Default Flea Market Heaven !!!

I don't know if it's the right forum to talk about this but I just wanna share this awesome story. Today I went to a small town near mine and there is a Flea Market that sells about every crap you can imagine. I was going there just to spend some time with an old friend and have a good laugh and get something to eat after. About 5 min in there I see a stand where they sell Blu-Ray movies. I was like ''oh cool, maybe they have some used movie for sale for cheap''... THEY HAD ABOUT 100 TITLES ALL FOR 15$ NO TAXES !!! WTF ?!?! all the new releases that are usually 27-30$ here in Canada before taxes were ALL 15 !!! NEW!! not used or fakes all new still factory wrapped (all the one that usually come with special covers had them like Hellboy II for example)... and if you buy 4, the fifth is 10 freakin dollars!!! I was going nuts ...the day before I bought for example Donnie Darko for 25 before taxes and they were selling it 15 clean! The funny thing at first I didn't have any money on me so I went to a bank near by to get some cash and when I got back I was putting some Blu-Ray aside I was sure I wanted and an old man came by and said '' Take all the Blu-Ray out there all sold'' !!! I was like NO!!!! the lady told the guy to calm the f*ck down lol yhea just like that (all of them were hobos lol) and let me finish my choices.. Shes told me this happens everytime, they sell it to a store or something I guess.. (she told me Montreal...) anyway just wanted to share this amazing story I still can't believe it lol, I hope the next time I go there it will be the same, if so I won't go to places like Wal-Mart,Best Buy anymore lol...

anyone got similar stories ?!?!

Oh there probably real, just stolen. It's a big thing to steal cuz there not cheap, easy to take, and sell fast. Just like when DVD's came out. People just know how to do it.

Bingo. If they're real, they are stolen.

yhea that's what I thought, since some of them have some price sticker on it lol like The Dark Knight had a big 15$ sticker on it but still had a 29,99$ orange sticker on the top corner... This Flee Market is located a behind a Wal-Mart lol... (but the price stickers are not the ones Wal-Mart usually uses...)

They are typically stolen merchandise that have been acquired before they get to retail distribution. It happened with cd's and dvd's before.
