So a bulk buy is when a group of respectable and trustworthy members participate and pitch in to buy wrestling dvds from a good tape trader and everyone gets a copy of each one. Say for instance 10 of us participate, we go to an agreed upon tape site and order the ten dvds, each one of us paying for one apiece. Then with everyone throwing in a few bucks extra, someone who's hella cool and has some spare time can burn 9 copies of each dvd so everyone winds up with their original copy plus a copy of the other nine tapes. So it's basically ten tapes for the price of one. I don't know how much people are down into viewing other stuff outside the E and TNA, but there is some seriously good shit out there. I bet guys like HTK, Montana and Chuck Taylor's Explosive Device might be interested and there would be a plethora of tastes involved. I don't really want to be the guy who arranges everything, just the guy who gets the ball rolling, it could be really fun. I'm just sending this out as a feeler, so if you might be interested, say so.

It's going to be hard for me to choose a tape

I'd do this. I mean I wouldn't be the guy to burn them, but I'd do the rest. I want to venture out on other wrestling since I stopped watching WWE and TNA is .. well TNA. But I don't want to spend alot of money on indy dvds when I know nothing about them so this would be a good deal.

I would also be interested in this, much like J Bonez I want to venture into indy and other forms of wrestling outside WWE and TNA, but I am not to willing to pay $10-15 a pop (just guesstimating) for a DVD of and indy promotion I know nothing about, but from the sounds of this it could be a good, and cost efffective way of me gaining some indy wrestling exposure without paying massive amounts of money (for a college student, money is a major issue)

Well this cat has custom comps of EVERYTHING. And I do mean EVERYTHING. From shoot interviews, to "Best Ofs" and he does ten discs for 2 bucks each. So if everyone throws in maybe like twenty bucks, ten for 5 discs, ten for shipping and the costs of blank discs, you can have what...like 30 discs of wrestling. You can't beat that.

Yeah Enzo, that sounds like a killer deal and these are your basic DVD-R disks I'm assuming? So that they can play on any DVD player/computer/game console.

Nice idea but I don't trust any of you and I certainly wouldn't give you my home address. I just think of what I would do with it.

As long as your player isn't old or anal about these sort of things.

Awesome. This could be the spark that lights the flame in me liking wrestling as I once did.
It's what turned me into a snobby smark. I suggest go checking out the site and seeing what might pique your interest.

I would NEVER question your integrity, good sir. You are the epitome of trustworthiness and your character is flawless.

But seriously, no foreigners. I don't think anyone wants to deal with the extra shipping costs and the whatnot.

Also, if this does get done, we still need the straightman to be the middle man and everyone needs to have a verifiable paypal.

Ok thanks Enzo, this sounds pretty interesting. From the time I was a little kid and learned about "tape trading" when I was 12 or 13 I was always curious as to what exactly it was and how you got involved in it. I have always been curious about Indy wrestling, but I never really knew how to follow/watch it without paying a shitload of money lol.
