Any "OOP" workouts you wish you could find?

I am not looking for anything in particular at this time. I want to decrease the # of workouts that I have. But, I am careful as I might experience difficulty reacquiring a DVD. I do browse Goodwill to see if there are any hidden treasures.

For years I wanted Kathleen Anderson's Yoga in the Garden of Serenity because VFers suggested it as being similar to Erich Schiffmann's Backyard Beginner. However it was already OOP when I heard of it. However, last year I was able to borrow it through ILL and after previewing it I realized it isn't for me.

Another I have wanted for years is Ilaria's older Powerstrikes on VHS (never released on DVD), since i heard they are better to start out with. I recently (in the past few months) saw it posted on the Share the Wealth thread and I really wanted it, but the last time I did Share The Wealth, I offended the sender so badly by only doing what I had always done that I realized maybe I shouldn't bother asking anymore. All I had done was send exact postage in stamps rather than rounding up. The original poster didn't say anything to me, but posted something on another thread about it. The thing is, I was really really broke at the time, and every penny counted. Also, this was what I had always done even before I joined VF and used to tape-trade. It was also what other tape-traders did. I was really really grateful for that person's STW offer, but I realized maybe the rules have changed in a way that I don't know. I realized I should probably wait until I could afford the postage in a way that is socially acceptable.

Wow! People are different, most don't care. I have had great experiences.

I've always had good experiences too. She gave me a free DVD, so how can I be mad? I'm not really. I just realized maybe there are things to STW I don't know. I'd heard before about sending recycled envelopes, but I still do and no one has said anything. Back when I tape-traded, it was encouraged to save landfill, and we all kept tape lying around (since we were always trading.) But times have changed I guess.

In my quest to acquire Tae Bo workouts that I don't already have, I wanted to get his newer release, Tae Bo Basic and Low Impact, but it is already OOP. I even emailed customer service on the website and they said it is no longer available. I can't even find it on Amazon or Ebay

Maybe that person was having a bad day. You never can know what is going on with people. I have learned not to take things personally. I work with a lot of people and when they are nasty....that is their problem. I continue to be professional and they will usually apologize in the end. I just smile and say "I didn't take it personally"

I keep some tape on hand and I don't care how many stamps are on an envelope. In the whole scheme of things it is not important to me. I just want my DVDs to get a good home.

I want to try Gin Miller's Waltz Walk workout, or whatever it's called, just because it's Gin Miller. I can't think of any other workouts that are OOP that I want to try.

Mine are:

- The Firm Wave: Rock Solid Cardio with Kelsie
- The Firm Wave: Rock Solid Buns & Thighs with Alison
- Jazzercise Dance Hiit
- Jazzercise Burlesque

If I knew Jazzercise was not going to keep making their workout DVDs available I would have get them during the Collage OOBS.
