I want to get an old show on DVD that hasn't been released (and
probably won't be). When I googled, the first sponsored hit was
TVboxset.com. They offer a 30-day money-back guarantee, which sounds
good, but before I order I wonder if anyone has had experience with
them, good or bad.

SCAM TVBOXSET.COM!!!!!!! FRAUD
They are a fraudulent company. Google them... you'll find out. I was
ripped off $109 from them. I purchased a Smurf DVD and never received
it.

I should have Googled first. This is a bad, bad company if even a
quarter of the comments are to be believed.

And I think they are. The "Contact Us" page at the site has no phone
number and no physical address. The whois record shows it's a proxy
registration, with no actual contact information.

Sorry -- if I'd checked first I wouldn't have needed to post a query.

**Hi Stan. Have you tried asking around in alt.video.tape-trading?
There are many decent VHS/DVD traders there that can help you or
perhaps point you in the right direction.

Thanks for the tip.

I've got about half the episodes on VHS recorded off the air. I'll
check out that group.
