    I've had my share of video late fees, library fines, etc. Maybe I'm weird, but I just suck it up and pay up. It's my own fault I didn't get the item returned/renewed in time, after all.

      Exactly. The only time I made any kind of fuss at all was on two occasions at this one store, where they claimed I had returned something late, and I really hadn't. First time, I was supposedly a day late. The second, it was 11 days. I can see being a day late and not realizing it, but 11 days? I think I'd know if I was that much overdue.

      Needless to say, I stopped renting from that place years ago. I don't think they're even in business anymore.

        same here; the one time i did have a fee, it was on a movie that sucked so badly that i returned it the same day (the store wasn't far from my house), but it was counted as late.

        somehow, i survived without raising a huge fit, making threats or storming off.

          I had a video store tell me that of three movies I returned, at the same time, two were late. Happily, the MOD decided that the logic of my argument was sufficient to remove the late fees.

          Apparently, a new employee decided to flake off on getting on the work done at night, including checking in dropped videos.

          I don't rent anymore. I just pay huge monthly fees to the cable company and buy lots of DVDs on sale.

            I'm currently trying out Netflix. So far, so good (odd that of three shipped at the same time from the same place, one arrived the day after its two cohorts, but NBD).

              Next thing you know, shoplifters that get caught are going to start suing retailers for taking back whatever the criminals tried to steal!
