Used CDs and DVDs Market

[Tal]

Uhm, Little Mermaid NEW (sealed), Ltd Ed, Ebay, buy-it-now option $29.95 - 7 1/2 hours left on a one day auction (are links to such sites allowed, here?). Yes, some idiot just bid the SAME edition up to $46.00 in another 1-day auction that just closed (apparently this is a matter of "bid-rage" since both are on the same page)! However, neither of these approach the $200.00 you quote above. Amazon is a little pricier, w/new LMs going for a low of $31.93 and a high of $75.99 (good, used going for $21.99). Still, nowhere near $200.00?!
I can legally sell you any industry-produced copy of media (I don't claim to know the "legalese", but there is a transference of "rights" that go w'the purchase of the media). It is pirated copies that cannot be distributed/sold/produced. The legality of the second-hand market is quite sound.

Well its been a year or so since I was looking for this DVD for my daughter so my prices are a bit off. So pick another DVD thats very hard to find and isn't offered in the store and you'll notice the price is significantly higher. My point was that the original distributioner of the media have no claim on the extra money someone can make off the sale of an item for a much higher purchase price than the original.

I do have to apologize to you though as I misread your "unquestionable" as questionable. Sorry for the confusion.
