Topic: Some Year End Totals...

[hal9g]

This has been the smallest year for me since I started collecting in 2000.  My retirement in early 2010 has taken its toll on this pastime, for sure.

Total purchases of movies and TV Seasons - 112 (2010 - 92; high: 2008 - 483)
Purchase price - $985.52 (2010 - $1746.07; high: 2008 - $6283.11)

First Purchase


The Romance Collection

Smallville: The Final Season

Last Purchase ^

I don't keep track of purchase price for my movies (lest my wife should ever discover that grossly obscene total) but I do know I added 1,140 dvd movies or sets to my collection this year. My Bluray statistics are kind of suspect but I am certain I have acquired well over 600 Blu-Rays in 2011 as I currently sit at 901 in my collection and I only started collecting them around the 4th quarter of 2010.

A total of 329 purchases, maybe I'll do a split of those later.

First

Mars Attacks!

Last

The Devil's Double

I just realized at Christmas that I didn't spend a single nickel on DVDs this year

[Najemikon]

You stole them?

Some orders are still not delivered, but the total purchases in 2011 is 225, which made this the year with most purchases since I started collecting . (Although, looking at that phpDVDProfiler chart makes we wonder if there is a problem somehow, since 2009 is shown with less than half of that (109), which seems a bit low ) More than half of my purchases in 2011 were Blu-rays.

I managed to buy nothing throughout February, July and August.

First: Apocalypse Now (Three-Discs Full Disclosure)

Last: Godzilla (The Criterion Collection) [pre-order]

Possible since a lot of movie moved to 2011 from me too when I create a custom identifier. Maybe there is a bug that reset the purchase date when we move them

I was thinking more like an incomplete update or something like that... I hope it's not actually changed in the profiles. I'll have to check it out again within DVD Profiler itself.

You can also check if you have any conditionals in the localsiteconfig.php. For examply I only count profiles that have a purchase price > 0.00 to filter out all child profiles of TV sets.

I do indeed have a bunch of conditions in effect, thanks or the pointer!

However, I double checked in DVD Profiler and it seems reasonable. Looks like 2009 was the one year I actually managed to cut down my purchases

I know it is not quite time to post this yet.... but since I just today got the chance to put in the database query plug-in. That is when I looked at the dreaded totals... but I must admit... i found myself more proud of how well I done more then anything else.... in a big part thanks to all the great friends I have giving me DVDs...

Total SRP: $92,705.12
Total Price Paid: $17,149.22
Total % Saved: 81.5%

[DJ Doena]

Not meaning to be insulting or something like that but is the SRP really a realistic way assuring oneself that one saved money during your purchases?

[Mustrum_Ridcully]

Total Price Paid: $17,149.22

I would be a dead man for spending only a fraction of this.

If The Best of All Possible Wives finds out that I already spent about € 2000 (~ U$ 2540), I'm dead anyhow. 

[addicted2dvd]

Well... that is over the past 15 years since I started collecting.

[Mustrum_Ridcully]

OK,
this explains it.
But in this case it's not exactly a "Years End Total", isn't it?
