Aeon Flux VHS quality?

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Aeon Flux : One Thread

Hi, its been a long time since I watched AF on TV. Now I got the videos(1 and 3, Misson Infinite is still out of stock), and found out that the picture quality for AF 1 is kinda dodgy compared to AF 3. Can I attribute it to original production issues, or the fact that the tape is dodgy and I should return it?(I bought them at the local Borders)

Was the AF1 tape in used condition, or new? If used, the picture may have deteriorated from being played. Otherwise, the picture quality should be equal to #3.

Bugger. its new. at least it was shrink wrapped as new. I'll bring it back tomorrow. Thanks!

I actually broke the cassette housing my copy of AF before I wore out the tape itself - guess I'm hard on videos. I used a particularly underhanded dodge to replace it:

I helped organize a small rave during my senior year at college. The DJ was taking requests for videos to play in the crash room, so I suggested AF. He dutifully bought the vid; during the wee hours of the party I swapped my broken-case copy for his shiny new tape.

Ain't I a stinker?
