It seems more and more eBay sellers are selling dvds with shrink wrap removed and being sold in 'new like condition'. What is the rationale

[elc42]

What is the rationale with regard to selling dvds; shrink wrap removed and selling in 'new like condition'? (listing prices are as much as sellers advertising new dvds)

[scifan57]

Maybe they're selling ex rental DVDs that never saw much use?

They watched the movie and didn't care for it? They recorded the movie onto another for their own use and are selling the original?
