1. Depends on what it is
If it's pictures of some schmo's trip to Graceland...well they might just find their way in the trash

Posting them on the Internets to make a couple of $$$.

Especially, if they were sparkly pictures. (I can think of one buyer off hand.)

5. depends
I once watched a video ad my ex brought home produced by a noted local criminal attorney he worked for, getting ready to release to local channels advertising his services.

About a third of the way through for about a 1/4 second there was a flash of a lush satin sheet bed with a HUGE FUCKING 14" DILDO propped upright on the end of it. I mean you couldn'ta done anything with it other than throw it over your shoulder and burp it. Clearly either the master tape or the copy we had was done on a previously used home video tape.

I didn't like the guy - I voted we go ahead and release it, but it wasn't MY boss, so I was overruled.

:shrug:

9. yes he did
his sister also worked for the guy and her husband had noticed it in her copy. I wish I could have been a fly on the wall when they told him though. . . .

It was literally a flicker while you were watching, but the eye is faster than the dildo.

7. I'm guessing nobody here is aware of "The Law of Used Video Equipment."
It's one of the lesser known Murphy's Laws...

Which states quite clearly: "When Selling A Used VCR or Other Video Equipment You
Will Accidentally Leave The Most Damaging Video You Own In It."

Happens every time.

8. I would probably show them to my friends...
...after I'd copied them so that I can use the memory card. I might ask for a replacement, too, depending on whether or not they're supposed to disclose that it was returned.

11. I'd take it back and talk to the manager.



If the store was selling something "used" at the "new" price, that is deceptive advertising.


By the same token, if they were selling the same item marked as "used", caveat emptor.
