    Stores selling Series 1 VHS Note! The prices recently dropped for the US Series 1 VHS from $70 to around $10 for many places that sold these videos.

    There were other stores in the list, but these are so cheap now it is not worth it to research every one.

    You can sometimes find them dirt-cheap in the used-bin at local Blockbuster stores, or you can call 1-800-800-6767 and they will search the closest stores to you with them in stock, or you could try this link:
