Odd product description at Half.com

I was about to place my first-ever purchase with Half.com, for a DVD, when I noticed the word "Laserdisc" in the description. This is really weird, since I was under the impression that LDs were in a different section. Apparently not?
The title was listed as "Over-Half", but was still a good deal - for the DVD. It had "(DVD)" after the title of the movie at the top, so I'm confused. Is there anyway to know for sure if this is a DVD or a LD?

Remember, Half.com is just the middleman. These are individuals selling their stuff. They list it wherever they choose, and then describe it however they like. This guy is selling a laserdisc. It doesn't matter that he chose to put it in the DVD section -- the description clearly says that it's a laserdisc.
You don't want to deal with the hassle of trying to get a refund on a half.com purchase. That takes a lot of work and several months, to boot. Don't get this unless you want the laserdisc.
