It happens from time to time that I can't find a specific dvd in my shelves. I'm re- sorting my collection very often to optimize the place in the shelves.

The most scariest part is when I find an empty case... 

I have lost the movie disc (still have the bonus features disc) of the Rocky Horror Picture Show 25th Anniversary Edition. Not sure how it escaped, but somehow it pulled the disappearance trick

So has anyone misplaces a DVD? Or worst lost one?

I suppose I might have lost quite a few - I wouldn't know until I looked for them (!) but as far as i know I've only lost/misplaced one, and that was a month or so ago. I was taking all my Doctor Who classic series releases and putting them into new separate shelving, that will take the whole of the releasable range, and couldn't find Attack of the Cybermen.

I wasn't worried at the time as I knew that one was in my travel bag as I was due to listen to the commentary on it next in order but when a little while later I noticed it wasn't there either it became clear it had got lost somehow...  I still think it's around the house somewhere as I don't think I'd have left it in a hotel room as I'm always careful before checkout and I'm thinking maybe I removed it from the travel bag intending to put it on the new shelf and put it down somewhere mid-transit...

My greatest fear about the loss is that, if it really has got left somewhere, since it was in a bag with other DVDs am I going to find out later I've got a few more missing ... so far though I haven't spotted any gone that I was carrying around with me so fingers crossed that's good news for the Cyberman disc turning up sometime!

It has happened to me on a few occasions. But I have been lucky enough to always find them. I guess this happens easily when you have a kid.

You don't have a teenager do you?

A co-worker of mine recently discovered several of his "missing" DVDs lying scattered about his teenage stepson's bedroom in varying states of disrepair (scratched, broken, lying on the floor out of the box, etc.).  He was not a happy man.

I have 2 or 3 in my collection noted as "Loaned" to "?" since I haven't the foggiest idea where they got to.  They've probably been mislaid since we moved 6 1/2 years ago. 

Just lost one yesterday, thankfully like 99.9% of my losses, it was sitting theer on the shelf, just the wrong place on the wrong shelf.
So far I've only lost my Highlander Imoortal Edition. Lent it to a work bud who misplaced it and years later still hasn't found it.

Although it feels like at least a dozen dvds grow feet and walk off a year, they don't walk far and are usually found within a week or less.

I've done that before too.  I had one DVD set for a tv show that I forgot where I put soon after I got it.  I was sure I had put it in one place, but it wasn't there.  I looked all around and was convinced it had accidentally fallen into a trash can that sits in that area.  I finally found it in a completely different place, long after I was convinced it was gone.
