Post by: gaol on Jun 17, 2002 at 06:56 PM: I will certainly visit your shop, Mr. G! (any upcoming discounts/promos for PinoyDVD members? ;D)

At your price, you will certainly give the other video store in Rosa Alvero stiff competition. ;) ;D

Title: Re:New shop in Katipunan area offers video classics
Post by: smilette on Jun 26, 2002 at 12:46 PM: hi G!
went to your shop the other day...i borrowed a DVD and one VCD....the VCD was ok, had it for 3 days kahit na somewhat new title pa sya (Craze/Beautiful)....but i had to return the DVD...yung Ocean's 11 nyo, from track 18 downwards, ayaw nang basahin....i think it's because of the sticker placed on the DVD na some sort of control number nyo....i don't think it's my player cause nakakapag-play naman po sya ng ibang DVD's. anyway, the clerk at your shop said that she will ask you if i can just rent another title or another DVD copy of the same title....

hope to hear a reply soon...thanks!

i love that your store has many old titles...it's so hard to find old movies in other movieshops kasi. :)

Post by: Sir Psycho Sexy on Sep 04, 2002 at 07:15 PM: Hi!
Saan malapit ang shop mo? Medyo mahaba kasi ang Katipunan and I really don't know the name of the side streets.

Is it in the Ateneo area or sa Katipunan extension?
If i'm coming from UP saan ako titingin right or left side?
Thanks, looking forward to visiting and renting a lot of dvd's from your shop soon ;D
Title: Re:New shop in Katipunan area offers video classics
Post by: Alfie on Sep 04, 2002 at 08:40 PM: It's in the Ateneo Area, the Landmark coming in from UP is the Street(Rosa Alvero) between Shakey's and McDonald's, G Video is situated in the new building housed at the corner lot of Esteban Abada and R.Alvero, another landmark to note is that it's on the left side facing Pediamorphosis nursery School. ;) ;D

All DVDs are Region 3 except maybe The Lord Of The Rings. ;)
Title: Re:New shop in Katipunan area offers video classics
Post by: Sir Psycho Sexy on Sep 04, 2002 at 08:53 PM: Cool!

Easy access from Sikatuna where I live ;D

I was there with my wife at your shop last saturday. Told you I was from pinoydvd. Buti na lang since you waived the P100 fee. Although I paid for the P30 ID. Well ok lang since business naman ito? Will go there Tuesday night to return what I borrowed-- vanilla sky and john malkovich.
Hope to rent mib2 kung nandyan since I haven't seen the movie.

Great video shop..... Would patronize it for a long time.

To view your PRIVATE MESSAGES, just scroll down the PinoyDVD Index or Home page. At the bottom of the page, you will find the heading PRIVATE MESSAGE...
You've got __ messages. Click here (http://www.pinoydvd.com/yabbse/index.php?board=&action=imoutbox) to view them.

Good luck! Here's my reply to you query, anyway.

G-video shop is the only video rental shop located at the UP Shopping Center a.k.a. Dilimall. It's the middle stall, right beside the ladies' room (pardon the landmark, please). The DVD collection is not as extensive as those available at the Katipunan branch, though, because the focus there is more on VCDs. Please check out the Katipunan shop's latest promo: DVD rent-all-you-can promo. For an annual subscription payment of P1,200 + fixed P200 monthly fee, you are entitled to unlimited DVD rentals every week, 4 per rental transaction. Hope you can drop by the shop to inquire about further details on this. Thanks!

Please drop by the katipunan shop to register for membership. For membership applicants who live/work/study within the vicinity of UP-Katipunan, QC, we simply charge P30 for the ID. For those outside the coverage area, we charge a minimal membership fee of Php100. Or you may opt for the rent-all-you-can DVD subscription (details at the start of this thread).

UP members may rent at the Katipunan branch (or vice-versa) by simply presenting your G-video ID and filling out the branch's registration forms -no ID fee and no other requirements needed. The staff will just verify your file from the other branch.

Thanks for your interest. Hope to see you at the shop soon!

:)

Post by: gearhead on Nov 24, 2007 at 10:41 PM: we've been talking how most dvd rental shops have come and gone. it's time to put our money where our mouth is. this shop has just recently opened (again) in katipunan. so for those near the place, time to show our support.

message from the owner:

Quote
Hi guys,

It's sad to know that a lot of video shops renting out original DVDs have closed down.

G-video shop (Katipunan area) is trying to keep afloat during these trying times for business. PM or email me at [email protected], if interested, and we'll try to work out a scheme where you can avail of distance DVD rentals. Will send you the updated DVD list too.

Thanks!

I remember posting that message at one of pinoydvd.com DVD RENTAL threads last June. The truth is, I almost closed the shop during this semestral break. But I do not have the heart to do it, so here I go again... relaunching the shop, currently repainting the walls and will also try to beef up the DVD stocks with new release titles.

G-video will re-open as an ALL-DVD rental shop this weekend, November 9, Friday.

At the momemt, we're trying to figure out our new rates, such as for the membership and monthly subscription fees. Rental will now be reduced to Php20 (same price as VIDEO CITY just across the street). Also considering EXTENDED rental duration, like one to two weeks (depending upon the number of DVDs borrowed). Or perhaps, rental by courier service like NETFLIX. I wish to solicit your suggestions please... hope you could take the time to reply here.

Thanks

as i've said, they actually opened already... so you can just email them for the new pricing scheme and complete dvd list.
