James Bond 50 complete box set - $39 shipped (All 23 films up to Skyfall)
I'm pretty sure they have committed some kind of mail fraud.

So does these release have the uncut version of Casino Royale, or can you still only get that overseas?

I've got 20 dollars of credit since I ordered 2 in separate orders. If I get my refund OK, I may use it.

My package was delivered in Seattle today. Did anyone get anything delivered to their house? And if not, how is that even possible that every shipment went to the wrong address (and wrong City/State)?

Yeah, I get that. But a scam is you take the money and then don't send the merchandise, or you send shoddy or pirated or stolen merchandise. What's the angle in sending out a tracking number and sending something over a thousand miles away from its intended recipient?

Yeah, I know. That is the one very odd aspect about this particular scam. I've never heard of false verifiable tracking information given before. I really would like to know what was sent - or rather if anything was sent at all.

Who says they sent anything? They probably just generated a fake delivery number.

Yeah, but a fake delivery number you can pull up on the USPS site, that actually shows something in transit? How does one do that?

I guess they could send an empty box to a random address in the intended city to make it look like they sent the item? Tracking doesn't give specific addresses.

I'm sure the tracking #'s are actually real items going to real customers. But they are def not tracking #'s for any Bond set.

You'd think people would have learned from the Horror Movie Empire/ $10 Blue Underground discs episode to never give one's money to a previously unknown vendor on the mere promise of ridiculously cut-throat prices on Blu-Rays.
If it's too good to be true, that's because it's not true.

I thought this was painfully obvious ... the tracking numbers are real. They gave you somebody else's tracking number for the shirt or lampshade which they shipped to that person.

This "deal" happened at the worst possible time for Nomorerack. They have commercials getting run for the first time across cable at the moment.

Got the e-mail about the credit this morning and it is listed on my account now.
Just for kicks, I ordered $10 of AA batteries. Since I didn't have to enter any payment info, I figured I've got nothing to lose. It's not like I'm going to receive any more junk e-mails from them than I already am, right?

This is the saddest thread I've read in a long time. 
It would be interesting for all of you to post your tracking number and its history to see if any of you were given the same numbers.
