$25 to rent the movie, one watch within max 24 hours after you start watching it… Or $5 more to own it. Scammers.

    On that last post where someone got a refund they gave a full refund as a gift card and an additional 5 euro gift card.

    (Not saying it’s an okay think to do, just in case you’re referencing it.)

        It’s a refund in the sense that you can exchange it for an item of equal value. A real refund would be more appropriate, I agree.

            The store has a profit margin, so the store values the item significantly less than the sticker price.

            I totally get that, but it is what you paid for it. As long as it is greater than your original payment adjusted for inflation it’s fair enough. It sucks, I think there should be some sort of penalty for not getting proper licensing to let people use it forever (until your company shuts down).

        Usually if you complain you can get a real refund. The other post was Amazon and they usually bend over backwards to make customers happy. Still pretty shitty that you have to jump through some hoops, though.
