My Police Story 3 finally arrived but it looks like this.

Is this a counterfeit? No DVD case and no sleeve, just printed card and the disc in a wallet. Or is that just how some Chinese DVd's are?

Same slipcase and disc as my PS3 from Zoke. Maybe they saved on postage by not including the case, but they could have at least included a cover for it.
But I also received a DVD-9 of Tiger Cage 2 once that had the case, slipcase, but no cover.

It was advertised as 'New and sealed' yet my disc is really scuffed up and obviously it's just a printed piece of cardboard with it. Don't you think it's a counterfeit? It can't be an official product, surely?

Where did you get it from? I got mine from a seller on Ebay.

Me too, from hoteluvenus, who did you get it from?
Was going to get it from hongkongposter who has the picture as an actual case version with slightly different front cover and I've used them before a few times and they have been very trustworthy and quick to post.
Only got it elsewhere to save like $2 or something

Jackie Chan "Police Story 3" Michelle Yeoh HK 1992 DVD | eBay

Oh well, guess it is what it is then. Shame cos it's not going to look great on the shelf squashed and hidden between Police Story 2 and First Strike. It'll look all wrong

This is exactly what the one I ordered from YesAsia looked like when it came through. Been meaning to post about it on here, not happy with the lack of cover art on the DVD case, but I guess we'll have to put up with it until something better comes along.

What did you make of the pic quality btw Ant?

Hongkongposter had the complete package then?
Ordered from them myself a couple of times.
Some Thai dvd's are sold like that,guess some Chinese as well.

If the disc is scuffed badly maybe a refund could be in order?

Just checked and hoteluvenus is located in China (mainland) where hongkongposter is located in Hong Kong.
Still makes a difference I suppose...

I thought it looked great to be honest but I've only ever seen it on VHS before. No worse than any other DVD I thought.
