If I don't get a shipping notice by next weekend I'm filing a claim.

Right on their website it says shipping may take 7-10 business days, or up to 2 full weeks. You can file a claim, but if it's less two weeks they haven't gone against anything they've claimed.

Actually sorry it's 10-14 working days, and today doesn't count. So about three full weeks. It's on top of the orders page.

I'll give them until the middle of February and then I'm filing a claim with PP. If they don't have them in stock and know they won't be getting more in to fulfill their orders then they have three weeks to let us know.

Some websites buy their inventory over the phone/fax from various vendors.
The vendors then drop ship the merchandise to the final customer on behalf of the selling website. (The website selling the merchandise never sees the merchandise and never takes possession of the merchandise, thus giving the selling website plausible deniability in case the merchandise is not authentic. (fake designer handbags are a good example))
The website pays the invoice which clearly shows xx number of copies of Bond 50 complete box sets. If customers complain that the sets are bootlegs, the selling website can claim they were duped too.
The selling website will make it right to the customer by abiding to their policy of giving store credit on a future purchase for the returned merchandise. The selling website will have captured a bunch of customers who now have store credit to spend at their site.
I hope everyone who ordered gets the real deal, but at this price, it is too good to be true in my opinion.

Uh, if it's bootlegs they can't just give you a store credit, but a full refund. Pretty sure any CC company or Paypal would agree with that statement.

I'm already sick of their emails as well as their stupid name. "Nomorerack"?! That is about as lame as it gets.

The gauntlet of promotional emails from them is daunting. This deal has come back into stock on a couple of different occasions, which makes me question if this is nothing more than a way to build a customer list so they can blast out these emails. Typical marketing cost of acquisition for each unique customer in a business like theirs is worth $25 to $45 per head.

Those emails have been going into my spam folder, only the one confirming the order went to my regular box. If this turns out to be a bust though, what makes them think I'd want to order from them again? If they turn out to be illegal copies, I'll forward them to the MPAA's anti-piracy department though I doubt they'll do much with them.
I've been getting emails from DVDPlanet after ordering the Twilight Zone deal, that was a good deal and I'd certainly order from them again.

Haven't gotten any spam and I've never fiddled with Gmail's built-in spam filter, the only one that has gotten to my Inbox was for the orders themselves (the set and some.... sport suspension aids for the gym ).

I forgot yesterday was a holiday and was getting worried that mine wouldn't even get through the payment stage. It went through PayPal right away but took a few days to go through my bank. Went through today though. Maybe it'll actually show up. Never thought I'd get the Twilight Zone or Dick Van Dyke sets but that happened so who knows?

Just received a shipping notice for the set, whoohoo! My other clothing order hasn't shipped, and it was ordered a day later.

No shipping e-mail and the order still says "processing" on the site, but it does have a USPS tracking number.
