About a year ago, I bought a new Blu-ray player at Best Buy and a bunch of Blu-ray movies to accompany it. In the process of moving houses, I packed the Blu-ray player into a different box from that batch of movies. Long story short: I've had the player set up and working fantastically for months now. And my collection of Blu-rays has grown significantly. All is well.
Except I recently rediscovered that first batch of Blu-rays from Best Buy. As it turns out, the moron at the checkout counter forgot to remove the plastic antitheft cases from the boxes. We're talking about maybe 15 movies here, so I really don't want to have to replace these ******* things. I am aware that I'm a marsupial for not having noticed this earlier, and I accept full responsibility for my marsupialdom.
That said, what should I do here?
a) Attempt to remove the devices myself. (If so, how?)
b) Take the discs back to Best Buy, sans receipt, and ask if they can do it.
c) Some alternative to the a and b.
If you're going to give advice about "a," I'd really prefer if you have the wisdom of experience in this matter. I don't want to accidentally damage the boxes or discs.
Cordially,
AB
