I was going to jump on this until I saw the bilingual cover, no thank you, but a good price nonetheless, just not worth it to me.

The fact that there is the slightest possibility of it is enough for me, especially after reading the posts that this company charges you upon ordering, not upon shipment, and will only give you store credit if you cancel your order, which in some cases has disappeared. No thank you.
Until we get confirmation that there IS NO bilingual cover, I may change my stance.

Okay, I emailed dvdsoon and here is the response I just got back:
"Dear Sir:
This product has bilingual packaging and I do beleive it is different from the US product since this one has a french track.
If you have any other questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Why should anyone give a damn about the language on the packaging? 
$28 for 6 DVDs!!!!.....You can't beat that anywhere else!
The content of the discs is the only thing that should matter.

One more thing.... are we sure that dvdsoon's listing is not a misprice? I wondering if they transposed the numbers and the actual price should be 53 CAD ($42 USD).

The first film is the only one that's going to have a DTS track, right?

Who gives a toss about bilingual packaging?
Oh, for Pete's sake! The packaging is paper that wraps around the real product, the film(s). You know this is Rocky, the English is still on there....who cares? Why make any distinction at all over this, if the content of the discs is equivalent?
I've seen similar comments before, and I don't understand them at all. It just seems incredibly petty to even complain about this, let alone not purchase DVDs because of it. I'm completely baffled.
Sorry if I'm helping this thread to veer off-topic, but seeing this come up with yet another title, I just had to say something.
Enjoy the movies, everyone!

well i just cancelled my order at dvdsoon for this item if they take too long to process it , i will just call my credit card company and get them to remove the charge, i found this set at DDD for $41.04 plus with the 20% off sale it will be around $33 and change so now for only 4 more dollars, it's not worth the bilingual packaging
