Re: Alien Anthology $40 shipped Amazon UK
It has nothing to do with Amazon UK or any store overseas for that matter; it's an issue with weather and security delaying the delivery service. This will no way affect my opinion of Amazon UK. I don't care if it takes 6 weeks to get to me if the price is right.

Re: Alien Anthology $40 shipped Amazon UK
I sent an inquiry email about my order, and was told to wait a few more days to see if it does arrive. I expected a delay, and really don't mind, but I do become concerned when too much time has passed. I'm hoping that it does arrive sometime soon.

Re: Alien Anthology $40 shipped Amazon UK
I have another order(non Alien related) that was placed on Dec. 5th that had an ETA of Dec. 29th and I still haven't received it. I just sent them an email to be on the safe side since it was supposed to be here 3 weeks ago. This is for a single 1 disc Blu-ray movie.

Re: Alien Anthology $40 shipped Amazon UK
I wrote to Amazon UK about not getting my order (from Dec. 15) and just got this reply:
Dear Customer,
I am sorry that you have not received the order #203-blah-blah-blah.
At this point, I can only assume that your order is lost.
I have now placed a new order #203-blah-blah-bleh for the same item to be sent to the same delivery address:
GirlsRHot, California
United States
We will post it to you as soon as possible at no additional charge.
Please note that within 15 workings days of this free replacement, you will receive an e-mail asking whether the original order was received to date. A response to this e-mail is required and we reserve the right to charge your original payment method or claim for payment for the above order if a response is not received within 14 days of the dispatch of the e-mail.
Your response is required for audit purposes with Royal Mail so that Amazon can claim the cost of the order for non-arrival. It is a requirement from Royal Mail that the recipient of the parcel confirms whether the original order was received.
To view the estimated delivery date of your order, please visit Your Account from our home page:
So, it looks like Amazon is going to attempt to collect for their losses from Royal Mail.

Hopefully, this one will work out.
As I was getting ready to type this e-mail, I got an Amazon box delivered to my office and I got psyched for second. Then, I realized is wasn't UK. It was the blank DVD's I purchased... YESTERDAY! Amazon Prime RULES!!!

Re: Alien Anthology $40 shipped Amazon UK
I'm still waiting on mine, what's odd is I ordered a cd earlier this month and it arrived yesterday. I guess because of the small size. I will wait until the end of the month to contact them
