Could be, but for the general rule.. they are bogus. But hey, email the seller and find out the story and believe it from there or not... me, I'll pass. Rather go for used in good condition and feel trusting towards the seller.

That Little Mermaid DVD is Real so it is OK to Bid on it But I Would Wait Until the Platinum Release

The DVD is Sealed it is the Actual Picture not a Stock Photo It Looks Like a R1 Release and it has the Sticker for the Free Movie on There so I Think it is Real

It is Sealed Not Trying to Start a Debate or Anything But I Go by Real Pictures Not Stock Photos But I Personally Would Wait Until the Platinum Edition Release For the Better Extras But For Example if I Was Offered the Limited Isuue Little Mermaid for $5.00 at a Garage Sale I Would Buy it if it Was the Real Thing Which Chances Are it Would be Real That's All I Am Going to Say:)

As stated above by Lightyear, This seller has sold 16 copies of this dvd in the last 30 days, So he may use the same pic on all 16

Maybe but In My Opinion it is Real As I Stated Before I Go By Real Pictures and Not Stock Photos but This Person Sold 16 Copies in the Past 30 Days Maybe the Seller is a Rare Collector and Found Them in Their Journies Hmm That Maybe Why the Seller is Selling 16 Copies of Little Mermaid, Pinocchio, 101 Dalmatians, Peter Pan, Jungle Book and Lady and the Tramp

I Say That it Could Be True and I Know From the Other Bootleg Threads(Including This One)What to Identify and I Looked Through and Everything Seemed Authentic to Me 16 Copies or Not

Anyways, yeah, that's DEFINITELY a bootleg.
Thanks all for confirming this for me. I have sent an email to the seller asking for a refund and now waiting for a response.

I did find something interesting when I checked the packing slip. The packing slip indicates that the DVD came from a seller on half.com by ebay. It's a different seller than I ordered from on Amazon. It appears to me that the seller that I placed the order with via Amazon Marketplace then proceeded to buy the DVD from someone else on ebay. He paid $19.99 while I paid $77.49. :evil:

Sounds like a major scam to me.
