  Wow, that set looks awesome.
  
  Since you've made this, you should just change it to a For Sale/Want To Buy thread for everyone or something. Not sure if that's against the rules or not, but I think it would be cool.

  Thats a great looking set. I've got a VHS set of Dr No through the TWINE, but it does not have these particular covers.

  My cousin has this set, I'll ask if he wants to sell.

  I still have this set, though it's not for sale.
  
  Bear in mind that these were VHS tapes, and how the passage of time might have ravaged the film, good luck with finding a watchable set. I have not bought a VHS tape for about two years, it as Starflight One, and the quality was decent enough, enough for me to dub it onto DVD.

  Thank you very much! I'll pay good money for them.

  Yes, it´s very hard to find. I allready have a set that works, but it does'nt look half as good as these.
  The ones I have look's like this: https://www.google.se/search?newwindow=1&biw=1366&bih=667&tbm=isch&sa=1&q=Swedish+James+Bond+VHS+set&oq=Swedish+James+Bond+VHS+set&gs_l=img.3...17886.26374.0.26503.27.18.0.9.9.0.177.2193.1j16.17.0....0...1c.1.48.img..8.19.1393.NGdGaVpEo2k#facrc=_&imgdii=_&imgrc=2sPKu8Pa6cE7YM%3A;WPT5sGjVrVZlxM;http%3A%2F%2Fwww.007collector.com%2Fbond%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2013%2F01%2Fvhs_bond-cover-german.jpg;http%3A%2F%2Fwww.007collector.com%2F%3Ftag%3Dwarner;567;342

  I have that set myself. Looks great on the shelves. Alas, it's not for sale I'm afraid. However, after a quick search the are a few for sale on ebay (UK) if any help?

  This is the set I had as a kid - minus the box. I had them all when they were released individually. I remember the GE release had a reversible cover - the traditional poster artwork on one side, the series artwork on the other. Good old days.

  My first Bondfilm was DAD on VHS. I loved it back then... I was young and stupid...

  I was 11 when I walked out of DAD in theaters, my first Bond film at the cinemas. You should've seen how impressed and giddy I was. "OMG DID U SEE THE PART WHERE HE WAS FLYING BY THE ICEBERG THINGS? UGH SO COOL THEN HE HAD AN ELECTRO SUIT AND THEN SHE WAS ALL 'YO MAMA' AND LIKE THE INVISIBLE CAR AND STUFF?!"

  I'm not sure what was worse, the fact that it was my first Bond film in theaters, or the fact that I had many restless nights after, eagerly awaiting its release on DVD.

  The trailer I remember starts the same, 'Looking for a little piece and quiet? Didn't think so.', but the rest is different. Here's the one I was thinking of:

  Never actually seen the one I posted before.

  With the blue ray DVD boxed sets out, it is difficult to go back and watch one of my old VHS Bond films. I only own a few (GF, DAF, LTK, AVTAK)
  
  I still own a VHS player but eventually these may go the route of the 8 Track players. If they haven't already.

  If anyone wants to buy the box set of that, there's an Oxfam in London selling it for £20 if you want to PM me.
