What can I do with my 5 free BDs? - Blu-ray Forum

fattymcgee311 · 03-10-2008, 05:46 PM

I just got my 5 free BDs in the mail on Saturday from that Holiday Blu-Ray offer and I didn't get one of the BDs that I had requested and I am not really interested in seeing the movies that I received. Is there anything I can do to get different ones, like taking them to Wal-Mart or Best Buy and exchanging them for something else. I know that it might not be the most "kosher" thing to do with the movies, but I don't want to have a bunch of movies in my collection that I never watch and I haven't even taken the plastic packaging off of them yet. Any ideas?

i don't know, you mean they sent you something you didn't pick? Thats messed up, wait that long and get something wrong

The Last Waltz (Not really into the music)
POTC (Already bought it because I wasn't expecting it)
The Patriot (Already bought it)
Superman (Seen it over 100 times since its release three decades ago)
The last one I don't remember but it was some horror movie that I had never heard of.

Some of them, like "The Last Waltz" wasn't even one of the options to choose from in the first place. I don't know how or why they decided to throw that in there.

I know I can sell them on ebay, but I was looking for more of a quick trade for something else rather than getting money for them. If I sell them, the money will end up in my bank account and my wife will insist that I just keep the money.

I need more BDs.

Dump your unwanted BDs in ebay. Always works for me.

You can exchange them at Best Buy as long as you haven't returned anything without a receipt in the past year.

All five of them?

DC_Street · 03-10-2008, 07:32 PM

wasn't there another thread about this? If I remember correctly you can call them up and tell them that you received the wrong movies and they will send you the correct ones and let you keep the ones that you have.

I read about that but I am moving out of my apartment in one month. I don't want it to take another eight to nine weeks to get here. Their customer service is extremely lame.

DC_Street · 03-10-2008, 07:38 PM

have them sent to a neighbor or someone that you can trust
