This appears to be a misprice as they have the list price at $49.99 and everyone else has $69.99.
I ordered it. We'll see if they honor it.

Does this have anything at all to do with John Lennon?

Nope. It was a 1 season show from the mid 90s. Kind of Twilight Zone type thing where a man's life comletely changes and he's trying to figure out why. On the plus side, even though it is only one season, some of the central questions are answered in the 1st season, unfortunately it just leads to more questions that aren't answered :( http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0112104/

I'll give it a shot. Excellent show. Tried to capitalize on X-Files' early success but couldn't find an audience. Bruce Greenwood is excellent in it.

Definite misprice though as this is a 9 disc set.

D'oh! For those that got in on this, let us know if they honor the misprice.

Actually that's new. When the "it's dead" was first posted it was at $49.99.

Interesting. Maybe it wasn't selling at the higher price?
Even with a list price of $49.99, $29.00 is a very good price. I'm not so sure anyone will beat that including DVD Empire which now has it at $31.61.

I'm sure Amazon and DDD will have similarly lower prices once they take into account the new SRP. This is great news since the original SRP was pretty high!
ps. - this thread ought to be renamed to something about how the SRP price has been lowered, since this is not just a pricing mistake/sale at dvdempire.

I loved this show, but wish they could have ended it a bit better ... too bad it was cancelled.

Missed out on this the first time around, I think I'll wait and see what other retailers mark it at now that the list price is lower. Amazon has updated the MSRP but not their price (it's available for a whopping 2% discount right now -wink-)

11-02-05, 04:20 PM
Amazon has it for $35 already.

glad the price dropped. Thanks for the coupon Brett. Ordered.
If it is lower at other sites, I can always cancel later, it doesn't come out until late Dec. anyway. Plenty of time to compare.

This is an awesome show. Anyone on the borderline, get this. It's very intriguing. Or at least it seemed to be when I was in HS. :lol:

:lol: I was thinking the same thing when I hit the submit order button. Just wondering if it will hold up as well next to newer serials like Lost & 24.
I never made it through to the end so I at least have that to look forward to.

It's an awesome show. But be warned that it only ran one season. They did wrap it up well as I recall, but also opened the door for lots more. Similar to how Carnivale ended I'd say. It will leave you wanting more, but there's no more to be had. :(

You could always start watching FIRST WAVE, which has a similar feel + BONUS aliens.

I might get this just to see the last two episodes, which I missed.

Has this shipped for anyone yet? Most etailers seem to have it but DVDempire is still "on order"?

I placed my order on November 1st, yet it shows "Out of Stock" for me. You'd think that two months would be enough lead time to make sure you get a copy...!

mine hasn't shipped...kinda strange..dvdempire is usually pretty good about sending pre-orders...someone can try their online live chat help thingy if they want and ask about a ETA but I doubt it'd be much help..

According to their CSR they had a problem w/ the distributor, they hope to have them in and start shipping them before the end of the week.

Still nothing here. Still states backorder on the site.
Pilot or nemein, wanna remove the quotation marks from the thread title? I couldn't seem to find this thread searching for 'nowhere' and I think that is the reason.
Brett
01-10-06, 01:16 PM
I sent a message to CS asking what is taking so long. Every other retailer seems to have it, so I'm not sure why they haven't gotten it yet. I'm hoping maybe they'll send me a coupon or upgrade the shipping to make up for the delay.

I just contacted DVDEmpire support via live chat, was told the same story of problems with the distributor. I asked whether any discount or free shipping would be given to those affected by the delay, he asked me to wait a couple of minutes, then came back and said that he had applied free expedited USPS shipping to the order. FWIW, better than nothing!
Brett
01-10-06, 07:14 PM
Yeah I just got a response back and they said they are hoping to start shipping them tomorrow and that they would upgrade me to first class shipping for free.

Thanks pilot, as well as the others. I'm going to skip calling for expedited shipping. I have a half dozen other sets still in the queue before this one. No rush for me, just glad to see it finally shipping.

You may want to call anyways as they will give you completely free shipping, not just a free upgrade to expedited shipping. My set is now showing as $28 w/ the $1.00 coupon I already had applied to the order.
