If my rating was based on the product, I would give this 5 stars. However, I wouldn't recommend buying this set at the current price of $199.99. If you buy each of these seasons separately through Amazon, you get them for less than $135. Seems like a better deal to me!

What's to say? Seven seasons of one of the funniest tv shows. You won't be disappointed; lots of extras and commentaries and all that good stuff. Features such classics as The Soup Nazi and The Contest. The only bad part about this box set is that it is not all the seasons of Seinfeld. Enjoy!

THERE ARE 9 SEASONS IN ALL, SO PLAN ON BUYING 2 MORE SETS LATER. STILL 134 SHOWS FOR $99 IS A GREAT DEAL.

It' s been ten years since the show about a stand-up New-York City comedian , "neat freak" named Jerry Seinfeld and his three colorful friends, a loser, a doofus, and a neurotic ex-girlfriend, aired its final episode on May 14, 1998 but still no sitcom on TV has came close to its incomparable brilliancy which lies in the ability to somehow make a viewer addicted to the narcissist and selfish characters that constantly put themselves into the pointless and absurd situations. I still remember how I became a fan. One evening, my husband and two sons were watching the episode called "The Rye", and I stopped, watched for a few minutes, told them to move over - and the rest is history. I fell in love instantly and forever. Since that night, I watched the new episodes and re-runs whenever it was possible and I've become one of the millions of fans of the greatest show about nothing ever written, directed, and produced. In its best episodes, "Seinfeld" is perfection that no other show would ever achieve, and there are many great episodes. Even now after all these years I keep asking myself why the show about four rather selfish, ego-centric, immature, often back-stabbing and outrageous characters who are afraid of commitments has been so universally loved and admired? Maybe we can see ourselves in them? Or, the secret to Seinfeld's success was the misanthropic Larry David, the failed comedian but talented writer who uses humor derived from awkward social situations, and his collaboration with Jerry Seinfeld? Or maybe as a really great work of art, the show defies any explanation? The sitcom has given us so many unforgettable minutes of joy, that it will never be replaced. Even Curb Your Enthusiasm, Larry David's baby in all its greatness is not as enjoyable as "Seinfeld." CUE is about George Costanza whose dreams came true - he is rich and has a beautiful loving wife but he does not have Jerry, Cramer, and Elaine in his life, and their absence shows.

Some of my favorite episodes - "The Soup Nazi", "The Chinese Restaurant", "The Pez Dispenser", "The Limo", "The Bubble Boy", "The Contest" -"that's the best, Jerry, that's the best from the masters of their domains", The Puffy Shirt, The Hamptons, oh my God, there are so many! And how many quotes from the show have become the part of every day conversations, "yada yada yada"," they are real and spectacular", "Jerry, just remember, it's not a lie if you believe it." "Hello, Jerry. Hello, Newman".

Thanks for the wonderful memories. 5+/5 or 10/10 - what else?

Wonderful experience if you are a FAN. The Seinfeldt shows are ageless, each one is a trip through memory lane, a welcome diversion to the junk so-called sit com genre available now. My wish is for a Newhart series. Spend the money, enjoy!!!

Best thing I have ever bought on Amazon......have always loved Seinfeld and now you can head str8 to your favorite episode for a quick laugh.

Even though I'm in Australia, I bought this item because of the fantastic price for my partner. The whole series cost about the same as the first two volumes cost in Australia.
Seinfeld is a fantastic, hilarious show. We've been watching it every weekend since it arrived.
Definitely worth the money :D

Can't resist that price ($99). The other reviewer is correct that there are two more seasons not included here (because they aren't on DVD yet). However Larry David wasn't a main writer for those and I think they were much weaker than the previous seasons.

Got these for my 22 year old grandson! He loves them and was very excited to recieve the series! He is going to share them with his friends at school!!

My husband and I have watched all 9 of the seasons of Seinfeld from start to finish twice now. And the episodes still don't bore us! Love this show! I would highly recommend getting all of the seasons. You never know which season the best episodes will come from, so get them all! They're all hilarious and it's worth every penny.
