So is this a scam?

I think it's a matter of taste. I personally wouldn't give .99 for the whole thing.

meaning its stolen?

i've seen this before. they're imports from Hong Kong and not the original product. I ordered the Tenchi Muyo series a few years back form Sundevil DVD. The picture on the site was the original set but the box I got was different and it had spelling mistakes all over it. I thought they were burned copies or whatever, but they're just imports from Hong Kong.

Trigun is an 8 disc release in the US. These are either DVD-R or HK bootlegs.

It's likely a Hong-Kong release. They usually are sub-vcr video quality, and unbearable English translations.

Of course, this copy could be the diamond in the rough!

HK knockoffs FTL. If you're not getting full quality and the money isn't going to the license owner, then may as well steal it off the net instead of giving money to someone else who stole it. :roll: HK knockoffs are as bad as people selling fansubs.
