DVD Empire: Letter To Santa

Well, today is the drawing and I was just wondering what everyone chose for their 5 DVDs. Here are my five:

Cowboy Bebop: Limited Edition Box Set
Stanley Kubrick Box Set (new)
Monty Python Flying Circus: The Complete Collection
Classic Monster Collection
Godfather Collection


It never said anywhere in the rules that the 5 DVDs couldn't be box sets.

Also, how many people did you send it to to verify an entry? Good luck to all.

OH MY GOD!!! I just got an e-mail from DVD Empire saying I won! There must not have been many people who entered, because I don't have good luck. I just hope there's not a problem with the box sets I chose.

I hate to be complaining, since they are free, but now they're telling me that they won't ship anything until they're all 5 in stock. So in other words, I'll probably never get them. I'm almost willing to pay them to ship them as they become available. Seriously, the odds of all 5 of these DVDs being in stock at one time is slim to none. As soon as one DVD finally shows as IN-STOCK , another one goes ON ORDER.

I found the old pages at DVDEmpire with all the contest info:

In case the links don't work (and even if it does, you should probably save them to your HD) I copied the text below.

This Holiday season we decided to do something a bit different. We’re giving away 5 DVDs to 3 Lucky customers. Not that different so far? Did we mention you get to pick which FIVE?

Thanks for the links, Steve. I'm glad it says Choose from every DVD in our inventory, because I was a little worried about getting all box sets. It doesn't say anything about separate shipping in the rules, so I guess I'll e-mail them and ask if that's alright.
