Viet Video

In the beginning, before Phim Bo^. went on a crazy DVD rampage, this was the one of the first places that sold Phim Bo^. in DVD. My cousin and I were so excited about it
Let me begin by telling you the price for it. $ 50 for 60 DVDs, which wasn’t too bad back then (now that i think about it, thats pretty insane)
anyways.
Twice…not once, twice it happened to us
They «charge» overdo’s by taking the rest of your «DVD» account away without any notice. They’re 2 weeks notice sign is on a 8 &½ by 11 paper, written in font 20 (possible bolded, who knows) taped at the bottom of their counter where only your children will notice.
Seriously, it’s Phim bo^. !!! Some of us may finish a series in a day, others like me like to watch it on my spare time. How are you suppose to finish a whole series in 2 weeks and remember to return your video without any reminder? When you come back, they say you’re account is up because they took your remainder DVDs as a charge.
Yes they gave me a call to «remind» me to return it about 3 weeks. which sure makes sense
IF
1. They told me about my charge
2. They actually had original copies and not burnt DVDS
3. they give you an actual due date when you need to return your dvds (and not put it on a small sign)
Needless to say, I complained fairly loudly when it happened to me AGAIN. I stormed out of that place and was so tempted to shut them down by calling some companies and telling them that they burn illegal dvds, but I didn’t want to put all Vietnamese series rental places out of business, so I thought better of it.
Oh yeah. if you think the place is awesome when you look through their binder of movies and you find a classic. Chances are– they don’t have it because its lost or people never return (probably because of their wonderful policy)
again, keep in mind their copies are burnt, not original. It doesn’t at all occur to them to make more than 2 – 3 copies and keep their originals
If there was a way to shut this place down without affecting present Vietnamese Movie places, I would be happy to do it
