hi i can understand are DVD'S not really cheap to buy in Taiwan cause when my dad used to go there to work years ago he used to bring back loads of DVD's that he got cheap.
Actually, what makes it expensive forme here is the fact that I am mail ordering everything from USA, UK and occasioanlly Germany.

Taiwan used to be very high on the list of countries infamous for boot legging, but things have improved since then. When I was in China in 2002 it was actually hard to find legal DVDs :laugh: In Taiwan they are still around, but most stuff is available legally through regular stores.


have you ever visited Taiwan with your dad?

It amazes me just how many bootlegs come from China. It took me (and I assume others) reporting the same re-listed bootleg copies to eBay dozens of times before they finally started blocking. And that was only one DVD (boxed set) with another 1,000 different ones on the site.

I have a collection.
It can be found here.
No need to check it often.
I update it only twice a year!
