Wow! So, any idea why it's cheaper in the UK now? I mean, if it used to be expensive, what changed?

I know they were expensive for the same needless reason as the US. Each release only had 4 episodes and when they eventually boxed them they priced it similar to what all the individuals would have added up to. Thankfully it didn't hold. Despite the "Limited Editon" stamp on all of the boxes. I guess prices went down when everyone figured out they were not limited at all (Thankfully, they are great sets for a great price). That massive "Ultimate" set is really cool, too.

Although those big UK releases with the mechandise and concept art included are pretty expensive and hard to find. I think they only pressed 5000 or so of each set.

it helps that $:£ shot down from about 2:1 to 1.4:1 in about a year

oh and don't be fold it's still expensive compared to other ultimate box sets, for example the x-files (9 seasons + 1st movie) is only £100 and buffy (7 seasons) is only $60, so paying £100 of only 4 seasons and a miniseries is still pricey, relatively. comparitively it should only be ~£50.

A quality show like this one is definitely a good temporary escape.

Update! Made a lucky buy on ebay! Providing its 100% legitimate and not a Chinese copy, which happened to me before, they lied on the listing. But this user has a good rating, so it should be legit.
Anyway fact is, I got the ultimate boxset, all four seasons and peace keeper wars for a bargain price of £86! Flipping £4 cheaper that one season boxset on HMV! ^_^

I had a look in my local WHSmith today and they were £28 a season, and £5 for peacekeeper wars. so a £117 total.

Sweet! Yay for you! You gotta love those great/lucky deals on ebay.

I've never had the problem with Chinese copies, but that's interesting. I did have trouble distinguishing between the Australian and the North Americans ones though (Australian copies sell for cheaper, as a general rule, so I almost bought the wrong one).

That's a great deal. Before eventually buying the invidual UK boxes I was bidding on one of those Ultimate boxes and it went up to about £130...luckily someone outbid me at the last moment because I realized they were selling for much cheaper on amazon.co.uk and the uk portal of ebay. Not as low as £86, though One you bought should be real as long as the picture looks legit.

I've seen that before...I figured it was fake. There are some that almost appear to be fake but aren't, like this gigantic thing:

[Automission]

You'd think a picture would prove it, but I bought an SG1 boxset that had a legit picture, but ended up being fake. If it turns out to be fake I'l complain and dispute it via paypal to get my money back.

Uh oh, just re read the description to check.

The cover picture shown is a stock photo for illustrative purposes only, and is usually taken from Ebay's database. Occasionally the actual item may be slightly different.

That starts to reek of fake merchandise. But I don't see why they'd do that, seeing as they seem otherwise legitimate for everything they've sold.

Well, I really do hope it is legit for you.
