Cross-duplicating tapes

This page is dedicated to those tapes with known copies having been duplicated at facilities other than those normally serving their respective releasing companies.

'''NOTICE: Do not add a title unless you have a copy for yourself that comes from a different duplicator than expected. If you add one based solely on eBay information, and I buy the listing in question and find out otherwise, the offending party will be blocked for one week. I get enough trouble just trying to acquire videotapes without being misled. Yours truly, The Proprietor'''
