guy has them but doesn't sell. If he did I would pay up to $80 Dollars-lol
Brian Damage 03-11-2007, 01:33 AM No he doesn't have them I already checked, another guy has them but doesn't sell. If he did I would pay up to $80 Dollars-lol
You're crazy! Are they original airings with commercials?
TVFactFan 03-11-2007, 01:33 AM Sounds like the clown that wanted to sell me a 2 hour dvd of Death Valley Days for $40. :mad:
is Death Valley Days something you can get from Amazon.com or Best Buy?
Brian Damage 03-11-2007, 01:34 AM Sounds like the clown that wanted to sell me a 2 hour dvd of Death Valley Days for $40. :mad:
That sounds like the guy. lol
TVFactFan 03-11-2007, 01:36 AM You're crazy! Are they original airings with commercials?
No-lol See Brian you have to understand that if it's something that no one else has and you can't get it from the stores, then PAYING is not a problem. I have a guy who buys shows from me every month because I maintain of collection of shows he can't get anywhere else-lol
Zoneboy 03-11-2007, 01:37 AM is Death Valley Days something you can get from Amazon.com or Best Buy?
All I know is that maybe less than 20 out of over 500 episodes have been officially released and only on VHS. They usually turn up in discount stores such as Biglots or on Ebay. I haven't tried Amazon but it couldn't hurt.
Brian Damage 03-11-2007, 01:38 AM No-lol See Brian you have to understand that if it's something that no one else has and you can't get it from the stores, then PAYING is not a problem.

I guess I understand, but 80 bucks?!? That's a tad too steep.

Ok because I was going to say that sometime you have to put out the money for something Rare
TVFactFan 03-11-2007, 01:42 AM I guess I understand, but 80 bucks?!? That's a tad too steep.
If it's something I really want to see 80 bucks is nothing. John Amos and Esther Rolle, two of my favorite actors of all time appeared on one of my favorite Variety shows from the 70's so I' willing to pay that MONEY!!!!!!!!!!_LOL I found out Esther Rolle was singing with Joyce and Telma on stage, I want to see that BAD!!!!!!!!!!!!
Brian Damage 03-11-2007, 01:42 AM Ok because I was going to say that sometime you have to put out the money for something Rare
If you'd pay $80 for that, what would you pay for Checking In??? lol
Zoneboy 03-11-2007, 01:43 AM Ok because I was going to say that sometime you have to put out the money for something Rare
You're right about that, I did have a chance to get 120 episodes from someone on ioffer for $35 but after getting the info to pay him, He suddenly stopped all communication and that was a month ago.
TVFactFan 03-11-2007, 01:44 AM If you'd pay $80 for that, what would you pay for Checking In??? lol
If only one person had checking in on a old beta tape in their basement and they were willing to sell it to me which would ,make me the only trader with the show, probably $300
Brian Damage 03-11-2007, 01:46 AM If only one person had checking in on a old beta tape in their basement and they were willing to sell it to me which would ,make me the only trader with the show, probably $300
Wow, thank goodness I got out of trading. You should seriously consider it too. The FBI is cracking down big time!
TVFactFan 03-11-2007, 01:50 AM Wow, thank goodness I got out of trading. You should seriously consider it too. The FBI is cracking down big time!
I don't have any prices listed on my websites so I'm cool-lol
Zoneboy 03-11-2007, 02:15 AM No i never had the Nostalgia Channel
I used to have it when I had a 12ft dish but since switching to directv, I haven't been able to get it. I wish I'd taped Tony Orlando and Dawn along with the Leslie Uggam's show when I had the chance. :wallbang
