How did you miss this? -

These DVD's are converted from the original master VHS because they have never been officially released. Wrestlemania's 1 and 2 are in DVD quality and have been converted from PAL (Region 2) to NTSC (Region 1) to work on American DVD Players. Wrestlemania XX is also a transfer to DVD. Please make sure you check and see if your DVD player will play DVD+R discs before bidding. All sales are final so bid only if you want them. Ships in 1-6 business days. Email with any questions.

It was listed in the auction!

In his auctions for WM 1 and 2, he says he transfered them from the PAL releases. The others are probably VHS transfers.

As for the cases, a simple scan of the original tape slip covers tossed into a template can make those.

And he has WM XX, which Class316 just posted the specs of, which is 3 discs, not 2. Which means this seller probably captured it from PPV.

Also, WWE would never allow the old block logo to appear of their DVD releases due to the lawsuit. (See the thread for the R2 releases of WM 1-4. No block logo to be found on the covers)

Edit: or you could read the auction listing

Gotta admit I didn't, cuz as soon as I saw the picture I could tell.

I'd wait, or try to import the Region 2 releases.

I think I'd rather get bootleg DVDs rather than crap $30 VHS tapes.

If you want to be as "official" as possible, here's what you can do:

WM 1,2,3,4 on R2

WM 15-20 on R1

Then search ebay for "wrestlemania DVD" and you should get fairly decent prices for bootlegs 5-14

Also, WM 14 is the only WM with the WWF scratch logo that is not on DVD. So for this one in particular a bootleg is pretty essential no matter what.

Interesting you don't get 15-19 with this "WrestleManina Legacy" set... Must have been the bastard years the family doesn't talk about.

You need a region free player, one that converts Pal to NTSC

You can. Either with a region free player or on a computer with a DVD-Rom

What's amusing to me is if you check his other auctions, he's selling them individually as well. WM3 is up to $30+. And even better is how he lists in the title OOP, funny I never remember these discs ever being in print.
