Wrong forum..... but in any case.... because you have to pay for shipping, how would you expect this to work exactly

I think it depends whether or not you are trying to legitimately start a business by doing it. Then you have to get down to paying all sorts of royalties/taxes.. Not worth it for the few dollars considering you'd be paying shipping, etc., and so would the renter I assume.

Didnt Pinoybuster try that?

Just rent from Netflix. It would be cheaper in the long run instead of paying postage to "rent" a movie from another trader. Not to mention the trust issue.

just curious
eventhough its legal and legally done its seems like a charity
since we have to pay postal i guess

so your gonna pay like $4-5 shipping round trip (to you and back to owner) and take the risk of the movie being damaged.... sounds like its better to rent at your local video store or wait for the movies u want
