Bootleg DVDs

Here's my question. I work in an Oxfam shop. Today, someone donated the entire LOTR trilogy to us on DVD. Real nice. And of course someone bought it. But they asked me how I was sure that it wasn't a bootleg. And of course I couldn't. It says Entertainment in Video on it, it appears to have all the right marks and everything else, but if you were making a bootleg, wouldn't you put all those things on it as well? Or would that just be making your crime even more serious?

Of course I could have played it, but I don't have a DVD player in the shop.

See how I answer my own question so I don't look like a loser?

Maybe the fakker's a perfectionist?

The thing is, if you're buying used DVDs in an Oxfam shop, then why do you care if it's bootleg?

How come you get LOTR DVDs in your Oxfam shop, and the best we get at ours is Bryan Ferry promos? Which Oxfam do you work at?
