Title: 'The Collection' DVD
Post by: flahhh on February 13, 2007, 07:03:12 pm
I've just found an amazing DVD, I believe it's only available on a South American website.

http://produto.mercadolivre.com.br/MLB-53668810-dvd-vanessa-carlton-the-collection-_JM

A friend of mine bought it for $15 and said it was worth.
I want to buy one too, but I'm afraid of buying outside the country..

Seems like a good DVD, but I don't know Spanish well enough to buy anything off that site... And I dunno, I've had some pretty good pop-tarts.

Who is Vanessa Carlton?
Vanessa Carlton is not your average pop-tart, oh no! This classically trained pianist from Pennsylvania is one of the finest and freshest new faces to hit the music scene in recent years! Piano-singer-songwriter returns with Harmonium, the follow-up to her platinum selling first album Be Not Nobody. In her latest album, Vanessa has grown and heads in a new direction but remains rooted with the strong melodies and lyrics that made her first album so great. Be prepared to be blown away by this compilation of her greatest material, including live performances, music videos and much more!

yeah.. this sounds like something someone put together.. aka it's not legit, and it's not legal.

Yup and it's basically worth the price of a dvd-r, which is what? 50 cents?  :lol:

Hi guys! I just ordered mine. I watched my friend's DVD and it's P-E-R-F-E-C-T! The cover is lovely and the quality is amazing! I did it because I found out that the website (Mercadolivre.com.br) is just like Ebay. In fact, is associated with it.
Anyway, I didn't ordered it from the website, I ordered it directly from the seller by e-mail.
I payed 20 dollars (including shipping costs) and i hope it doesn't take too long to get here. I'll let you guys know when I get it. And yes, I am still waiting for her official one.

PRobably the difference between Brazilian dollars and U.S. dollars.

Dollar's worth like twice Brazilian's money... It depends on the day I guess.
So that's something to celebrate! It's waiting mine... can't wait!

Well, I already have most of the things of that list on my pc, and I'm not really interested on the ones that I don't have, so I won't get it. If it was legal we would have known of it from official sources.

Besides how do we know it even exists?, it could all be a fraud.
I don't mean to offend anyone but the user that started this thread is the only user that says he has seen it, he's been a member for just a few days, and he has only 3 posts, all of them on this thread promoting the DVD. Also I think the picture of the cover is from a photoshoot that Vanessa did for a magazine about music or pianos or something.

Isn't that suspicious?

Guess it didn't take too long for me to register in this forum... considering I've been a fan for like 3 months only... Anyway, I should have registered sooner but since non-registered users are able to read the threads I thought, for me, it really wasn't necessary... then I found the dvd and I thought it was a good way to start. Just thought you would like to know, that was all. My bad. There's no reason to be suspicious at all,  I'm not telling you to order it or anything. REALLY, I'm just sharing information. And I promise you it was the last time.

If the disc is illegal, the seller may go to jail, but I don't think they're going to track you down.  I mean, this is Brazil!
