I ordered mine on the 20th at about 10:45 AM eastern and received it the other day.

If I login and check my order, it's there but when I click on "View Order" it says, "The order number and billing ZIP code you have entered do not match our records. Please try again."

Placed an order for this around lunch time and just got a cancellation email. Debating if I want to bother trying a second time.

Ordered twice, cancelled twice; the first time it took a week to cancel, the second time a few hours. Still inferring it is available, though it is not easy to find on the website now. I am not sure this is worth all the aggravation.

For those debating, give it a second try. My first order was cancelled but I ordered it again the next day and that order shipped and arrived. I'm not sure why it's still listed at such a low price but it's certainly a great deal if you can get it!

Ordered three times, cancelled twice. There was a period of time where I had two copies on order, one shipped and arrived, before thankfully the third copy was cancelled. As often as my order was cancelled, I definitely felt I needed to have a backup order, and it all worked out in the end. Thanks OP and jwstl for noting that it was back in stock.

Re: The Big Country $3.13 shipped.
Well, after finally reading this thread and seeing the screen captures and this very low price, I figured what the hell... I ordered and it shipped the next day. The correct (thinner) version looks more accurate, but being stretched by about 10% isn't too bad... I'll just pretend that all the actors put on a little weight for this version. If they ever come out with a fixed version, this $3.13 one will tide me over until then and hopefully it'll be tradeable to FYE for at least a couple bucks. Speaking of FYE a bizarrity happened. Usually they won't take Blockbuster "rental" BDs and when they do (seems to depend on the employee) they're usually only worth $3-$4 (which is OK with me as I paid $4 for most of them). This time I took Cats & Dogs 2 and another movie both clearly saying rental, and I got $7.50 each! Weird.
Too bad GoHastings charges sales tax on the shipping too. Most places don't do that.

Does that mean that GoHastings order system is so messed up that they can ship something and not even know it, so you got it for free? That's a good but very YMMV deal.
