I believe Family Video has agreements with the major dvd distributors to repackage previously viewed DVDs with new inserts. I assume they do this with Blu-Ray/DVD combos because they split them up for rentals. I have bought a few for my own collection.  

Recently I noticed the repackaged DVDs have upc bar codes on the back which match the correct title on swapadvd.

Is this okay to post normally in swap or do I need to use the bazaar? The front/back cover look almost identical to a normal dvd. 

Thanks for your thoughts.

Mike

I would think they need to go in the Bazaar as it's reprinted and not original artwork. You may want to double check with the team. The few I've bought from them are quite obviously reproduced/poorly copied artwork and I'd be pretty disappointed to get it through the system.
