In Gohastings terminology "Previously Viewed" means it's a former rental. You might get lucky and get one that's not but I doubt it.

I picked up Sherlock Holmes. Lets see what comes. I can always return it but its such a pain in the butt.

I can live with it if its in decent shape with a BR case and original Artwork

if it is a rental copy call them and they might send you the double disc version, its what is going to happen to me and percy jackson

Re: 25% off Previewed Blu-rays & DVDs @ gohastings.com
 

Bit on Paul Blart, Duplicity and Couples Retreat. Normally would not own these titles but for $11 for all 3 it was worth it. The bitch was the $6 shipping on an $11 order, but even $17 shipped for 3 discs is less than $6 each. So like others before me I just hope they have real Blu-ray cases and are not toasted rentals

Re: 25% off Previewed Blu-rays & DVDs @ gohastings.com
 

As someone who has ordered Previously Viewed from Hastings before, I am reasonably confident some or all will be rentals in rental cases. But you never know. I've received crappy rentals, perfect used, awful used, and I've also received a brand new box set when I ordered used. At least they do have good customer service.

received my "The Hangover" rental copy today.

Re: 25% off Previewed Blu-rays & DVDs @ gohastings.com
 

As long as they play OK

Re: 25% off Previewed Blu-rays & DVDs @ gohastings.com
 

My 2nd order went as follows:

Nick and Nora's Infinite Playlist $2.67
The Rocker $4.33
Ghost Town $4.04
Public Enemies $4.59
What Happens in Vegas $4.66

Prices after discount, before shipping and tax.

Re: 25% off Previewed Blu-rays & DVDs @ gohastings.com
 

I'm okay with it being a previous rental. I just don't want a bare bones 'rental copy'. I won't be too happy if it isn't in a blu ray case though. They'll probably get a call about that if it be the case.

Re: 25% off Previewed Blu-rays & DVDs @ gohastings.com
 

Went in for Bad Lieutenant, Public Enemies and The Hurt Locker, all Blu-rays for $24.XX. Not bad.

Re: 25% off Previewed Blu-rays & DVDs @ gohastings.com
 

The code isn't working for me.

Re: 25% off Previewed Blu-rays & DVDs @ gohastings.com
 

Make sure you're choosing "Previously Viewed" only.

Re: 25% off Previewed Blu-rays & DVDs @ gohastings.com
 

Picked up (prices include shipping):

Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs $9.44, received BD and DVD set in BD case
District 9 $8.08
Brothers $10.26
Where The Wild Things Are $10.26, received bare-bones rental copy in BD case

Considering there wasn't really much on WtWTA anyway, I guess I'm not too upset. Would be nice if it didn't say "RENTAL" across the bottom of the cover, though.

Re: 25% off Previewed Blu-rays & DVDs @ gohastings.com
 

I bought Avatar PV for $11.87 on Monday. Received it today. It was only the single disc "rental exclusive" version.

I called gohastings, and they're going to send me the full Blu-Ray+DVD 2 disc set (new, not previously viewed) and are asking me to mail back the rental exclusive version I got today (using their prepaid shipping label). They'll send the new discs to me ASAP, before receiving my return.

Great customer service.

Re: 25% off Previewed Blu-rays & DVDs @ gohastings.com
 

I'm surprised they haven't added a disclaimer: "Previously Viewed movies are former rentals and may not ship in original cases or with bonus discs and content."

Re: 25% off Previewed Blu-rays & DVDs @ gohastings.com
 

Woah, that's pretty nice. Might have to try this.

Re: 25% off Previewed Blu-rays & DVDs @ gohastings.com
 

OK, I wasn't going to bite on this sale but I did. We'll see how it goes. What I'm really waiting for is a REAL used BD sale.

22 Blus and 5 CDs for $167 shipped. Not bad.

Re: 25% off Previewed Blu-rays & DVDs @ gohastings.com
 

I picked up some of the HD DVD rentals from BB when the format went under. For the price I paid I really don't care about them being rentals. One was pretty scratched up but I eventually cleaned it up to where it would play glitch free. I don't watch extras so all I care about is the case and the ability to play without freezing.

Re: 25% off Previewed Blu-rays & DVDs @ gohastings.com
 

Got Where the Wild Things Are in the mail yesterday with a big 'RENTAL COPY' right on the front cover. Guess I'm going to have to call and try to get a replacement.

Re: 25% off Previewed Blu-rays & DVDs @ gohastings.com
 

I wonder how long they will keep replacing "previously viewed" with a "used" disc?

Re: 25% off Previewed Blu-rays & DVDs @ gohastings.com
 

i called yesterdaay about 5 lus being rentals but they wouldnt send me the 2 disc versions:( so they are sending me a label to send them back for a full refund.

Re: 25% off Previewed Blu-rays & DVDs @ gohastings.com
 

This might be too much to ask but maybe a list can be compiled of which say Rental Exclusive. I know my copy of The Wrestler had it in the front.
