shrink sealing is easy, alot of stores keep shrinkl-wrap machines within the stores, you can also get it done for fairly cheap at office supply stores.

I bought a video game many years back and after opening it I realized it was a crap game... so I took it to a local Blockbuster Video and asked my friend their to reshrink it, then I returned it to Wal-mart and got my money back. It wasn't damaged, or missused... I kept everything with it, so I didn't see any reason not to return it, but they have a "opened game" policy that they can't return it.

No, Adobe are adamant that it's a bogus copy. The software serial number on the box does not exist. The fact that the seller gave a no-questions-asked refund says a lot too. He obviously doesn't want any fuss made because he knows at the end of the day he doesn't have a leg to stand on.

Hrm, interesting story.

I'm curious to know who the seller is as to avoid him.

The following has arrived:

COBRA Diver (x2) which increases my Cobra diving team to a glorious 3!
Matt Trakker (sp?)
GI Joe Greatest Battles DVD.

---

My thoughts:

The Cobra Diver is a pretty cool figure. The M. Trakker looks good too. But I am really disappointed with the Greatest Battles DVD. I had thought it was maybe various episodes from the classic Sunbow cartoons, since the other DVD's were Sunbow stories: MASS Device, Weather Dominator, etc. Instead this DVD has 4 episodes from somewhere, all computer CGI, of about 10 minutes each except the last one. The figures were another disappointment as they all seem to be the most shoddy of construction and paint. Although Snake Eyes's color scheme of a mud brown/mud black looks good. But with everyone, equipment doesn't seem to fit, and the figures bodies have holes where it's obvious they were designed for other equipment. And no filecards in this set.

Other than that, the divers are pretty good :-)

Thumbs up The Terror Drome.

After the U.S.S. Flagg, the 1983 Headquarters, the Defiant, I bought the Terror Drome: poker!
