If you buy the Original Trilogy DVD's in September, ship the 2004 editions that were packaged with them back to Lucasfilm with a letter stating you didn't receive the bonus discs (you got 2 copies of the 2004 editions in your box) and that you'd like the bonus discs shipped to you. Back up copy BABY! Okay... I'll go back in the corner.

Actually, that might work, as sad as it is. If you ever scratch your DVD's, all you have to do is buy a new copy from a store, then bring your original discs back with your new receipt and say, "What's wrong with this thing? It won't play in my player - I think it's because of this scratch - can I get a new copy?" Then, they give you a fresh copy in the package, which you can in turn bring back anywhere to exchange unopened for store credit to get something entirely different. I'm not saying go do this - or that I ever have - but it's a pretty simple grift.
