Is this legit?
http://www.tvmediastore.com/carolburnett.htm
The store has the scent of "bootleg" to it to me but I can't find any thing on Google that suggests this store is a bootleg site. Or legit, for that matter.
That is a super price on Carol Burnett if they are the same DVDs you get from Gunthy-Renker.
In the "about us" section they say they buy in bulk from various sources. Gunthy-Renker is NOT mentioned as one of the sources.
This is an advertisement I saw at the top of the DVDtalk.com home page...is it safe to assume DVDTalk is NOT allowing bootlegs to be advertised here?

That site looks incredibly sketchy. And for all I know there is no legit complete series set of Thundercats for sale anywhere. I'd assume if they're selling one set thats bootleg, the rest are as well.

Hmmmm, crazy low prices, DVDs being offered that don't exist in other stores, a website that looks like it was designed back in 1997 using Geocities...I better go online and confirm my suspicions!

This really belongs in the store forum, but since they are most likely a bootleg site I'm locking the thread for now. I've asked for clarification on DVDtalk advertising it which is why I'm not just deleting it.

The current assumption is that it was probably a Goggle ad that you saw. Goggle doesn't care who advertising w/ them and there doesn't seem to be a way to filter specific ads, so we're stuck w/ them. So I guess the word to wise is, just because you see the ad here it doesn't necessarily mean DVDtalk has endorsed it.
