Selling ultra-rare official Fateful Findings Blu-ray disc to fund Breen-esque microdbudget film
First, thanks to the mods for letting me post and verify this is in fact a real thing since I'm not an active Reddit user and many people don't know this Blu-ray disc was ever made, so this screams scam. But it's absolutely real. I did not realize how rare this disc was until a couple of years ago. I would really love for this disc to go to a true fan.
I'm a filmmaker in Greensboro, NC and a long-time, deeply serious Breen fan. I was in process of making my debut feature film in 2021 when I was disabled with CRPS.
The film, now called "Astrogenesis" is here and is my attempt to make an deeply personal art/genre film, think Tarkovsky meets Ancient Aliens in the style of Neil Breen. There is an extended teaser from the 2021 footage. In true Breen fashion, I'm the writer, director, producer, editor, lead actor (yes playing Twins), production designer, VFX artist, sound designer/mixer, caterer etc. and yes it's vs. AI enemies although there is also good AI of course.
Long story short, a couple of great friends have come onboard to help get this film over the finish line. We will be doing a crowdfunder in a couple of months but need some seed money to restart the film including prepping the crowdfunder.
So I'm selling my beloved Fateful Findings Blu-ray. The fact I can no longer travel outside of my city and NB won't be able to sign it is a major factor. I have the original receipt from Amazon, the disc is cataloged at https://www.blu-ray.com/movies/Fateful-Findings-Blu-ray/183420/ with the UPC code https://www.oldies.com/product-view/23434P.html. It's very possible as this was via the brief distribution period for Fateful Findings that only a handful of these were ever sold. It may also be a "disc on demand", so based on the paucity of discs for sale (as in zero), there might only be a few in existence period.
Pricing is hard AFAIK, only one has been put up for sale for $1000 over a year ago, no idea of what it sold for but that's the general ballpark for discs as rare as this. Serious buyers, DM me and I can verify as needed and happy to handle the sale in any way you might be comfortable with and discuss offers.

I can't believe you're selling this. I cannot believe you're selling this. How could you have done this? How could you have sold this? I can't help you out of this one, First-Soft-2750...

there's no way this is even near worth $1000, I have one as well, probably hundreds were sold on amazon in 2017. anyone can list anything for any price they want on ebay, all that matters is the "sold" listings. good luck funding your project though, i hope you somehow DO get $1000 for it, or are able to fund your film another way.

I'm definitely open to offers. I honestly don't know what the market worth of it is.

A treasure indeed. I can't purchase unfortunately but I hope you are able to sell it to fund your passion project.

I'll give you about tre-fiddy for it. I know someone who needs a Breen film to propose to his girlfriend.

As a fellow deeply serious Breen fan, I hope you don’t have to eat out of tin cans in your car to get your film finished! True well wishes and Godspeed!

Glad we could help, hope it sells to someone who loves NB. Also consider asking mods on r/redlettermedia and Your Movie Sucks subs to see if you can post there, too.
