26th December 2001 By Graham P. Smith


Late October, I commented on the appearance of a Season One Millennium DVD Box-Set which had appeared on E-bay. Recently another edition appeared on E-Bay and was discovered by Francis Bedros who posted his discovery on the Millennium Newsgroup. I recently e-mailed the successful bidder of the original box-set to see if he had received the goods and to find out what he thought about the quality. So far I have yet to receive a reply. It is unknown if Francis" discovery is in fact the same set, but fellow Group member Steve was able to provide some more information:

"I contacted a seller about this about a month ago. I don"t know if it‘s the same person, he/she had a different E-bay name, but was located in Hong Kong.

Anyway, this is what I was told about these DVD‘s:

  • They were made for the Japanese Press for reviews etc.
  • They were made from the same transfer as the Japanese laser discs so the Japanese subtitles are burned into the picture. You can"t turn them off.

I don"t know if the seller is legit or not. Steve."


Here are some photographs from the auction page:

I get a warm tingly feeling just imagining an official DVD release set looking like this on my DVD shelf!
