Subject: [ALCTS-acqnet] DVD vendor sameness

 

I check several online sites when purchasing DVDs because prices can vary
widely. Recently, I noticed that three vendors seem to be very much the
same. If one has an item, they all do and the item number is exactly the
same. If one of them does not list an item, none of them do. If one shows a
title as not available, they all show it as not available. The prices may
differ a few cents. The copyright on all three sites is the same. The
address for returning an item is exactly the same. For the two listing a
phone number that is not toll-free, only the last digit is different.

 

I will be happy to share the names if you email me. I am interested in
whether there are others in this group.
