THIS REVIEW IS TO HELP WITH BUYING AND SELLING VHS AND DVD MOVIES.  THERE ARE ALOT OF MOIVES OUT THERE FOR SALE EITHER ON EBAY, LOCAL VIDEO STORES, AND RETAIL STORES.  WHEN BUYING NEW DVD AND VHS MOVIES THE BUYER EXPECTS THAT THE ITEM IS NEW AND WITHOUT NO DEFECTS ON THE ITEM AND ALSO THAT IT WILL PLAY PROPERLY.  IF THERE ARE A DEFECT(S) ON THE VHS OR DVD MOVIE PURCHASED MAKE SURE THAT THE SELLER HAS A SPECIFIED RETURN POLICY FOR RETURNING THE ITEM BOUGHT AS WELL AS AN EXCHANGE POLICY.  SINCE I WORK IN RETAIL ALSO IT IS ALWAYS HELPFUL AND QUICKER FOR ANY RETURN OR EXCHANGE ITEM THAT HAS A RECIEPT WITH THE ITEM SO THAT YOU CAN BE IN AND OUT OF ANY STORE OR ON EBAY.  WHEN BUYING USED VHS MOVIES AND DVD MOVIES OF ANY TITLE AT A LOCAL VIDEO STORE  EXAMINE THE COVER TO SEE HOW WORN IT IS AND EXAMINE THE DVD DISC OR VHS TAPE TO SEE IF THERE ARE ANY SCRATCHES, SCUFFES, TEARS, OR PIECES BROKEN OFF THAT MIGHT OR WILL EFFECT THE PLAYING QUALITY OF ANY PARTICULAR MOVIE AND IF THERE IS MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THE RECIEPT HANDY FOR ANY EXCHANGE OR REFUND IF THE VHS OR DVD MOVIE IS DEFECTIVE WHEN BOUGHT AT ANY RENTAL VIDEO STORE.  WHEN BUYING USED VHS AND DVD MOVIES ON EBAY; READ THE ITEM DESCRIPTION CAREFULLY ON THE ITEM YOU ARE LOOKING AT, WRITE DOWN NOTES ABOUT ALL THE LISTINGS ABOUT THE ITEM YOU ARE LOOKING AT,   COMPARE THE NOTES BETWEEN SELECTED ITEMS LISTED FOR THE VHS OR DVD MOVIE, DOES THE SELLER OFFER INSURANCE, RETURN POLICY, WHAT SHIPPING AND HANDLING IS, COMBINED SHIPPING FOR MULTIPLE ITEMS WON.  WHEN I PURCHASED 3 VHS AND DVD ITEMS IN THE PAST I FOUND OUT THAT THE ITEM RECIEVED WAS DIFFERENT THAT WHAT WAS LISTED.  FOR EXAMPLE I RECIEVED TERMINATOR 2 JUDGEMENT DAY DVD THAT I PURCHASED THRU AN AUCTION AND WHEN I RECIEVED THE ITEM AND PLAYED THE DVD DISC IT WAS SKIPPING ABOUT 3/4'S INTO THE MOVIE AND THERE WAS A MAJOR SCRATCH ON THE DVD DISC FOR VIEWING THE MOVIE AND WASN'T STATED IN THE LISTING.  ALSO IT IS ALSO HELPFUL TO ASK QUESTIONS ABOUT AN ITEM TO THE SELLER THAT IS SELLING THE ITEM(S) THAT YOU WISH TO PURCHASE.
