Auctions and these so-called DVDs

After reading a thread on Auctions here, I noticed that on Yahoo there are quite a few Star Wars DVDs as well as new releases of major films.
They claim 5.1 sound and mention DVD not VCD.

What are these discs? Are they laser disc cut onto CD using MPEG2 coding or copies of videos?

Is it all a big con? I presume its not legal due to claims of Star Wars been on DVD which we all know Lucas is not going to do just yet.

F*****G PIRATES!!!!

THEY p*** ME OFF!!!

the auctions are absolutely littered with bastards sellong these so called region 0 dvds and having the balls to sell them more than an original would cost, with star wars a big favourite for them. however some of the star wars vcds are legit, as lucasfilm officially released the trilogy in asia.
