Re: Shout / Scream Factory Blu-ray Sales
Placed a sizable order, I am a t-shirt guy so I ordered from Shout’s website and if shipping takes longer than Amazon I can be patient. I suspect that for a lot of these titles it will be the best price available for quite some time into the future. I liked that The Howling and They Live 4K were on sale and grabbed them both. The Battle Beyond the Stars set with the figurine was a blind buy but at half off I took the gamble. Only box set I grabbed was the Critters one.
Folks, there is a fun 1957 science fiction film called The Monolith Monsters blu ray that is part of the sale, and worth buying in my humble opinion. I have seen it twice and will be watching it again soon enough.

Re: Shout / Scream Factory Blu-ray Sales
You possibly have time for a 4th... they still have the sale prices on stuff as of ~1pm on the 9th...
I'd put together a 3rd, forgot to place it Friday night, woke up Saturday to discover the prices were still good, placed the order... and I'm considering looking through everything again...

Re: Shout / Scream Factory Blu-ray Sales
I resisted a 4th order... 3 is quite enough! Well... I also have a nice list of things in the current Kino sale I really want more so...

Re: Shout / Scream Factory Blu-ray Sales
Same here, ended up at just those initial three orders. Ordered a couple things from today’s Prime Day deals, and three Criterions so far, so I’ll have too much to watch anytime soon anyway.

Re: Shout / Scream Factory Blu-ray Sales
Like you, I'll soon have far too many new titles - and I've been trying to keep it to a watch 5 or 6 order 1 ratio and keep those new titles to BR upgrades of my top 200 titles or "new to me" titles... At least what I've ordered falls mostly into the upgrade and "new to me" self imposed rule but totally breaks the watch to buy ratio (and it will take months to "catch up").

Received a shipping notice for one of my three orders today, placed on Sept. 29, so presumably others will see packages shipping soon.

Received Virus, Vice Squad, and Orca The Killer Whale, so they are slowly but surely shipping orders out.

Re: Shout / Scream Factory Blu-ray Sales
I'm getting trickles of stuff from 3 orders... 2 more titles shipped yesterday from 2 different orders. So far I've received 12 of the 19 titles ordered. Not expecting the 3 t-shirts until mid-late December.

Re: Shout / Scream Factory Blu-ray Sales
Put in three exceedingly large orders – mainly to clear out the remaining Shout titles that still interested me and be done with the label for a while (got three t-shirts as a result) – and so far only one item has shipped, the only DVD in the entire order. I know they post a warning that items may ship from different warehouses, but I'm not fond of the practice when so few other labels do that. Don't mind waiting for a bulk or combined shipments.

Re: Shout / Scream Factory Blu-ray Sales
To the person who said do not expect most of your order until well after 10/31, you hit the nail on the head. I received 3 titles as mentioned a few messages up, and another over the weekend (The Monolith Monsters, which I highly recommend, but keep in mind I am not a professional reviewer like some of the wonderful reviewers on this site so it is okay if you take what I say with a grain of salt). Another 2 titles are on their way, so getting my order in dribs and drabs it is then, lol.
Of the 14 items (including the free t-shirt, which I know will not ship until possibly sometime after 12/20/22) 9 have not shipped yet. I am fine with this as the sale was legit and I am not surprised they were flooded with orders.

Re: Shout / Scream Factory Blu-ray Sales
Outside the t-shirts, my first 2 orders finally, completely, shipped and arrived. Currently awaiting the last 6 titles (of 7) for order #3.
Considering the number of shipments, they could have knocked off $1/title, shipped everything in one box, and saved us both money.
**EDIT**
And.... my last order has, outside the t-shirt, fully shipped.

Outside of I believe Sputnik and my t-shirt, I received the bulk of my order today. I was impressed, everything was well packed and the Battle Beyond The Stars set w/lithograph, Valkyrie NECA figure and steel book blu ray were in their own box and also well packed, which was a great deal for $35. Also really happy with the 4Ks of The Howling and They Live for $17.50 each, and they came with slipcovers.
I do not buy a lot of physical media nowadays, but no buyer’s remorse with the films I picked up from Shout.

Re: Shout / Scream Factory Blu-ray Sales
Got my t-shirts a few weeks back (week of Christmas IIRC) - nice looking.
BUT I was quite annoyed that the company who made and shipped them for Shout! started spamming me about other junk they sell as soon as they shipped! I quickly unsubscribed, let them know I did *not* subscribe to their emails, and complained to Shout! for sharing my email with them without my explicit permission. I never heard back from either but also haven't received any more emails from the t-shirt company.
