hey, I know that theres a post on how to identify bootlegs, but I"m really not sure with this one.

http://www.[This URL is a known Bootlegging website]/detail.asp?dvdno=15897&cateName=Rahxephon

I think it may be because of the price, it is region free, and has 26 episodes on 3 discs.

does anybody know?

Thanks

Well if the clues you already posted didn't prove it to you, now you know.

That's like the most obvious clues to it being bootleg.

1. region free
2. 26 episode on 3 dvd (original Rahxephon series is 7 DVD)

You might also want tlook at the packaging, they usually come in gatefold.

The Rahxephon thinpak are pretty cheap, if you must get it, than pick it up on DDD for about 60 dollar or wait until DDD has a 20%off sale during November.
