Greetings!
You can see from my positive reviews on eBay that I am the real deal!

You can message me on there to verify that it is indeed me, despecialized
Thanks for your interest in the SW Trilogy Despecialized Editions. First of all, allow me to emphasize that I'm simply a fellow Star Wars fan helping others discover this amazing project. Credit for its actual creation goes to Harmy along with countless others who have dedicated their time, skills, and resources toward this restoration. Getting copies of the Despecialized Editions ('DE') can be a hurdle if you don't know what you're doing, so I'm here to help.
Remember, as with any fan edit, YOU MAY ONLY OWN THIS IF YOU ARE A LEGAL OWNER OF THE OFFICIAL SOURCE. For Harmy's DE project, this means YOU MUST OWN AN OFFICIAL HD RELEASE for each respective film (i.e. Star Wars Episodes IV, V, & VI), such as the official Blu-ray Discs or digital purchases.
This Star Wars fan community is built on the honor system, so your word is sufficient. Simply realize that if people who don't own legal copies of the Star Wars Original Trilogy obtain the DE, it's entirely possible that the entire project will be shut down before it's finished due to piracy allegations. So please encourage people to support the Star Wars franchise and purchase the official releases!
I am only selling you the time it took to create this wonderful set, with the cost of the ink, blank Blu-rays, Blu-ray cases, the time it took to cut and format everything. Trust me, it is not easy making these sets. I am throwing in the content for free because you already own a format of the official source.
THIS IS A 3 DISC SET
THESE ARE MADE TO ORDER!
IT WILL TAKE ME UP TO ONE WEEK TO MAKE A SET AND MAIL IT OUT TO YOU!
IT IS WORTH THE WAIT, THIS SET IS THE BEST ON THE MARKET!
IT IS BEAUTIFUL TO BEHOLD!
These are normal Blu-ray discs, if you have a Blu-ray player, these will work!
These will work on PS3, PS4, PS4 Pro, Xbox One, Xbox One X, Blu-ray Players, 4K Blu-ray Players, etc. Just make sure they have the latest firmware installed.
DISCS ARE REGION FREE
SAMSUNG 4K BLU-RAY PLAYERS DO NOT PLAY 50GB BD-R DISCS - THESE WILL NOT WORK UNTIL THEY UPDATE THEIR FIRMWARE TO DO SO!
Other 4K Blu-ray Players work just fine. I personally test them on an Oppo UDP-203.
Each set is hand made so there may be some slight imperfections with the cutting, folding, printing etc. I do my best to make each set perfect but I am a one man team.
PLEASE NOTE*
This is a Grindhouse release, which means that these have not been DNR'ed. They still have scratches, burn ins, dirt, etc. It is a direct scan of the film reels with just a basic color correction applied. This is meant to look like it has been running at a drive in for months, so you get that dirty old projector feel.
What the set contains:
The cases are Clear Viva Elite 3 disc cases.
The Blu-ray cases have single sided color printed artwork.
Each disc has color printed labels. These are not the stick on kind. These are special discs that get the artwork printed straight on them.
All are the latest and greatest versions.

Now that was a lot of information!!!
Don't pass this up!
Feel free to message me with any questions!
I will ship this in a bubble mailer via USPS Priority mail with delivery confirmation and insurance.
International will be shipped via USPS First Class International Mail.
I am working on upgrading/expanding/completing the Special Edition visual changes for eventual use on savestarwars.com, but figured I'd share it outside of that thread for those interested. I used WookieGroomer's Splitscreen 1080p wmv to take the frame-by-frame shots, and msycamore provided the 1997 screencaps.
I'm still tweaking it, especially the text. Please submit suggestions for possible text and let me know if I missed anything.
The most interesting thing we've noticed is that each wipe from 2004 starts early enough to cover up the original optical wipe and the fades from black start a lot later, almost as if they were trying to cover up the original wipes instead of recreating them. This goes against all previously known facts about the wipes.
