    Well i've never brought a boxself myself from ebay but did you look at the feedback percentage??? If not (and you can remember the persons name)I suppose you should go and check it out! If it's 98+ I wouldn't worry :)

    Is it one similar to this?

    About a month ago, I bought an NCIS DVD from Australia. It said it could play on Regions 2 and 4, but it didn'tl it only played on my multi-region player, making the DVDs region 4, not Europe (Region 2). Eventually, I sent it back and am waiting for the refund.

    cedk: Hope yours turns out OK! What region code is it? Normally, DVDs can only play on one region, if I'm not mistaken. You could try a multi-region one though, there are plenty of websites which give you combinations to put into your DVD player which make it region free.

    major_csi_fan, it is very difficult to read posts which use netspeak, abbreviations and contain no punctuation. If you could use sentences and possibly read through your posts prior to posting them (instead of quick replying, make sure you preview your posts) that would be much appreciated.

    cedk, buying from places such as ebay always carry a certain degree of risk. I normally think that if it's significantly cheaper than you could get it elsewhere, or if you can't find similar items from genuine online retailers then it may not be all it seems. Basically buyer beware, if it's similar to the one you linked to then it certainly suggests it is official release. However, I would still be cautious and probably wouldn't part with my cash, especially as it's region free which I think is rather strange.

    I just got mine 20% discount from work. So thats £11.96 per 1/2 series. Not bad could be better. I guess it'll have to be Play.com next. I haven't heard of the 1-6 series box set only the 1-5. So maybe it is a sort of fake or something just available in Asia.

    ^ I've seen the Season 1-6 collection, but it doesn't really seem to be available in the UK at the moment, I think it was released on region 2 at some point though. The box sets always seem like a good idea, but I've already got quite a few of the 1/2 series so for me it would just be essentially purchasing the same episodes again, which would seem rather pointless. Even if it does come in a pretty box. :lol:
