ISV IS NOW
BUYING USED DVDS!

Bring in your unwanted DVDs to the store and receive either cash or store credit.

Here is how it will work:
We are only looking for horror, science fiction, Asian or exploitation. Please do not bring in comedies, dramas, children's films or action movies. We are looking for cool stuff and not a bunch of junk. You can take that stuff elsewhere.


Taking in consideration the shape of the DVD…we will pay 25% of the current list price.

For example, a DVD that lists for 20.00 will be worth 5.00 in cash. A DVD that lists for 15.00 will be worth 3.75 and so on.

We believe that this is a fair price to pay and it is probably a better deal than most would offer. But once again…this depends on the shape of the disc. If you bring us beat up discs that look like they were used as coasters at a frat party…we will not buy them.


Just like we can not force you to buy anything at our store…we reserve the right not to purchase anything from you. HAGGLING AND WHEELING AND DEALING WILL BE IGNORED… SO PLEASE REFRAIN FROM IT.


You must have a valid driver's license or photo ID in order to sell us your used DVDS. This protects us from receiving anything that wouldn't be on the up and up.


We don't want ISV to become a pawn shop…it is a movie store that wants to supply the best in genre entertainment at an affordable price. There are plenty of other entertainment "pawn shops" in the city and we do not want to go in that direction.

STORE INFORMATION

Incredibly Strange Video’s Incredibly Strange Transformation

Pittsburgh, PA – February 3, 2007 – Incredibly Strange Video, offering Pittsburgh’s best selection of horror, science fiction and cult films for more than 10 years, has undergone a transformation of sorts. Not as frightening as some of the werewolf, zombie and vampire transformations in the films on the store’s shelves – but in response to a different kind of monster.

At of the beginning of 2007, owner Bruce Lentz decided to eliminate video rentals and concentrate on a sales only format. Feeling the impact of national mail order video rental services, as well as cable on-demand movies, both of which cater to the convenience factor of consumers not having to leave their homes to watch a movie, Lentz chose to regroup and come out swinging rather than roll over and die quietly.

“As one of the last of the local mom and pop rental shops, I have been hurt by new, more convenient ways to watch movies”, says Lentz. In response, Lentz has created a new direction for ISV which includes “TONS of cool used DVDs and VHS tapes...along with a new ever expanding selection of new DVDs, books, magazines and t-shirts!” The new ISV features:

A great selection of new and used DVDs for sale.
Used video buyback program.
More obscure and hard to find titles.
A fast and efficient special order program.
Rare out of print DVDs at competitive prices.
More competitive pricing on new DVDs.
More t-shirts in all sizes.
Posters and prints.
More reference books and magazines devoted to the horror and sci-fi genres.

In addition to in-store sales, Lentz offers a mail order sales service through ISV’s web site to cater to fans outside the Pittsburgh area.

Another new feature of ISV is Sunday hours, from noon to 5 PM. Lentz is kicking off the new schedule on Sunday, February 11 with a grand re-opening event featuring an appearance by Professor Emcee Square, host of WBGN-TV’s “The It’s Alive Show”, a local television show produced in the same format as the highly successful Pittsburgh favorite Chiller Theater. Lentz is credited as “horror historian” for the show, recommending the vast majority of films shown.
