Member Leung Tsan Posted October 17, 2012 Member Share Posted October 17, 2012 nice idea... this way we can all share our sources, here are mines : yesasia.com kungfudvdworld.com amazon.com (and amazon.co.uk.... check both because they are not exactly the same and one movie being in stock in amazon.co.uk might not be in stock at amazon.com) fareastflix.com (never ordered there yet.... and would appreciate if somebody could confirm if there are reliable or not) that's it....

Member the sentimental swordsman Posted May 26, 2013 Member Share Posted May 26, 2013 I had several titles shaw brothers in Thai version, "rivals of kung fu", "Jade raksha", "my rebellious son", "lady assassin". The Thai "UNITED" versions are identical to the versions IVL, very good quality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member shaolin swords Posted May 26, 2013 Author Member Share Posted May 26, 2013 TILUNG60: I heard jade raksha was a really good flick on another forum how did you like the movie was just wondering your opinion on the movie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member the sentimental swordsman Posted May 26, 2013 Member Share Posted May 26, 2013 This film is good, a story of revenge as usual, but in the same genre, I prefer films like "the lady hermit", "Raw Courage" or " dragon swamp ". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member shaolin swords Posted June 9, 2013 Author Member Share Posted June 9, 2013 im waiting for dragon swamp and lady hermit to come in the mail with a couple of other flicks This film is good, a story of revenge as usual, but in the same genre, I prefer films like "the lady hermit", "Raw Courage" or " dragon swamp ".

Member the sentimental swordsman Posted June 9, 2013 Member Share Posted June 9, 2013 "The lady hermit" is a very good wuxia, it contains a love triangle (cheng pei, lo lieh and shih szu), excellent casting and "the dragon swamp", it's one of my favorite wuxia, lo wei exudes a mysterious and fantastic atmosphere especially in the swamp dragon, in any case, there are 2 very good movies. You can also watch the movie "the black tavern" which is the sequel to the lady hermit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Lady Jin Szu-Yi Posted July 23, 2015 Member Share Posted July 23, 2015 Resurrecting another old thread, but I've found a great seller on eBay. None more than $22 with shipping and all brand new, legitimate IVL releases. I am holding out hope the two IVLs I ordered from a Hong Kong seller at amazon make it to my job without damage.

Member thankyouforfu Posted July 23, 2015 Member Share Posted July 23, 2015 I've got a brand new IVL DVD of Five Element Ninjas (aka Chinese Super Ninjas) for sale if anyone is interested. Just message me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Lady Jin Szu-Yi Posted July 23, 2015 Member Share Posted July 23, 2015 Me personally, I am skipping bootlegs whenever possible now. I stopped shopping at kungfudvdworld - not good quality bootlegs for one (they freeze or skip in my player all the time. I spent way too much $ there for films I later found legitimate copies of.) Slightly bummed far east flix charges tax, so I am holding off purchases there, because I'd rather put that money into real releases. I haven't ordered from YesAsia in along time. Hmm, I wonder if they still have that Queens of Evil release. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member dvdtherapy Posted July 23, 2015 Member Share Posted July 23, 2015 My purchases at kungfudvdworld.com have been very hit or miss. I don't think I'll use them again. Fareastflix.com hasn't charged me tax, don't know if that's new or just because of the state you live in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Lady Jin Szu-Yi Posted July 24, 2015 Member Share Posted July 24, 2015 Definitely must be by state.Thanks for that heads up dvdtherapy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Hei Meigui Posted July 24, 2015 Member Share Posted July 24, 2015 All the IVL disks I've gotten are from Amazon or Ebay. I have a few sellers I trust on Ebay and a few on Amazon. Most of what I try to get is Region 3. Some are pricey though. I've been lucky I feel like I have only gotten a few possibly shady bootlegs. Also I have been buying the Shaw Brother's stuff off of iTunes. I don't do Dubbs. iTunes lets you have it both ways, Subbed and Dubbed.

Member MagicDragon Posted October 1, 2015 Member Share Posted October 1, 2015 Far East Flix actually has a very good selection of Shaw Brothers of all genres. All types of wuxia, horror, and other genres. Though boots, they said thatsome of their titles are ;remastered'. I ordered NA CHA AND THE SEVEN DEVILS from them and some others and the quality was good on all of them (and in proper ratios). Selection is definetly one of their strengths. They have Japanese samurai section, Asian horror and SCi-fi titles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Tex Killer Posted October 1, 2015 Member Share Posted October 1, 2015 I have complete set of those 258 martial arts+wu xia and add to that ~50 drama/action/ghost story no need to shop around anymore(that is not exactly true I would love to get swordmates and black butterfly singapore discs). But ebay and dddhouse are great for ivls...for thai releases ethaicd is ok but if item is out of stock be prepared for trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member ShawAngela Posted October 1, 2015 Member Share Posted October 1, 2015 You can find Thai version on ethaicd ; sometimes, they are United, sometimes, they are Lion hearts release, but it happens that sometimes, the dvd comes without the art cover (for the Lion hearts releases). The owner told me that he had mentioned the problem to Lion Hearts and that they answered that some of the covers had too dark colours and that they'll try to do better... Don't buy from Thaimegamart : I had a problem last summer and I never heard from them anymore after I placed my order (fortunately, paypal managed to give me the refund...)

Member Lady Jin Szu-Yi Posted October 1, 2015 Member Share Posted October 1, 2015 FarEastFlix has been hit and miss as far as "remastered" versions (got a few dodgy Shaws from them), but I understand. Best bet is still eBay although you may find something on YesAsia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Lady Jin Szu-Yi Posted October 6, 2015 Member Share Posted October 6, 2015 Thai Deltamacs - a couple of good sellers on eBay: daniel in taiwan and moblesuit. For IVLs on eBay, I've had perfect relations with moblesuit, dvdroad and a couple more Hong Kong sellers whose names escape me right now. Found a lot of what I wanted through these folks and all rather reasonably (considering how scarce some of the IVLs are. Couldn't believe a recent auction for a sealed IVL of Shaolin Abbot was over $200. ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
