Hi Andrewtst, do you mean there are possibility that they sold me the pirated copy? shocking.gif

Can't believe, the reputable outlet... s h i t !

My son complain those disc that bought from UK or US did not have Chinese subtitles, although English sub still watchable... blush.gif

G K Lai,

It's alright with getting scammed once, but its advisable not to get the "pirated" copies of BD's. You can always search at Sales section, look for Blu-ray / HD-DVD sub forum. There are many sellers with genuine items and at reasonable prices.

About the Animusic HD, if you need to find, pm me. I can find it for you..in fact i can help you to buy it..

Thanks sKyWiR3pT3lTd, I'm ok since I pay less for the disc, but I laugh to myself for buying pirated disc without knowing... blush.gif
Of course I don't like pirated movies, I love the touch and feel and the features of genuine copy! nod.gif

Hi all,

Regarding the Made in China Blu-ray title I mentioned here, I would like to share with you some pictures I took so those who are curious can have a look at it:

100% pirated copy. Yes it is BD-R
Genuine copy won't put 50GB label, and no 1080P label that big, beside this not much white transparent amaray case. Normally only use in some 3D title. Off course no such plastic wrap the BD.
Lastly I wonder it is real dual layer BD or not,  it look same as those single layer pirated copy as I can't seen the dual circle inside.
Now at least you know how to different it. smile.gif

Yes, thank you Andrew and sKyWiR3pT3lTd for your guidance, now I know not to trust even the outlet with good reputation... shakehead.gif
Hahaha.... I don't have a BD player on my computer, so I can't check if it is really 50GB disc...

Now I am wondering if the domestic trade and consumer personnel going to believe I don't even know I bought the pirated disc? laugh.gif
Most people will think this is my excuse... but in reality, I really don't know... cry.gif

THe DVD RG code be hacked, but I dont think BD could be hacked.

I only see 2 options, either sell it or get a B Region player, then you are open whole new horizon!  rclxms.gif

Right, there are not many Blu-ray player can be hack, only a few "lucky" models can... but no harm trying and congrats if it works... laugh.gif
The page combined DVD and BD players, so you can still use their search function to locate the BD model and see if it is hackable.

Another site worth checking out: http://www.multi-region.net/

That one is region locked.  Can't play in Region A player.  Yesterday, a bit lazy to convert to region free .ISO file.  Maybe, I will do it tonight and let you know.  But last time I watched Akira is more than 10 years ago.  Really don't have much memory for this movie.  blush.gif

Sifu... mind to share how did you do that? What equipment is needed? rclxms.gif

Despite having stock, some greedy stores would go ahead and clear out the display sets. Display sets are not guaranteed to function as it should. So always get the stored stocks instead displays.

The ring is made of gold-plated sterling silver.
Each ring is individually engraved with a laser process to capture the intricate details of the Elvish script with a certificate of authenticity.

Wow~!!! shocking.gif

Does it have to be the sole copy that i own? Anything that i'm selling off currently are extras.
I bought one from our lyn forumer and won eBay bidding.

I even had The Dark Knight few editions, Mask case x 2, With Slipcover x3.
