I have been looking on ebay and some other ad site for the movie Song of the South for my son for Christmas. I know I need it in the American video format. I have seen 2 different offers at ebay and this other similar site: one where the seller has copied the tape from a lazer disk and claims that this is a very clear copy but there are japanese subtitles at part of the songs and two, some sellers are offering to sell a pal tape that they have converted by video dealers they know and they claim that the price is right and the dealer has done a great job for them.
I know I can also buy it through the UK and get a pal tape and converted tape for a total of $72 but that sounds too expensive.
Also, from what I have heard from local video dealers, the problem is that in the conversion process, sometimes there are light fluctuations that result that can be annoying. So, even if I buy the $72 tapes, I do I know that the conversion they used is clear.
Can anybody give me some guidance here? The prices on ebay are so different, one person is offering to sell the pal for $1 but why would they?
