    I am not a scammer. The guy received all his money back. He originally said that he just didn't like it. He added these other comments later. The movie was brand new and kept in a smokefree environment. I always refund every buyer with a problem. I try to be honest and can't stand someone who operates below ground.

    It was NOT kept in a smoke free environment. IT REEKED VERY STRONGLY Of Cigarettes. Like a DIRTY ASHTRAY.
