Hi. I have seen THIS on ebay and was wondering if they are dodgy? I don't think the complete series has been released in the UK yet has it? £19.99 seems too good a price for all the DVD's.

Yes, it's dodgy. The wording of the advert says it all.

In other words, it's pirated but looks as good as if you bought the DVDs.

There isn't even an episode 1-3 box set out yet.

How about THIS ? Maybe they have been officially released in Asia?

If they had been released officially we'd have heard about it. That ebayer is making a packet from selling just those DVDs, and the claim that they're not copied is moot because all that means is that they've probably bought the discs as they are. Yes, they didn't copy them but they're still pirated. I've no doubt they're just direct copies of the DVD films that have been packaged very nicely.

Bargain :D I just bought some for £23.99 inc P&P. The box set that comes out here is likely to be near on £100 I would have thought.

Not really a bargain, they are pirates and as such absolutely worthless.


The way I look at it, any DVD set on Ebay is automatically suspect until checked thoroughly - whilst there are legitimate DVD sets, and sellers there most are pirates in my experience (for some titles it can be as low as 1-2% being legitimate).

But if there is no noticeable difference in quality why pay more? I hate pirates, but if I'm going to save £60ish quid then I'm afraid this is my priority.
