- Hi. Me again. (I AM rgaines, I AM writing this :-) )--I sent
- away for the three-tape set, after exhausting several other means towards
- finding these episodes. Generally speaking, the quality was pretty good--
- about on a par with something taped off of cable TV. There are a couple
- of spots following where commercial breaks would go where the editing was
- a tad off, but nothing serious by any means--heck, it's just 7-Zark-7, for
- God's sake. :-) Apparently this guy sells a LOT of different tapes
- (Star Trek bloopers, the aforementioned Dr. Who, old cartoons, etc.), so
- I can't speak for their quality, but the BotP stuff was in pretty good
- condition, IMO.
