You bought something on Ebay and someone sent you an informational pamphlet?

I am selling all my DVDs on Ebay right now because I have been meaning to for a while. I signed up for the promotional info at the blu-ray website (where you get retail preview discs, fliers and the like) and I got a whole bunch of Blu-Ray pamphlets that I am thinking of sending along with peoples packages.

What do you all think? Introduce them to Blu!

Just slip it into the DVD case like it came with that movie. They'll get a good chuckle.

Wow you are committed. What sort of price do you expect to get for each standard def DVD?

I might do start doing the same before these standard DVD disks are worthless.

spurtspanker - ebay id.

I am usually really good with keeping customers happy. However, if I fail and they want to leave negative feedback, so be it. My life will go on

BTW - Love the avatar! Those movies I dunno. They are funny and stupid funny at the same time.

Lol, I just want to get rid of the things and what better way than to inform people - use them for what they were meant to be used for - lol.

Not looking good on some. I have 95 titles up - with about 20 or so with watchers/bids. Most all are 99cents and half of the collection is my own which is PRISTINE. Watched once, put on the shelf. So its like you went to the store and bought it but I saved you the trouble of going to get it and unwrapping the damned things

supersix4 · 07-31-2007, 03:42 AM

I look at is as like the longer I keep them - the less money I will get for them. To the point where you couldn't give them away.

I don't think anyone would mind as long as it is not religious or political, which is what I was thinking you were going to do at first. Technological is different, since in a way it does have to do with what you are selling. A lot of people on Ebay send out adverts for other things they are selling or include business cards, so go for it.

I agree exactly. They might become BD converts and want to buy BDs from you. Thanks for the commitment.

Iceman_II · 07-31-2007, 02:17 PM

Or, they could get the pamphlit, and think,

"this blu-ray thing is great...

its so great in fact that this guy doesn't even want his DVDs...

what a minute, he's unloading this old technology on ME?"

Bottom line is you can never second guess what people will think, as long as you are comfortable with it, go for it.

Lol, that is the first thing that came to mind. However I hate to say this, most people are not that bright.
