You don’t see businesses selling used music CDs or used DVDs.

Um, excuse me? In the UK, CEX is a national chain selling used dvds, cds, games, blu-rays, hell even laptops, phones and ipods, all used: www.cex.co.uk.

So yes, Reggie, you do see businesses doing exactly that, at least in this country.

Reggie only speaks about the American market, in fairness to him.

 

Ah!

There just seems something so naive about his comments here. I mean, in the UK used games and dvds is such a normal thing, especially games, which are sold used at GAME, Gamestation, Hmv, Cex and others. Maybe America isn't typically the same?
