A separate slot to deposit DVD rentals into that would indicate to the store that there was some problems with the DVD either due to smudges or scratches.-- blahginger, Feb 18 2003 True Porn Clerk Stories http://www.improvisation.ws/mb/tpcs.htmlI am guessing the author would fishbone this idea...

This is a really good idea! How'd it slip under my radar?-- phoenix, Apr 10 2003 Worldgineer - i keep hearing about "Sperms of Endearment" and "Shaving Ryan's Privates", are these real?-- greennightmonkey, Apr 10 2003 I'm on the lookout for My Big Fat Greek Orgy.-- Maestro, May 11 2003 Reminds me of www.actsofgord.com, though that's a video-game store.-- supercat, May 11 2003 If you take the DVD into the store, and complain about the dirt (or scratches), you should get a free rental.
My local Bloccy B's does this...-- MikeOliver, May 12 2003 Great idea !
I usually check the DVD as I'm renting just to verify it looks playable. If not, I ask for another. Nothing worse than getting 3/4 through a movie (after the vid store is closed) and not being able to see the ending.
BRAVO !-- mahatma, May 12 2003 //Nothing worse than getting 3/4 through a movie// What about getting 7/8 through a movie and being able to see the ending?-- silverstormer, May 12 2003 sousa, Thanks for finding that link so I could waste 4 hours of work today.-- goober, May 12 2003 I'm sure if you stuck a note inside the DVD case, it would catch their attention.
Netflix sleeves have a "DVD is unplayable" checkbox on them.-- waugsqueke, May 12 2003 random, halfbakery
