According to tvshowsondvd.com that website (dvd4play.com) is a known bootleg site. I would discourage you from ordering from them. You will probably end up with shows that were recorded from TV. And if you have any problems your chances of getting replacement discs or a refund will be almost nil.

thats what i thought the set looks good but it is not worth the risk.

Buyer beware. I know of someone who bought this set. It is a bootleg and it is from China. I guess it is hard to enforce the copyrights from overseas. Many of the episodes that were listed were not even included as the add says. There is another company in the US selling bootlegs of the Classic 39. I'm a little surprised that they have not been shut down because they have been selling them for years. They claim that the 39 is in public domain, which is a bunch of malarkey.

I can almost justify bootlegs of the Lost Episodes because they are no longer being reproduced.

I believe the correct phrase to use is "rip off." First of all, it's a bootleg beyond bootlegs. Secondly, it's listing episodes on the set that are known to still be "missing" (i.e. "Missing Pants") Plus this website is one of those famous ones that advertise the sets, and then never ships them. When they get caught, the site disappears and then reappears later with a new name.

I would just be careful of ordering any DVDs from a site that has "4" and "play" in its title. You may just end up with a different kind of movie then what you wanted to see!
