    I Made a Huge mistake a while back that I'll never Make again, I purchased a bootleg / Illeagel copy DVD!!! I would like to start by making it clear that this was not my intention, I simply saw the Movie I wanted and bought... I never read the feedback, Now I have. The seller (who's name I'm not allowed to mention) Has had 284 negative feedbacks out of 1100 recieved in the last year, All of them complaining about - You guessed it - Bootleg copies... Now scince recieving this DVD I have contacted the company who's movie it was (universal) and I sent them the movie and they say that they will be taking leagel action against the seller (I also included the name and address too which I sent the money order) so I got my revenge - and the truth of it is I'm only out $6 so big woop right? Wrong, I feel cheated!! I'm part of a comunity based on trust. When I sell an Item in my store I make sure my custimer gets what he/she is paying for. Illeagel copies are not what a person is paying for. The true victem here is all of us!!!

    You see when a studio makes a movie they expect a certain return on that movie... The illeagel copy takes away from that return!!! No big deal right?? Wrong!!! If the studio doesn't get it's money back the start paying less for the films, Then the films get worse - less entertaining - less realistice... eventually we stop watching them altogether and the studio goes out of buisness....

    Now do you see why I feel cheated?!!?!?!?! I Love movies, I love them enough that when I see a good one, I pay the $12 more to see it again - Then I pay My $20 for the REAL DVD - and I am happy nowing that my $44 dollars went to funding the next great movie. SO PLEASE READ YOUR FEEDBACK AND DON'T BY BOOTLEGS!!!  Do it for the love of movies....

Thanx from your friends at:
