That’s good info. However I think you also need a CD pressing plant to use it. Combining this with CD-R just sounds like another nightmare problem.

Still, it would seem to indicate that a more cooperative pressing plant could probably make CDVs now if they had one of these and it still worked. Its likely to be expensive though.

Hey can't blame a guy for trying haha, more likely to sell over there than over here. Still more fair than the $1k each that dude in Chicago was charging people a few years ago.

Yeah, good luck with that one.
If you ask 300 per roll of TP you can at least use it while waiting for that special person.

Don't admonish too much; the special person might pick up that astro-boy box set as well.....

Yeah, seemed to be a case of milk us and then try to exploit them. I'm totally prepared to call that out.

Lol, I'll trade for 3 karaoke discs and a chocolate chip cookie. But the cookie will have a bite out of it.


I can't say I'm surprised at all. I could see this coming from the first post.

Two pieces of cookie, could be a cookie broken in 4 and you only give 2 pieces as you ate the rest :lol:

One could use the testuwan atom box for TP as it has actual paper not that RLV which is all plastic case and disc which would hurt :sick:

Edit:
So I've been sitting around thinking and I think I should be getting close to 14K on my Tetsuwan Atom set as it is the largest
and oldest single box set of LDs ever made.

For the record I didn't get them expecting to flip them, I got them with the full intention of putting something them, and when both you guys and reddit informed me it was impossible that's when I decided to sell. I even mentioned how much I was looking for here, and on Reddit before making the Facebook listing.

I also updated both the Wikipedia page and the LDDB pages for the RLV discs, saying I used this site to milk information to make money is complete BS.

EDIT:

8 bucks :think:

I highly doubt you will be trading an even up for Twin Peaks to blanks.

I want to say there was someone here years ago who had them on ebay selling them for around 15 or 20 a blank.
But one has to think if all who wanted them got them???

Good luck on flipping them, did you try facebook ldforever??


It should be noted, this is why I even made the post on the facebook group, as you recommended me trying to sell them there.

I mentioned three pages ago that I wanted to trade these for some Twin Peaks LD's, and you're the one who told me that they were likely worth far more than that set, which is currently going for $269 on LDDB.

So am I not allowed to sell something that I no longer want, now knowing that I can't use them? Even if they're just blank discs they're still worth something to someone even if that someone isn't you or me. I've been nothing but friendly to you on this website, and I've been honest from the get-go in my intentions with these discs- so why do you feel the need to personally insult me?

What are you even calling out? I was asking the same price on this very thread (almost three pages ago) and on Reddit. I was answering questions on the facebook post about these discs and giving links to this thread and the reddit one for more information. I have since deleted the facebook post because I was concerned about you doxxing me.

If I were in the same position as you, I'd probably try to sell or trade at least one of them too. They're cool collectables and I'd still probably keep at least the other one for the time being because hey, how many people can say they have a blank RLV disc lying about? It's certainly a lot more interesting than another copy of 6th Day or something. But I could certainly use the money more than I need one of these discs. Maybe even trade one for a better player...
