Great stuff, Chad! Thanks for sharing!

Apparently I'm the only person in the world that cares about bootleg Disney movies being sold on eBay, lol. An email I sent off to the "Disney Antipiracy Department":
"Hello? Anyone home? I simply ask because whoever ---WHOEVER--- is working there, whether it's one person, or a group, or an entire department, you should all be FIRED.
Why can't you stop the sale of bootleg DVDs on major sales outlets? It's EASY to find them! While searching for A Bug's Life, I came across these:

https://www.ebay.com/itm/DISNEYS-A-B...ss!89032!US!-1

I came across those in SECONDS. This is an every day, every time thing. Do you not care about doing a good job? I don't get it. It's your JOB to stop these things from happening, yet douchebags make THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS selling bootleg movies to naďve people. Congratulations on letting people get taken advantage of. Get your shit together, Disney.

How can you tell those are bootlegs?
I think it's because it has the cardboard sleeve. Dont think they came with that sleeve originally so someone added it then resealed it or it's a bootleg
Interesting that the last 2 say there is no disney reward, although you can clearly see it marked on the back. Why would it be gone if it is factory sealed.
Speaking of the disney rewards, last week I just went through all my blu-rays/4K movies and retrieved the digital copies. I also claimed all the disney
rewards. While some of the digital copies either had expired and the old ones that used a separate disk no longer worked, I think all the Disney ones
did work. With the disney rewards I was able to save up to get 6 27x40 double sided movie posters. I just got another movie yesterday, and with
the points and my left over points should probalby have enough for 1 more poster. I just got the posters on Mon and Tue. Now need to buy 6 more
poster frames.

The easiest ways to spot Disney fakes are as follows:
- The slipcover and the plastic case have plastic around them. Legit Disney movies (with the exception of literally one or two titles) only have plastic around the case. The slipcover is NEVER wrapped.
- Typos
- Square cutouts on the back of the slipcover, where legit movies are all rectangular. A handful of legit slipcovers don't have a cutout, but 99.9% do.

Hi Shannon, is you expertise limited to Disney movies? I bought a Harry Potter 4K (UK) collection from some british company called TheHut, but I suspect it is bootleg. (there are some disc's that I honestly feel the blu-ray version is superior)

Just limited to Disney, sorry. But I did a bunch of searches on TheHut and found absolutely no mention of bootlegs. Most of their complaints, which aren't many, come from bad customer service, being sent the wrong item/size, and slow shipping. The normal stuff. Now, TheHut might be a third party site that gives their customers access to items not normally available in their area, such as hidefninja.com so issues might come from those third party merchants.
Searched for bootleg versions of your Harry Potter set and there ARE some out there. Some of the things I've seen: Some of the backs are blue (like copied Blu-Rays) or purple, some of the lettering on the discs is smudged and/or trailing off the side of the disc, some of the discs say "disc 1" on them, like the artwork was pulled from something online.
Bummer man.

I received this negative reputation comment - not from Ben Staad - for this post.
You don’t discuss... you talk down to people, or just sound annoyed with their perspective.
I do discuss. So you're a liar.
I suppose if you see yourself as small and me as above you then from your perspective I'm talking down. I can't do anything about your insecurities.
What you are hearing and what I'm am saying are likely different things. Although the perspective of ill-informed people such as yourself is certainly annoying, so my exasperation with your ignorance and stupidity might come through in my comments.
What I don't do is give people negative reputation while hiding behind anonymity like a cowardly bitch.
I'm brutally honest. Some weak people can't deal with that.

It would nice if usernames were attached to feedback. Or negative feedback at least. On the bright side you get a DT bookmark!
