TAPE PIRACY

[TheBrollachan]

There have been no official releases of Knightmare on video or DVD, so any copies on sale are pirated and illegal. For those not aware Tim Child visits these forums, so to those promoting these sort of things be afraid beveryafraid.

Yes the titles in series 4 change slightly and Treguard has an elf assistant from series 4 to 6. ...still he's better than Majida.

Right I'm off to hide before HStorm finds me

Yeah - Debz is aware of the DVD and vid situation - she's a major old timer!

[Debz_g]

Oi less of the old, missus!

Yes I was aware of the situation, hence the reason I posted.

[Kieran]

The less said about 'tape trading' the better, am sure people are more aware of that than others.

I spotted this last night, at least the starting bid is not near £45 as it usually is.

[TheBrollachan]

It's cheaper to subscribe to Challenge via Cable or Sky.

[Debz_g]

Well the person doing it, hadn't any idea that selling recordings of television programmes was illegal and now that she does she has taken the tapes off of Ebay.

[Madmogsue]

thats good to hear.

Someone shut him down!

[TheBrollachan]

Not for long I suspect, it has now been reported to eBay.

[Illusion]

Unfortunatly there have been quite a few more Kmare videos on eBay in recent months. I have reported all that I have seen.

[HeathclifftheBard]

Jeez, that's whack, Jack. These cretins we would be soon without, if a Knightmare DVD were out.

Arg. Brollachan said it had been reported to ebay, I reported it to ebay, and it is still up there! And someone has bid on it! Despicable.

[Malefact]

Well, that's business - if you can't get done for it and it makes money, you do it regardless of how much it stinks morally. Look at smoking.

[Illusion]

Indeed. Another thing I have seen on eBay is people selling unofficial Knightmare T-Shirts for £19.95! Have just reported one listing on currently.

[TheBrollachan]

Were there any official T-shirts?

[Illusion]

There were indeed official T-Shirts (and Sweatshirts):

T-shirts

Edition 1: White with Knightmare Castle, luminous lightning and red logo [1988-90]

Edition 2: White with Frightknight symbol and Knightmare logo in red and silver [1991-92]

Edition 3: Blood red with new Frightknight symbol and Knightmare logo in black [1992-94]

Sweatshirts

Edition 1: Black with luminous life-force symbol and red Knightmare logo [1988-90]

Edition 2: Royal blue with silver Knightmare logo [1991-92]

Edition 3: Blood red with new Frightknight symbol and Knightmare logo in black [1992-94]

Note that this does not include:

Picture of Treguard nicked from The Dragon's Lair cover with dodgy 'Knightmare' logo at the top.

[TheBrollachan]

Don't worry, I have a feel that these people may be in for a Oooh Nasty suprise.

(Appologies for bad pun)

[Kieran]

I spotted another auction offering 'rare' Knightmare items with the help of Robin.

I sent a question to the seller and have found out he is attempting to sell KM DVDs as his 'rare' item.

I hope my email back to him will be a good enough warning for him to stop.

[Fidjit]

What kind of punishment can this lead to if this doesn't cease?
