Redbox says that DVD's are only $1 and you can return it at anytime.
well i rented one, took a week before i watched it, returned it and got hit with a $9 fee.

then i call REDBOX customer service and they explain that its $1 a night!!!!!
just a heads up to those who dont know

4/21/2009 10:50:47 AM

because i think it says $1 per night really big on the box

4/21/2009 10:51:25 AM

you're kidding right?

4/21/2009 10:51:33 AM

yeah, redbox has always been $9/night.

fail

4/21/2009 10:53:41 AM

i did not see the "per night"

it was an impulse purchase, they put the $1 really big, and im sure the "per night" is in the chinese or something

4/21/2009 10:55:09 AM

wow, RENT A MOVIE AND KEEP IT AS LONG AS YOU WANT





FOR $1!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

4/21/2009 10:55:26 AM

hahahaha

thread of the year right here

4/21/2009 10:56:11 AM

seriously.

i go to redbox and buy all my movies for $1 there

4/21/2009 10:56:37 AM

ahahahahaha there is no way you're this dumb

4/21/2009 10:57:01 AM

^^^^why not, that really the trend with Netflix and blockbuster online
i think that falls right into line with those
plus i got used to no late fees from BKBUS

You guys are fucking assholes. It was an honest mistake for fucks sake. I can see someone being a little bit in a hurry and not notice it says per day or whatever.

4/21/2009 11:00:32 AM

4/21/2009 11:02:33 AM

sounds like a case closed. sure am glad this mystery was solved.

4/21/2009 11:03:22 AM

i dont think there is anyone who is not already aware of this in the UNIVERSE

4/21/2009 11:03:45 AM

4/21/2009 11:04:37 AM

this thread isn't real, btw guys. down syndrome's don't have computers

4/21/2009 11:04:51 AM

moron, it's $1 per 24 hour unit that you have it....

4/21/2009 11:13:38 AM

you mean you can't just keep it?

4/21/2009 11:14:16 AM

i just use them as coasters after i watch the movie

4/21/2009 11:14:43 AM

Well now you know...
Half the battle...
Yadda yadda yadda.

4/21/2009 11:15:00 AM

the movies self-destruct after 30 days.

4/21/2009 11:15:28 AM

most entertaining thread of the day

and thats even after the photofunia thread

4/21/2009 11:15:56 AM

i forgot about this part of the internet

all the people who come here to call people morons because they're too bitch to ever do anything remotely close in real life

4/21/2009 11:16:18 AM

4/21/2009 11:21:15 AM

i certainly would laugh about this to guy's face if he told this story... unless he was genuinely upset about it- but I would probably still laugh

4/21/2009 11:21:53 AM

so this is a warning that a company performs as advertised?

Yeah dude we're all fucking shitting ourselves over the daunting task of RENTING A REDBOX DVD

oh, yeah.. but big difference between laughing and calling someone stupid. and you know most people here wouldn't even smirk if the other person was around.

4/21/2009 11:24:21 AM

i'm surprised there isnt a BLOCKBUSTER/NETFLIX warning!! parody yet

4/21/2009 11:25:04 AM

I'd probably give a jizz-in-my-pants face and reconsider ever talking to the person again, HONESTLY how fucking stupid do you have to be to screw up a redbox rental

4/21/2009 11:25:38 AM

this thread is full of lafta

4/21/2009 11:26:21 AM

i dont ever stick my credit card in random slots anyways!!1

4/21/2009 11:26:29 AM

^that's not what I heard from that stripper

4/21/2009 11:27:46 AM

if the day after an acquaintance told me that he wanted to buy a 30 ft aquarium for $300 (message_topic.aspx?topic=564354) , he told me he thought he could buy dvds and keep them forever for $1, I most certainly would call him an idiot.

Dude is like a fountain of dumb on this board.

4/21/2009 11:27:52 AM

is blockbuster really as bad as the news has been making it out to be? they are saying they might be filing for bankruptcy soon.... which doesn't make sense to me because it is still as crowded as it always was whenever I go in there, and I don't know anyone who has given up their blkbster online membership

4/21/2009 11:28:00 AM

uh oh...tuff just came to town

OMG I am in a big hurry so I'll stick my Credit Card in a machine and not know what I am buying!!!

And it says "$1.00 per night" like 4 times when you are trying to check out.

this thread made my day!

4/21/2009 11:37:56 AM

It's not even a matter of making the mistake.. hell, I have done some dumb shit in my day, it's that he came on here to warn us of redbox scamming their customers or some shit.

Normal people do dumb shit, they realize they were a dumbass and then learn from it.
