New and sealed for $7.50.
I got it at the Pathmark in Edison, NJ. Not the one off of Route 1. The other one in Edison that just opened up not too long ago. It used to be a Shop-Rite.
I looked around in the section where I got it, and I didn't see any more. Sorry NJ CAGers. But if you're in the area, it wouldn't hurt to look, I guess. I hear the DVD's hard to find now.
It's really good. It's got the unaired "I wish I had a Jew" episode and Road to Rhode Island! It's also got this short American Dad cartoon. Steve is really different in that one. Different voice and overall geekier look.

it isn't rare....
I think Wal-Mart dropped these to $10 or so a while back, but yeah, it's not hard to find.
And that was the pilot for American Dad, so the actual show hadn't been finalized yet.

It's not rare? I could've sworn I read here that it's rare.
In any case, it's still $2.50 less than what a used one goes for at Gamestop. That's got to count for something.

Uhh, ok. Ive seen it numerous times for less then $10. If you already have the series on DVD this is useless unless you just HAVE to hear that one line.

You got a sealed DVD for half off retail, don't feel bad at all, you didn't get ripped off, if you ever didn't want it, list on ebay as mint and complete with a picture showing case, dvd, and insert, and you'll sell it for $10 easily.

Considering many just ended for $5.99 with no bids, I would say no. That does not take into account the time of taking a picture, listing it, paying the fees for that, paypal fees, packaging the dvd, mailing it....etc.

I'm just speaking from my previous experience, I turn most DVD's at about $10 after shipping. It helps if you sell worldwide too. I just don't want the buyer to feel too bad, he didn't get ripped off exactly, considering he got to watch it that night and didn't have to wait on shipping or some crazy price match, he got a good deal

Its not a bad deal, and he's happy, so thats what matters. Just don't get his little head filled with dreams of selling a 2 year old DVD for $10. Hell I can't even sell a recent release 2 weeks after it comes out for 1/3 of its price thanks to all the bootlegs that ebay does nothing to stop.

Good thing I saw both of those episodes on TV.

Well, the "unaired" episode has been since shown on television, but it was cut. This probably isn't exact, since it's been a while, but in the DVD:
"Even though they killed my Lord"
In the TV version:
"I don't think they killed my Lord"
Those are lyrics in the song Peter sings. IIRC, that's the only difference between the episode on the DVD and the one on television. So, if the line matters to you, then the DVD is the only way to go.
