Yea they rurally screw up box sets

It is becoming quite clear to me that there is a security tape glue residue epidemic sweeping the world that has not yet come to California.

I wish you all the best of luck.

Plus oddly the spine corners have been breaking off of my cases.

Tower shipped me a blu-ray/dvd case opener that acts sort of like a can opener and I could see myself using that to jack movies. but i wont because of the thrill i get when i see packages at my front door.

Here's a subtle hint for those complaining about the tape residue:

OMG! GOO GONE is SO COOL! My Iron Man BLU was F'd up by the stupid stickers and this was so helpful...

I found some at my work and decided to get some in a cup to try, funny thing is everyone thought it was pee in the cup. I was like "Does pee smell like this?"

Glue residue largely depends on what part of the country you live in and how long that item has been kept in storage. I have noticed that many of Lionsgate's BDs have glue that has apparently melted in extreme heat, leaving a mess on the case. Obviously people that live in cold places like Minnesota have less of these problems typically.

Ick that explains why I had so many problems during last summers buying spree. I live in the south where we consider anything in the 90s to be a cool day!

Wow!
My Best Buy just has celophane/shrink wraped discs on a shelf.

[Deimos]

Is really people with a decent and expensive BD capable equipment stealing BD's?

We are doomed.

Wow, good thing the hard coat is non-stick, as well.

If I owned a store I would certainly have security cameras up. I would also put up a big sign.

Dear Patrons,

Our return policy begins with 4 words. "No receipt, No return."
Our ship lifting policy consists of ONE word. "Prosecute."

Thank you for shopping @ TRON3.
