j/k.

It does make you wonder though. Did they steal their player also at some point? It doesn't make a lot of sense to shell out all the money for a player if you can't afford discs.

They prolly intended to exploit the good nature of a Gamestop or other company in the area that buys used Discs.

Yeah but they would have got a whole $1 more because they were new discs! If you can't get store credit for MSRP, it's not worth it.

A friend will bail you out.
A TRUE friend will be sitting next to you saying "Damn, that was FUN!"

[Goodguy818]

Another sign blu-ray will win, even thieves prefer blu-ray!

Blus, like DVDs before them at this stage are shoplifting targets because they're small, easy to conceal and have a high SRP

It's as simple as that. They'll get double for them from a fence

Must be why a lot of Wal-Marts are keeping them in locked endcaps now.

It would have been better for them if they had stolen HD DUD movies:

They could've pleaded insanity and perhaps have gotten away with it

NOBODY will buy that defense since they stole Blu-Ray movies

P.S. It's ok... here is how they are going to get away with it: Those Blu-Ray movies will "mysteriously" dissapear and they will have to drop the charges due to lack of evidence...
The boys in blu sure like their Blu-Ray movies

[smiley]

For the second time now thieves have been smart enough to pick blu.

[SpikesBluBlooded]

-that's for not buying them and counting towards this week's numbers...

[Cory108]

Idiots. Probably people who don't even own a player.


GO G-MEN!!!

"It was revealed that the two had previously stolen a batch of HD-DVD's in error. Upon realising their error they returned to the store, replaced the HD-DVD's on the shelf, and stole the Blu-ray discs instead."

"The store manager commented 'We saw them take the HD-DVD's but didn't bother challenging them because, to be honest, they were doing us a favour; however we will fully prosecute anybody attempting to steal goods we can actually sell.'"

"It is a beleived the store will be pushing for the full extent of the law to be applied and they are currently investigating to see whether any legal action can take place for them returning the HD-DVD's"
