'''NOTICE: Do not add a title unless you have a copy for yourself that comes from a different duplicator than expected. If you add one based solely on eBay information, and I buy the listing in question and find out otherwise, the offending party will be blocked for one week. I get enough trouble just trying to acquire videotapes without being misled. Yours truly, The Proprietor'''
