The House on Sorority Row (1983) from Scorpion Releasing

[RebelPhoenix]

for anyone who purchased this....I ordered a few copies from amazon and they all came without any factory seal plastic on it. Almost like it was a used copy??? Ive ordered every scorpion release from amazon and that never happened. Anyone else experience this?

My copy was in plastic wrap. It was from blowitoutahere.com if that helps...

Mine came from Amazon and it was shrink wrapped.

Anyhow this was a blind buy for me. About to watch it now

Same here. It had plastic wrap and the sticker sealing the top of the case, with the film title, etc.

I ordered it from amazon and it was sealed and had the sticker seal on top also.

I enjoyed it. I mean, it was typical 80s cheesy slasher. It definitely didn't do anything to reinvent the horror genre, but it was a fun watch.

Well, Diabolik didn't get more copies in after all so I'm stuck with waiting until they replenish. I've already paid for a copy, so it's a waiting game from here on in.

This just happened to me too. No shrink wrap plus the obligatory Amazon amaray case pen-stab (?) mark. Just gonna return and re-order from a third-party seller since Amazon has sent you a few like that.

It should come shrink wrapped but was does it really matter? Aslong as it's not damaged, why would you return it? So you can take the shrink wrap of yourself? I don't get it.

There's nothing to "get" - someone ordered and paid for a new product and that's not what they received. I would absolutely send it back AND expect some sort of apology at the very least. I wouldn't want an open item unless I specifically ordered one.

what bullshit. i'm a movie collector myself so don't tell me there's nothing to get.
since the movie has just been released on blu-ray, they cannot be used. so they are NEW and just not shrinkwrapped. we're not talking about getting send used movies sold as new products.
people like you will get there amazon account banned eventually for sending stuff back that's perfectly alright. and then you even expect an apology. don't make me laugh captain ocd.

If you ordered candy online and received an opened one, would you keep it? Or a computer, headphones, a CD, whatever - you paid for new merchandise and that's what you should receive. There is only ONE reason to receive an opened Blu-ray: it's an autographed or numbered edition. Unless, of course, you purchased a used item. Get a grip

why do you keep saying items without a shrinkwrap cannot be new?

the movie has just been released, it has to be a new product that the ones on this forum have received. they probably forgot to shrinkwrap some of the cases send to amazon somehow, does that make it a used product?

or is a used product a product previously used by someone?

If it came from the factory without shrink wrap it's defective. If it's not defective then it's used. Either is unacceptable. Open copies of blus always go for less then sealed copies, even if the product is one day old.

It may or may not matter, but when it comes to returning stuff to Amazon, it always comes down to the same question for me: Would I have picked that particular copy up off of a shelf in a store and bought it if I had seen it first? In this case I would have put it back and gone to another store. It's kind of a personal thing for everyone, as everyone has their own standards for their own collection and for specific titles within their collection. Yes, it is silly that "new" copies can go for so much more than "used" copies when sometimes the only difference is a piece of shrink wrap, but for me it's a matter of assurance that the disc is legit. It's also a matter of principle to some degree, as Amazon is CONSTANTLY sending me busted and/or beat up merchandise.

Barnes and Noble currently has this for $19.20. Also picked up Jess Franco's Demons for $19.93 and Countess Dracula for $18.12. Not bad prices compared to Amazon.

Mine showed up and I'm looking forward to giving it a spin. Shame about it not having 5.1 audio though when an old dvd release has it.
