Re: Bootleg topic! Real vs fake
Have you contacted the seller? I once got duped with a bootleg movie box sets that ended up getting disc rot.
Re: Bootleg topic! Real vs fake
I have i have and this is my message to them and their reply.
their reply.Hi
I've just had these sets checked, disc 10 has water damage so does 11/12 and i've just found out these are bootleg knock offs and not the real deal, not sure how it was not noticed before putting them up for sale. any chance of part of my money back since they are only 30$ for the full set.
john
Really not sure what to do but in a way it was my fault for not checking but they still should of said import or bootleg or something but they said real very rare DBDB.Hi, there not bootlegs they are Japanese imports with the rare uncut footage. How much was you thinking as a part refund? Thankyou, Andy

Re: Bootleg topic! Real vs fake
Maybe tell them you ended up doing research and that your set does not match official versions and them link them to Kanzenshuu
Re: Bootleg topic! Real vs fake

Re: Bootleg topic! Real vs fake
I would ask for either 30-50% back (whatever you're comfortable with) or at least reimburse shipping (if it wasn't free). If they give you problems you could file a claim with eBay or PayPal as bootlegs do go against their terms.
If he gives you bad feedback I belive to can tack on a note explaining your side of the story.

The seller agreed to have them back and a full refund given including p+p back.

Re: Bootleg topic! Real vs fake
Never knew there was such a real problem of bootlegs of these old out of print DB releases.

Re: Bootleg topic! Real vs fake
I don't mind bootlegs as i have many but with water damage to 3 dc's and of then saying they was the real ones i hate it so i'm sending back.ArmenianPepsi wrote: ↑Thu Jul 30, 2020 10:48 pm Never knew there was such a real problem of bootlegs of these old out of print DB releases.
Dvd's are dvd9 and this is the quality
They have english/chinese subs but only english work. They seem like clones of the real ones for sure with added sub.
When running through makemkv its just errors every 120 seconds. (just check for errors)

Re: Bootleg topic! Real vs fake
This may not be entirely on topic but I heard that in recent times the Super blu-rays have been a real target for bootleggers

Re: Bootleg topic! Real vs fake

Re: Bootleg topic! Real vs fake
Could anyone with a known legitimate Madmen Region B copy of the 1.2 Level Set help me out?
Recently I saw an eBay listing for a copy of the 1.2 Level Set for around $20, and I figured given the sellers record I’d give it a whirl.

Everything seems fine, the discs are pressed and not burned. The only thing that really strikes me as odd is the stacking in the case, as the Region A ones aren’t stacked at all.
I checked the disks on my ps4 and they seem legitimate, but I’d like anyone with a known good copy to chime in if they could.

It's either fake or the discs are real but the packaging has been replaced.
