Hmm, I've always been intersted in how much money bootleg sellers actually make off those things, and furthermore where their suppliers are... found this site
<edit by Mod (xris), good example but the link has to go all the same >

(mods, feel free to remove the link, but the minimum order for this guy is 240 DVDs... so it's not REALLY a link to a bootleg seller in a practical sense).

Seems that this guy is selling them for about $4.50 per DVD, and I don't know whether he's refering to per DVD set or per DVD. If the former, the profit margin is HUGE. You can sell 26 eps of one piece for $35, and make a %750 profit...

dammit, I'm starting to convince myself to make money this way... better stop.
