am i being ripped off?

[swiss tony]

i liked the movies fine. some are definitely originals some aren't definitely originals. i've watched 1 out of 10 received this time round so i'll have plenty of time to decide. on reflection, its only the american movies that appear bogus. the asian movies are seemingly okay. yeah, i'll go elsewhere. better safe than sorry

I am surprized to hear it was dvduniverse. They are a legitimate company. I'm actually an affiliate. They get product from a lot of suppliers sothey might not even know the dvds they shipped were not right. I'm willing to bet that if you emailed them and said you'd like to return them and why, they'd be more than happy to.

yeah i know. i took it in good spirit. i think, based on the endorsement of neverending, that they are fine but they are the most basic versions of the release. i suppose it depends on where the co. source their stock. sometimes you get basic sometimes you get directors cut limited edition unseen uncut super duper edition. on the advice of others on this thread i ordered my next 3 movies from amazon this morning. so, if their quality is superior i'll switch allegiances. does anyone know if there are sites out there selling top quality replicas?

IMO thats the best plac eto get them.
rarely do you sumble upon bootlegs on amazon, and when there is one someone will always review the item and state so.

There are some good sites that you can buy DVD's from for a reasonable price and not have to worry about getting copies.

deepdiscount.com

dvdpacific.com

to name two...

Actually, its inconclusive because we can only go by what info swisstony has given us.

The only way I could assist his concerns about what he is purchasing is to get him to ask himself if he *feels* some of the merchandise is bootlegged. Other than that, dont know!!!!

just received the departed from amazon. it only took 2 days to get here. thats the quickest yet. looks like i'm gonna stick with amazon for a while. i think the conclusions to be drawn from this thread and the experiences that prompted it are that if you have any doubts about the quality of the products you are purchasing there are too many rival companies to not shop around until you are happy. i'll make a note of the other two dvd sites manchester. at least the thread will serve to highlight the fact that cduniverse.com may not be the place to purchase top quality.
