No. I do remember a Groupon or Living Social deal a few years back that turned out to be bootleg copies of Classical Stretch.

yes - i requested a return label and refund just now.

grateful for VF that is a record of data/archives.

**EDITED TO ADD: the original threads about that scandal were in the Bargain Watch forum but got purged. Groupon and Bonanza apparently sold the CS bootlegs.

update: i got a full refund.

just curious - do you leave negative feedback? i got a full refund without incident. when i applied for the refund, i checked off the choice for "doesn't seem authentic" as the reason. seller didn't ask for the discs back, which is good because i wouldn't want them to continue trying to sell this to someone else.

I'm so sorry this happened but glad things have ended okay for you.

Guess I'd forgotten there were fakes out there.

I don't think I would leave negative feedback because she may not have known they weren't legit. Except -- if you look at her feedback and see a lot of comments from others about them not being legit, then you know she has a history and is probably well aware. If that's the case, I would leave negative feedback.

there were 2 negative feedback ratings - of note was someone bought Season 12 and said one of the discs wouldn't play. the seller sent a replacement. the other negative rating was regarding a defective disc for the Outlander drama series.

Thanks Annie for the advice. This seller has not left me any feedback - probably wondering what i might do. i'll just let the feedback period lapse.

i agree - the seller might not know, and by the same token, some buyers might not even know it could be a bootleg! these CS seasons are being listed as "new, sealed". hopefully if ebay tracks "doesn't seem authentic" complaints, they'll call out the seller.

Bzar..are these bootlegs still on sale on ebay?
I suspect they are (based on some listings I saw)

Was wondering what kind of feedback the seller left you, too.

neither of us left any feedback for each other, which is find with me. i received 100% of my payment back - that's all i wanted.

EDITED TO ADD: i sent an email to CS customer service for their information.
