🦋 Hmm, this is a great deal...

...If it pans out. I just bought from an e-bay seller located in Shanghai, a 24-dvd box set of Werner Herzog's movies, for about $1.50/disk. (Plus $1/disk shipping.) Thing is I can't find info about this particular box set at Amazon, which has various other 6- and 8-dvd sets of Herzog. But, well, the photo looks legit. The price is low enough and the product (cross fingers) good enough that I decided to gamble on it.

(It makes the gamble seem like more of a likely one, that the seller has numerous positive feedbacks. FWIW.)

I got this boxed set off ebay as well... and the seller's account got deleted right afterwards.

Here's the deal, they are bootlegs. The box also happens to say "THIS DVD SET IS NOT TO BE EXPORTED"

The movies are all there, including one that Herzog has nothing to do with... some french movie about a deaf cabbie or something.

The only big complaint is it's cheaply bound in a pink dvd rolodex thing and there are no director commentaries on any of the discs... and if you've ever heard a Herzog commentary then you know this is a BIG loss.
