Are you an honourable person or a scamp ?

I know what I am, mate ;-)

If it`s not recorded delivery, there should be no way they can trace where the DVD is. It can just be lost in the mail, it happens all the time. But if you get caught, it`s fraud.

I think you`ll find they do actually know what is going on. They are having a few problems with their online tracking but their offline records seem intact, plus seeing as you have to sign for the package when it arrives your signature is down against receiving that.

If you want to risk being taken to court for theft then fine do it. But you won`t win any friends on here, as we are generally keen bargain hunters ourselves and don`t appreciate any effort that might lead to higher prices or more bargains (no matter how small an increase that is- don`t forget one dvd stlen may alter the price a miniscule amount, but shopes lose billions through theft and fraud each yr, without that prices would be much cheaper all the time- think about it).
