Random Question For Americans

[deird_lj]

Okay. I've got to ask.


American flist people: when you hire a video from Blockbuster or similar, do you pay the store when you leave with the video, or when you bring it back?

*starting to suspect the world has differences I never knew about*

That's easily fixed by "if you don't return it by this date, you can't rent again".

People only pay late fees upon return, and yet people still return videos that are late.

People aren't as dishonest as you think :-p

Weeeell...I've known people who've happily rented a heap, then never returned them. Easier to do when you move suburb or town and then you can start it all over again...
Takes all sorts.
But yes, I'd hope most people would be more honest.
