a2784 Posted February 12, 2010 Report Share Posted February 12, 2010 You will probably get arrested. However if you were a Nigerian passport holder with a bomb in your pants you are free to go (unless you try to light the bomb then even the morons can realize they should arrest you).

Batmaniac Posted February 12, 2010 Report Share Posted February 12, 2010 I wouldn't risk it in today's airport climate. Not to mention the MPAA and RIAA being so cozy with the government. You never know who they will make an "example" of next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You never know who they will make an "example" of next. It is easier to download movies after you get back to the states and they are free.

tonado Posted February 13, 2010 Report Share Posted February 13, 2010 As long your DVDs are not same one, then you should be alright. Worst case they just take away from you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randy W Posted February 13, 2010 Report Share Posted February 13, 2010 Now if you try to watch them on the plane, the other passengers will gang-tackle you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobertH Posted February 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2010 Hmmmm I think I will just EMS them to myself back in mesa. I have 15-20 i bought and i am a chicken to bring them back. If I do bring them and they find them will they most likely just take em away? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I do bring them and they find them will they most likely just take em away?I doubt they will make it. They will have to go through customs then. When we wanted to send some watches from here to USA the UPS manager told us we would have to include documentation to prove they were not knock offs or they would be confiscated by customs. Maybe fake DVDs would be different. You can try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I do bring them and they find them will they most likely just take em away? If they're too bulky, ou can take them out of the packing and pack them in your luggage. The liner notes come out real easily. You can buy new cases pretty cheap. Then again, they will probably notice the guilty look on your face.

amberjack1234 Posted February 18, 2010 Report Share Posted February 18, 2010 (edited) Robert two years ago I brought back about 50 of them and they were obviously pirates. I never had a hint of a problem. I came out of Beijing and landed in Chicago. As long as you don't have like a thousand of them or several thousand which would indicate that you are going to resell them for a profit. Or if you have say 100-300 of the same title which would indicate that you were going to sell them. Just for your own use I don't think you will have any problem. A strange thing did occur on that trip. My wife was given a coca cola on the plane and she did not drink it. She put it in her purse and in Chicago they caught it and took it from her with a caution. Strange huh? Larry Edited February 18, 2010 by amberjack1234 (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShaQuaNew Posted February 18, 2010 Report Share Posted February 18, 2010 I was told they pin each DVD you bring to your body, and then take you to the target range to see if they can hit the hole in the middle without breaking the DVD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
