DDD/DVD Planet shipping?
Do they both ship from the same warehouse to the same original post office?Just wondering because I ordered first from DDD then two days later ordered from DVD Planet-both with free shipping-received the DVD Planet order a week ago and haven't received squat from the DDD order.

Just received an order from the UK in which I ordered 4 days after the DDD order and still haven't received the DDD order.Something is fishy with media mail deliveries from DDD and I am only about 4 hours away from them.Usually get media mail deliveries from DVD Empire in three days and they are probably further away than DDD.

media mail sucks if you want your stuff in a reasonable amount of time.
I got an order of 18 DVDs from some retailer and the package sat in one mail processing center for 4 straight days for no apparent reason. Basically, usps sat one it for days because it's media mail.

The only place I have had a problem with media mail is DDD.Maybe the post office doesn't like them and they put there packages in storage for long periods of time.

I shipped out a DVD I sold on ebay and I asked the Post Office clerk what the difference is between media mail and first class. She told me that if there is no room left on the shipping vehicle, the media mail stuff stays behind until there is room for it (which could be any amount of time).
I assume that DDD ships out so much media mail (moreso than other etailers) that alot of it gets hung up in this way.

I hear people complain about DDDs shipping all the time, but I order stuff from there a lot and have never had a single problem, always got there within a week, or 10 days at the very latest.

I never received the order so I called for a refund.
