Re: Twilight Time Blu-Ray Deals
I should have received the two titles I ordered last night, they even say delivered. But unfortunately while one of my packages from elsewhere made it, this one is nowhere to be found. Usually (fingers crossed) it just got misdirected right at the end and will be in my box today. But I probably should call the post office in an hour or so and make sure that happens. *sigh*.

Re: Twilight Time Blu-Ray Deals
Unfortunately, USPS is a big culprit in this and its Media Mail handling leaves a lot to be desired. Here's an example of one of my orders from SAE that was shipped out 7/18, with an estimated delivery of 7/24 and which eventually made its way to me on 8/3 after I almost gave up looking at the disaster that the package progress displayed. I live about 40 miles south of Los Angeles and the big sort facility of the package before it gets to my local post office is Los Angeles. Its usually a day or at most two to get to me from Los Angeles - just take a look at how this package progressed through USPS (shown below in reverse chronology - bottom up is the chronology). The mismanagement at USPS is one for the books.

I hope it will, but I have my doubts. The postal service in NYC is definitely not the best. I was rather taken aback by their attitude. They even said that they would rather not have me as a customer should I expect them to actually replace the order. I had an issue with a defective disk a few years back and they were great with taking care of it. I guess their customer service has changed for the worse over those years.

I would consider contacting the Twilight Time rep by PM (or online) on either Bluray.com or HTF. Generally I've found them pretty helpful and if one of their front line CSR is being that belligerent I think I'd want to know. Maybe not, but these reps seem to be closer to the top of the ladder than the bottom.

It did come the next day but I had to call the Post office so they search around for it. The post office rarely loses stuff honestly. But they misdeliver all the time. So you have to be diligent in my experience and stay on them. If that don't work and you don't get the package, then PayPal dispute is your only recourse as TT had proven they won't replace shit.

I tried them both. Thanks much for your assistance. Paypal sided against me (they started the dispute), so now I have the pleasure of trying to deal with my credit card company. Truly a terrible customer service experience. Regardless of if I end up getting the order or not, my days of ordering directly from them are done.

My order arrived yesterday. First disc from TT and am quite impressed so far with the packaging/presentation. Going to sit down and watch it tonight.

I picked up Titus and Fortune. My wife was like...again as I was watching about 8-10 trailers. Lol...but I have a special shelf just for Twilight Time, want to see it? NOOOOOO. She was especially entertaining when I was watching the trailer to Conrack, but you had to be there for it .

Re: Twilight Time Blu-Ray Deals
I use My Movies Pro on my phone but I've been ridiculously lazy about it. I rarely buy apps (my wife bought me a $25 google play card about 2 years ago, I still have $9 on it, lol)...but is Profiler really better than the others...I used to use it years ago and I'm having a huge problem remembering if its any good. I guess for $2.99 I could give it a shot though.

DOGS OF WAR is now sold out. Wondered why my cart got a little lighter! Thankfully I already own it, but wouldn't have minded a duplicate.
Wouldn't be surprised to see more go OOP during this sale.
