I ordered mine on June 10th and it was shipped June 17. Got it the following week. I have no problem with these guys, and will have no reservations about ordering from them again.

I feel your pain. I have ordered a number of times in the past with DVDSoon and had little or no problem. Once in a while there is a problem order like the time I ordered The Outer Limits and had to wait over a month before I received it. I had pre-ordered the item and they kept changing the release date and before you know it it was in the stores and I still didn't have it. Maybe the Canadian release dates are different or their distributer screwed them up, who knows.
Why did I still order from them? Well price mainly. If they continued to mess around with orders I would have given up on them but like I said I have had generally good luck.
I think you got caught in a stocking problem. I think Robocop Box Set was in their top 15 sales.
So you may want to give it more time if your not in a rush to have the set. I mainly only purchase box sets from them anyway. They tend to be $5-10 less(sometimes more) than everyone else. If there is a less than $5 difference I think twice since they charge the credit card at time of order.
Like I've said before no e-tailer is perfect. I have also ordered from Deep Discount and have had to wait weeks for backorder items.
That's my 2 cents for what it's worth.

I just tracked my package and here are the details:
Date of Event Time of Event Location Description Retail Location Signatory Name
2004/06/09 23:29 MONTREAL, QC Shipping details electronically submitted
So, the Canadian Post Tracking is useless cuz I have no idea where my set is.

Well, my Robocop Trilogy finally shipped out from DVDSoon, over a month after I ordered it.
I hope it doesn't take another month for it to arrive in the mail. The other part of my order from them shipped a week ago, and I received it today, so hopefully a week from now I'll be holding Robocop in my hands.

Thankfully, I have such a huge backlog that things like this don't really affect me.

I still never received mine cuz it was lost in the mail. Now the reshipment is still on order. My Twelve Angry Men is also on order.
I spoke with a CSR and they said that they're havin' trouble gettin' shipments in from MGM. That said, I'll never get my movies.
I BLAME CANADA!!!

After ordering this on 6/2/04, I finally received this today, 9/15/04.
It was lost in the mail and it took them over a month to get the replacements in. The only good part was that my replacement took less than a week to get to me after it was shipped.
3+ months is GREAT 
Needless to say, I don't think that I'll be ordering from DVDSoon.com in the near future.
