Anyone read / speak German? Help?

Post by Zag »

I'm trying to negotiate a sale for Jura Tripper DVDs released in Germany.
We're communicating primarily through a translation website. But I'd like to be sure I know what is being said.

This is what they emailed me.
Über preis wird erst dann gesprochen wenn ich weiss wie du es haben möchtest! Normale dvd´s oder welche zum bedrucken mit oder ohne cover und dvd hüllen!
I ... THINK... this says that she's happy to sell them to me if I like, .. something about the price being different for original DVDs or rips without cover or box.

Any suggestions / assistance appreciate. :)

And Yes, it's very sad that someone with a last name like Hegenberger can only read rudimentary German, can't speak it worth a damn, or understand it spoken. What can I say!? I'm American, but at least I'm trying. XD

"we'll talk about the price when I know how you would like them.
normal dvd's or which ones with or without "prints" or dvd (cases ?) "


My german is very rusty but that seems about right. ...
Or you could ask one of the German Betarians, like Zetsuai. :)

The Doctor : … and then, just to finish off, I’m going to wipe every last stinking Dalek out of the sky !
Dalek : But you have no weapons ! No defenses ! No plan !
The Doctor : Yeah ! And doesn’t that scare you to death ?

here I am ... :) ... let's try it:
Über preis wird erst dann gesprochen wenn ich weiss wie du es haben möchtest! Normale dvd´s oder welche zum bedrucken mit oder ohne cover und dvd hüllen!
"only if I know in which way you want to have it, we can talk about the price! normal dvd's or such which can be printed with or without covers and cases"

so I don't think the seller is taking about the original Jura Tripper DVDs released in Germany you're searching for ...

Here is what the seller says:

"We will talk about the price after I know exactly how you want it. Normal DVD's, or DVD's that can be printed on, with or without the DVD covers and dvd cases."

Hey Zag, that wasn't bad for a quick scan, and was about the same as I came up with using my rusty 25 year old German classes.

Don't feel bad. My maiden name was French. About the only things I remember how to say in French are "red," "potato," "bathroom," and "on the table." Which are not necessarily part of the same sentence, don't you know.
"The permanent temptation of life is to confuse dreams with reality. The permanent defeat of life comes when dreams are surrendered to reality."

Yes, sdaly she says:
Hab ich selber gemacht! Sind keine originalle!!!!
So, they are rips, add to that they're only in german.
I want to obtain the official release, in hopes that it has the
original Japanese language selection.
I'll let her know that, maybe she can still give me an idea where to go.

Thanks for all the help!

My email to her. I hope this isn't gibberish.

>> Ich mag normales DVD, für japanische Sprache. Haben Sie sie, oder kennen irgendwo, sie zu erhalten? Code 0, 1. Bitte lassen Sie mich wissen. Vielen Dank für Schicken per E-Mail mich.
Es tut ich Leid, wenn ich hart bin, zu verstehen.

I'm trying to say that "I want normal DVDs, because of the japanese language. Does she have them, or know where I can get them. Region codes 0, or 1. and to Please let me know."
and an apology for my horrible german. XD

I'm sure, that the german version will contain the japanese version as well ... like they do it with the most anime here ... but untill now there does not exist any german dvd version of "Der Planet der Dinosaurier" (I looked it up) ...

Poot. Well, thanks for the help. If she made these discs herself she must have downloaded the show from SOMEWHERE... ...
