Ever bought a dvd that had extra items in it that shouldn't be?

I bought the 2-disc SE Escape From New York in Walmarts $5.00 bin. When I opened it, there was 3 discs inside. Two of disc 1 (Feature Film) and One of disc 2 (Bonus Features). Both disc 1's worked just fine.

I had bought the 2-disc SE of Seabiscuit and it had 2 of the film cells in it.

My DVD of "Hey is Dee Dee Home?" (Dee Dee Ramone bio/doc) had two sets of the tattoos with it.

I once bought one of the James Bond Collection box sets off of eBay, and instead of the discs inside was a bloody stump of a hand.

I was not a happy customer, and you can bet I left some negative feedback. Oh well, at least the inserts were there.

Well, I once bought Ed Wood from a local Blockbuster only to get home and find out it was the original, rarer release with the "When Carol Met Larry" featurette. That was a bit of a surprise considering how people were looting stockrooms to get to that release when the recall was put out.

I was lucky enough to get one of those when it was first "released."

But anyway, I bought the special edition of Die Hard 2 and there were two disc 2s. Disc 1 was there and there were two disc 2s stacked on one another.

I ordered a used E.T. gift set. Someone switched disc 1 for disc 1 of Pearl Harbor. At least the theatrical cut, supplement disc, and music score CD were intact. While it did have the hardcover book, it was missing the film cell. It was $24, which I guess was worth it.

I bought Hart to Hart-The Complete First Season & it had 2 disc fives in it. I bet that someone was missing the fifth disc in one of their sets though.

I bought one of the Star Trek CE films, and it contained an extra Special Features disc. I think I still have it in the case, not knowing exactly what to do with it.

My Indiana Jones boxset had extra fingerprints and a footprint on the data side of one of the discs.

That happened to me too!

Only it was a laundry truck and instead of a bloody stump, it was a couple of dozen political refugees from China.

Not with DVDs but I did get an extra vol. 3 CD in a Billy Joel box set from BMG. It found a good home with a friend of mine who happened to already have vol. 1 & 2.

I bought the single disc version of Master And Commander, and it had the bonus disc in there too. That was a sweet suprise!

I ordered Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust from Animenation in 2001 and just recently discovered a second cover hiding beneath the first.

It was in one of those cd sized paper and plastic envelopes and it was slid under the insert!
