Subject: Help!!! Please!!! with movie ?

Written By: Hairspray on 10/14/2000 at 11:24 p.m.

Where would I be able to find this VHS tape, "Free to be you and me", in decent condition? New or previously viewed.
Can't seem to find it anywhere on the net.
The one I did find was $150.00!!! I don't want to mount it or display it, for heavens sake! Collectors can sometimes suck that way. Anyways, I just want to purchase it for the viewing enjoyment of children. Does anyone have any info?
Your help would be truly appreciated.
Hey, Thanks in advance.

That particular video is long out-of-print, Hairspray - meaning it's no longer made. (Although the soundtrack is still available.) To be blunt, like it or not, because it's still very much in demand, the current market value of that video seems to fall in the $75-$150 range. (You can check on eBay as well.) Not sure exactly what you meant by the statement, "collectors can sometimes suck that way," but obviously there are a lot of women out there willing to pay that price, and I'm sure their reason for wanting the video isn't to "mount it or display it", either! Sometimes if you want something the easy way (in this case, through the 'net), you either gotta fork over some $$$, or just learn to do w/o. And clearly, that video is not worth that much to you...

Oh, Clearly.
What's up with your attitude? You sound like a disgruntled collector yourself, or else you wouldn't have gotten so defensive. Don't blame me for taking it this way. If you had nothing helpful to say, why did you even bother posting to my message? I don't even want to know. Forget it.
