20 x EASTERN ACTION VHS TAPES.
Location: North West England - Warrington
Swap Value: £25-£50
Description:
20 x EASTERN ACTION / HEROIC BLOODSHED / SAMURAI SWORDPLAY / ACCLAIMED CINEMA - VHS TAPES.
An exceptional cross-section of award-winning Chinese, Japanese and U.S. Asian Cinema.
Most of these titles are hard or very hard to find in this country on ANY format (some have not been released on DVD), and some of them are very rare to find anywhere on any format.
All these tapes are in mint condition.
I would like to sell this bundle altogether really (hence the very good price for buying all 20 tapes).
