Has a celebrity ever bought your used dvd?
I though there was a thread on here, maybe it was another board, but just like the title says, has this ever happend to any of you?
I just sold my criterion Breathless on amazon to Adam Duritz, could this be the Counting Crows lead singer? hmmmmmm. It is going to New York, and the profile on wikipedia says he currently resides in NY.
I just though this was pretty neat and wanted to see if anyone else has had this happen to them.

Sorry to rain on your parades, but do you realize how many people live in New York? Hell, I went to a highschool in Missouri with only 400 students, and there was another person that shared my first and last name.

It was just weird because it has this as the contact:
Buyer name: adam durtiz c/o Gudvi, Sussman...
So it had me thinking that sussman was some sort of assistant.
edit: as I was typing this i searched gudvi, sussman... and they provide business management services to the entertainment industry.

A couple of years ago on Amazon, I sold a DVD to someone named "Famke Janssen" in New York. However, I don't know if it was the actual actress or just someone with the same name.

A couple of years ago I sold a used copy of a horror DVD to a Scott Speigel in California, and the check was from some sort of actor's credit union, so I assumed it was him.

I'm a rare book dealer, so I have sold things to celebrities.. and I really did just sell an item to Scorsese.. but it was a consignment item with another dealer. I didn't get to deal with him directly.

I bough something the other day as Pres. Bush with the White House listed as my residence. I only wish I had bought something as moronic as his presidency.

Now obviously that would not fit on the actual title bar so I kinda had to shorten it and I guess I was just in a nice mood.
