I just used "Buy it Now!" to win the entire 82 episode collection of the Incredible Hulk live action tv series with Bill Bixby and Lou Ferrigno. Great, eh? Guess who forgot to look and see where the seller lives. The fucking UK! Now I have to pay $60+ in shipping charges. Wheee! -Warik ------------------ BY THE POWER OF GRAYSKULL!!!     | ||

OH GOD!!! Dude chances are you are not going to see anything. PAL is a format that is strictly for UK. You must get the version that is playable on American formats. Like buying music CD's over there, you have to look on the back and pick what region you want. You just bought blank tapes in my opinion | ||

yup, there are different codes for different regions. unless your setup to "play back" that code, you aint gonna see nut'n. MOST are not setup to play back anything other than the u.s. code. | ||

youre screwed "PAL".....since you already wasted your money on the tapes , it lokks like your gonna have to go waste some more on a vcr that plays tapes from all regions. you can buy them - for around a grand (in canada anyway). good luck man , but in my opinion , you should just stiff the guy. I've done it on ebay and nothing happens. | ||

Haven't sent him payment, yet. If it's in that crazy format, then he's going to have to re-auction it. Damnit... the Hulk... I was so close.  -Warik ------------------ BY THE POWER OF GRAYSKULL!!! | ||

Always check with your Elite Bros before doing something like this (shaking finger like a mother) | ||

my boss had bought a "superhero bust" & he started to worry because it was taking forever to come in the mail. Here he forgot to look at where it was being shipped out of ... Well it was coming from Singapore! took a bit longer than usual. | ||

Yay! The format is fine. The tapes were originally recorded in the US. I'm saved. Probably not going to see them for a long long time, though. Let's see... A week for payment to arrive there. Oh well... at least I won't start skipping class because I'm too busy watching Hulk videos... skipping for He-Man videos is bad enough. -Warik ------------------ BY THE POWER OF GRAYSKULL!!! |
All times are ET (US) | |
