I don't know if anyone has mentioned this before, so please forgive me:
Theory #1:
We all know that new titles are CHEAP if you buy them the week they come out right? Well, for the titles I'm not sure I'll like, i.e. K-19: The Widowmaker, I can go buy NEW for $15.99 or so @ CC or BB and then if I don't like it, sell it the next day on Amazon or Half.com for often $2+ more than what I paid for it. This means I am getting PAID to "rent" movies!! True, it might be a hassel to some, but when you pay $3-4 to rent a title at Blockbuster, or have to wait days or weeeks to get it from Netflix....why not??
Theory #2:
I bought Band of Brothers for $54 or whatever from Amazon.ca right? Well, I could have bought multiple copies on my credit card, and went and sold them for $70++ on half.com. Keeping one copy for myself of course....So if I went around and sold 3 copies I would have my set paid for. Hmmm....with BTTF coming out next week at a rock-bottom price @ BB probably, and brand-new ones going for $50+ on half.com......I think it's a no brainer.
Now, maybe I shouldn't have shared this money making nuggest with you all, but why not.....All I need now is room on my credit card to buy extra copies
