Hey! I'm super new to the forums (So apologies if I accidentally break any minor rules, I've read over the rules and I don't think I am) and I've got a question regarding the legitimacy of some eva plat collections

I'm looking at http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Neon-Genesis-Evangelion-Platinum-Edition-All-26-Episodes-Complete-Region-4-/201726750435?hash=item2ef7d9eee3:g:L5MAAOSwiONYNRnY plat collection and I'm not sure about how legit it is. The seller seems real, and everything seems to line up with the appearance of this r4 plat collection released http://www.shintokyo.com.au/main/NR_MADMAN_AUGUST2009.htm (I know that Shin Tokyo is a real store as I frequent their physical location)

My main concerns are that the seller didn't show any side shots and the description is a template copy/paste from their other items for sale, as well as the fact another eva plat collection is being sold by a completely fresh account which I know is bootleg http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Neon-Genesis-Evangelion-Platinum-Collection-DVD-2006-7-Disc-Set-/172419546755?hash=item2825017e83:g:DkUAAMXQ3kNTjKdO

I'm very new to the DVD scene in general so I don't really know what to be looking look out for, so any pointers would be highly appreciated!

Thank you in advance

I wouldn't buy from them unless they put up photographs of the actual item they're selling, in sufficient enough quality and quantity to determine that it is the genuine article. You can request this sort of thing from a seller. If they don't oblige, they don't deserve your money.
