Question to the experts: I found two odd reels from Derann's "Grease" for sale, specifically reel 4 and reel 6 (of a total of 7, if I'm correct). They seem rather well priced. But how lucky would I have to be to find the remaining 5 reels? I'm a bit undecided... I might always buy them, and if I find a complete print, I might sell the odd reels... but do odd reels sell well?

So I'm just collecting opinions... would you buy the two reels?
Thx, people...

If it's a film you like and intend to buy feature length,I would
definately buy them,remember accidents do happen,and if the
unthinkable did, it would be nice to have a spare with which
to replace a damaged section.

Certainly worth a thought, but then the accident would have to happen on reel 4 or 6 [Wink]
