Has anyone bought dvds from dvdsfound?

I'm interested in buying this.

http://dvdsfound.com/doctor-who-season-15-dvd-boxed-set-p-181.html

But I can't believe they are real dvds and not cheap Chinese imports. But the guy posting the deals recently says their real and so doe the customer support guys. (could be same person i suppose but yeah)

I delete them because I believe they are selling counterfeit merchandise.

their "About Us" page is riddled with misspellings and grammar errors. the tiny CNZZ link at the very bottom left takes you to their Chinese stat tracker.
looks shady IMO

made a purchase of star trek series from them a few months ago. The DVDs seems all right not like bootlegs...

@greenfeetsb: really @greenfeetsb? hmm that is amazing. how long did it take for you to receive the dvds? did you have any playback issues in your region of DVD player?

wOOtgurl~you and many other people on this site amaze me. I have no idea how to check out domain sites, to me this is all magic. That is one of the reasons I'm here, if a site is bought from by most of you, it seems "safe" to me. Thanks.

@gigi889: you can bookmark any one of the popular "whois" websites and use it to search, such as http://www.whois.net/
from those results, you can tell it's registered with godaddy and it's a fairly new site. you have to combine that with other facts to come up with your own conclusion. easy peasy

I don't understand why you guys think this is counterfeit? I mean the prices are low but not insanely so. Also since Bluray has come out, DVD prices have dropped quite a bit. I'm not saying I'm in any big hurry to purchase from them but I don't really see any red flags...

@autotechinstl: I think this was the icing on the cake for most:

I'm with @wOOtgurl. If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, it most likely will turn out to be an order of Black Market Peking Duck.

Yeah, the region free DVDs and global shipping services they work with is a dead giveaway. Most likely you'll end up with with some sort of bootleg. It may be a very good bootleg, but I wouldn't risk it.

Hey, log in or sign up first!

Whatever it is you're trying to do can ONLY be done by registered, logged-in Deals.Woot members. Why? Because they're better people than you. Don't worry: you can easily improve yourself by logging into your Woot account or signing up for a new one.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
