Cheapest source for Brazil releases?

[Samuel_Scott]

Plenty of online shops, but the shipping can be as much as $50 USA for one release! I previously grabbed the X-Files 1-9 filing cabinet set from Brazil and although the shipping was $120 on that item, it was reasonably bulky and heavy and to be expected.

I've never bought any Brazilian releases from Brazil.. only a few DVDs long ago from a domestic auction site. Would be interested in getting some tho.

I remember that wooden beast of an X Files set and then some! How much does that go for these days? Did you recieve yours in mint condition? I also remember when it was released, lots of people recieved their sets all banged up and damaged due to poor packaging.

Mine came in perfect nick.

That's good to hear. Considering it's been OOP for a long time and nearly impossible to get for a reasonable price these days and first of all thanks to you reminding me of its existence again, I'm now considering to get a similar filing cabinet custom-made with a few carpenter friends. Shouldn't become too pricey. I only have the 2007 UK complete set so I think I need to get a hold of the whole series in digipak packagings which will look nicer in the drawers like in the Brazilian set. Might wait for some time tho, whether the series will be released on blu in the meantime.

Are those things even legal? I've seen a few such sets and they always seem quite bootleggish.

It's an official Fox release and was limited to 1000. There were some cheap imitations knocking about though.
