Purchasing Used Blu-Rays . . . your experiences

Video Asylum

TVs, VCRs, DVD players, Home Theater systems and more.

Many Amazon.com resellers are offering used blu-rays for sales. The savings is sometimes tempting.

I was wondering if anybody has purchased one or more and would give feedback--pleased or disappointed, etc.

My purchase of used CDs through the same or similar sources is mixed. Yeah, they all usually play (except a Metallica single would barely play only after I cleaned it w/ a glass cleaner!), but sometimes they simple look like hell. I think you know what I mean . . . not only filthy (which can be cleaned), but scuffed up as well.

It's got to the point I would rather buy new CDs. You can't really return a CD that plays perfectly well and claim "hey, it's scuffed up. It ain't purty enuff."

I guess we audiophile/videophile types treat our audio & video software w/ TLC, whereas others view and accordingly handle them differently.
