Letting others borrow your Blu-Rays.... - Page 2 - Blu-ray Forum

hoogoosedmoose41 · 01-20-2009, 10:13 PM

heck I dont even lend my dvds out let alone blu ray discs to anyone even my family.

Anything Ive loaned out I never ever get back so I just dont loan them out anymore. my friends dont scratch them and treat them badly they just never return them.

My friends do, they don't even own a Blu Ray Player. Yet, when you explain it to them, they look at you clueless...

I used to let my brothers watch my blu-rays until they started tearing up all of my brand new blu-rays and leaving me with a bunch of opened discs that I have yet to watch. Now I lock my door.

that's the reason i stopped loaning dvds out to many of my friends. they were taken care of, but it took much more energy than necessary to track them down and get them back.

I used to never return stuff either thats why I never loan my stuff out. Let's be honest guys a lot of us have never returned things that were loaned to us as well!

Can you loan me some gas? I promise I will return it to you...

dadkins · 01-20-2009, 11:41 PM

As I posted in the other thread, my friends know if it gets borrowed, it comes back in the same condition or they buy me a new one.
They have no problem with this.

I have good friends... do you?

There alright, I would not say good. But there's only one I trust enough to borrow a movie. I know she would replaced it if damaged, but she does not have Blu.

Well, that gas... I will be returning. I mean petrol, lol.

As for my close friends, I make SURE they know what Blu-ray is. But none of them have it.

My general classmates are clueless... one of them just thought it was harder to scratch and that was the only difference XD

PoLskA · 01-21-2009, 02:22 AM

Same, none of my friends even have an HDTV, let alone know what Blu-ray is

Guess I got lucky

I wouldn't lend them out anyway, bad experience from lending DVDs even to my brother, I'd get them back just destroyed. Never. Again.

Anthony P · 01-21-2009, 02:36 AM

many have borrowed my BDs.

alomar · 01-21-2009, 02:36 AM

Thankfully I am only 1 of 4 people I know that has a blu ray player. My parents have one, so they can borrow them because its the same house. My sister does also because I bought it for them, so they do because they are honest and will replace any discs they brake or anything of the like. And my best friend also can because he has more movies than me so I will just steal some from him until he pays up!

You need a place to stay. You need a couple of bucks. You need to use a cellphone cause your battery is dead. You need a bone marrow or an organ donor & I'm the same blood type as you.

Remember when you wouldn't let me your blu-ray, thanks for understanding, kbye *phone clicks*

He obviously didn't get the point and ended up getting really mad to the point he wanted to end the friendship because I was stingy! This is coming from a guy who does not own 1 blu-ray movie and rents his blu-rays from Blockbuster.com....

Here's what you need to do.

1} Approach him calmly.

2} Use Tazer and apply to juggular.

3} Repeat until he leaves you alone.
