What I'm doing is kind of strange...I bought S1 cheep at Wal-mart, then I sold a bunch of my dvds (many were vampire movies like Innocent Blood, Vampire Effect, etc. -funny, huh?) to buy S2, now I sold S1 & S2 to buy S3! Kind of like expensive rentals.
I'm gonna keep S3, though, the grainy quality of 1 & 2 was what made letting go of them possible. And it's not like I could forget what I saw.
Now I know where the Monkey Pants thing I keep seeing comes from ha ha ha ha.
After S3, I don't know what I'll do, maybe put $10 a week aside to continue? I'd have to get BS4 with AS1...

Re ebay - Just had a quick peek and there are loads of box at very reasonable prices.
I just wanted to mention that last week I bought the entire run of Buffy for $101 (INCLUDING shipping) off of EBay.
I've been so very pleased with myself ever since.And, just to add my voice to this chorus, S2 is incredible. S3 is probably better (I heart the Mayor). S4 is good. S5 is really good and has some of the best individual episodes. S6 has more of the best individual episodes. And S7... well... it had its moments.

Sorry - you're doomed to watch the whole 7 series now!
And then of course there's 5 series of Angel...

i started upon slayerfest 2005 last week, marathoning my way through every episode of buffy and angel (i already own all the dvd box sets) and just finished season 3 last night.
a lot of people talk up seasons 2 and 3 as the best and that later ones weren't quite as good, but i personally prefer the later stuff. a big part of that is probably from when spike returns to something of a regular character. i actually found myself kinda surprised that i wasn't enjoying him so much in s2 because as his role evolves he turns into my fave character in the buffyverse so don't lose hope in him. the last few moments of the ep he does in s3 hint a bit more at how much fun he becomes :)

I'll accept that there were weak moments in the later series (don't want to give anything away but are several "potential" reasons why I preferred Angel's last season to Buffy's). However, once you've sat through those first few seasons you'll be so emotionally invested in the characters that you'll have to see it through to the end.

And I can't BELIEVE the jump in quality (resolution-wise) in the third season! I wouldn't have thought switching to 35mm would make that big a difference, having worked with film myself. I guess I just never saw any of the old 16mm stuff I worked on in dvd format, probably woulda looked as bad, too.
