 Utterly Charmed!! Buy it! January 8, 2009
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
As an avid Charmed fan, I had already spent the dough to purchase each season set as it was released...needless to say it added up to a lot of money spent. Regardless, I couldn't resist buying this uniquely designed set. (As well as the Limited Edition Deluxe version!) I figured it would be a wonderful collector's piece, and I just had to have it! I was not disappointed! The book is really well made, and looks like a real book. When you open it, there are pages replicated from the original Book of Shadows from the show, combined with pages with slots for the DVDs themselves. While many people have had issues with glue and scratches on their discs, I did not seem to have that problem to a degree that affected the usage of the discs. There were a few discs that had a very little bit of glue, and there were other discs that had some minor scratches, but all of the discs played fine. (I even read in another review that someone bought some DVD cleaner and the glue came right off.)
***IF YOU HAVE ANY PROBLEMS WITH THE DISCS IN YOUR COLLECTION-PLEASE NOTE: As of 11/25/08, the distributors of these collections set up a toll free number for customers to call if they received discs that were damaged. The number is 800-728-8564. (This number works for the US and Canada.) They will replace any problem discs.***
This is a wonderful series that has finally been represented well with this unique Book of Shadows replica. If you've never seen the show before, buy it and enjoy! If you are already a Charmed fan, you won't be disappointed with this collection. You will be especially pleased with the bonus disc that has many more extras than had previously been released, including the original unaired pilot that Alyssa Milano was not a part of. My only complaint, is that the original theme song was changed for the DVD releases of Season 8. But, unfortunately, this was done to all Season 8 releases, not just this special edition.

Best series collection ever. Well thought out design, it even has the ribbon bookmarks that the actual book from the show has to help you keep your place.. Only problem is the book is so big it won't fit on my DVD shelves..
Not all sets arrive damaged. January 2, 2009

This review covers the packaging only for the Charmed complete series set. I am not reviewing the series itself. I was hesitant to buy this because I had read an online review stating that discs were arriving scratched or covered in glue, and even a few Amazon reviews stated this. Nevertheless, it was my wife's number-one Christmas gift, and I decided to take the risk. I am glad that I did.
I personally inspected each and every disc on Christmas night, and I found only two that had the tiniest bit of glue. Using a regular DVD washer, found for about ten dollars at Best Buy, I cleaned both discs and the glue came off immediately. Thus far, every disc plays perfectly.
I don't doubt that some people have defective sets, but I wanted to state that, having ordered it from Amazon, it arrived in great condition. That said, the box itself is a bit clunky and I'm troubled that there is no clasp so that it tends to open on the shelf unless wedged between two comparable DVD sets. Still, it's a nifty little prop replica and really thrilled my wife, a dedicated Charmed fan.
For those considering upgrading, all that this set includes exclusively is a single bonus disc and, of course, interesting packaging. Since I did not own any of the season sets previously, this was a smart buy. Not sure how smart it would be, however, for someone who already owns part or all of the series.

Charmed: The Complete Series
I purchased this item in a store, I went online to add it to my DVD inventory list on amazon, and noticed someone saying that the many of the discs in their set had either scratches or glue on the discs. I began to examine my own set. I looked each disc carefully to discover that every one of them had either scratches or glue on them, right out of the box. The extent of the damage varies with each disc but all would have been either unplayable or at the very least skipped.

This product was better than I expected. I thought that it would be pourly made but it wasn't. In fact it look more like a book than expected.
