    Default Anybody owns the Borat DVD

    What does the DVD look like? Is it normal that it looks like a copied DVD?

    yeah shits badass... it looks like a burned CD

    its labeled bo(backwards R)at but if you look closely along the edge of the CD it says like copyright htis and that... otherwise it looks soooooooooo much like a burnt CD labelled with a sharpie haha ingenious if you ask me.

    shit...i bought the dvd brand new and when me and my girl got back home to watch it....i thought someone bootlegged it and sold it off like that. I was mad for a second...thing is once you have the DVD in and the Menu screen is on, it makes you want to believe even more that its a bootleg. Funny shit though

    They only made boot leg versions. The CEO is the only one with the real one but he ran off with it screeming something along the lines of " You will never get! You will never get! LA LA LA LA LAA! You will never get!

    First email

    You sent me a bootleg copied version of the dvd. If I do not receive the original version or a full refund including shipping charges by the end of this week(may 14), I will report you to ebay and paypal for selling an item not as described just after I call the FBI to report you on selling bootleg versions of copyright material.
    Second email
    Please disregard my previous email. I didnt take a good look at the dvd and thought it was a bootleg copy. I feel like a dumbass.

    Can you say OWNED

    Yeah I heard about it looking like a burnt cd, but otherwise that would have confused me for a while.

    Karma is a fucking bitch !

    After watching it, I sold the DVD back on ebay and got this message from the buyer...


    You sold me a copy of the Borat DVD and I want ALL my money back! I will give you three days to return my entire payment or I will be forced to report you to both ebay and the police. Selling bootleg DVD's is a criminal offense.
    Return the entire payment to paypal.
    Thank you
    Vicki Bowers



    Ture story I am not making this up !

    That is too funny.

    I replied

    The DVD is made to look like a bootleg version. I had the same reaction when I bought it. Look at it real close you will see that it a real one. It looks like it's written in sharpie by it's the way it is made. This is a real version, ask around if you have a friend that has the Borat DVD also and they will tell you that it is supposed to look like that.
    Thank you for your reply. I will do more research and verify what you say. I do prefer to recycle at every chance, which was why I loved buying something someone else had viewed. I will get back with you in a day or so, so I will put my request on hold for the time being!
    Vicki
    I am apologizing out my ears! Thank you for your kind reply. I have only bought a few DVD's from ebay and had a very bad experience with one and failed to receive another. I have had good experiences with DVDs, and this will probably outweigh my two bad ones! So from now on I will have a bit more faith!

    Thank you for recycling and be assured that I will be passing this on to one of my friends as well!

    All the best on ebay

    Wow she sounded pissed.

    I wonder how many times that has happened or people have gone back to the store and asked about it.

    I don't know about through stores, but it definitely sounds like it'd happen a lot over sites like eBay.
