Just a random question. I was there today looking around and noticed they had some Disney movies on sale. I noticed a couple that had walmart price stickers on it, and they had put their own price on there.

Just curious if this is abnormal for stores to buy stock elsewhere?

Probably just a mixup at the warehouse level. At Kmart, movies and music are handled by a seperate company, [inventory is handled by a rep - the rep orders and sends back movies] and it'll sometimes receive movies with Wal-Mart stickers on them.

Thanks for the info. At first I thought it was a tad fishy, but thanks for clearing things up.

Another possibility is that a clerk accepted them as exchanges. Pretty lazy and pathetic, but possible . . .

That reminds me. Many moons ago when I was working for Suncoast, I was sorting our usual Friday shipment and noticed something peculiar about some of the new VHS releases for the next week (this when DVD was just coming around). I pulled out a couple of the "Simon Birch" tapes and examined them a little closer . . . finally I caved in and opened one of them to find that it was a used rental tape from Family Video with their stickers still on it (which made it even stranger). I opened up a few more and found that about half of them were used rental tapes that were sent to us by the studio!

On the contrary. I don't know what the policy was when you were working, but it has been reported here many times, and I myself have asked and had this confirmed at suncoast that they will accept any unopened DVD for store credit as long as it is in their computer, even if it was purchased at another retailer. With a receipt from suncoast, you can get cash. But otherwise only store credit. Seems entirely fair to me as long as someone doesn't go crazy and pick up a 100 copies of one title from some closeout and then try to trade them in all at the same store.
