This is good enough for me. Most of us may be waiting awhile before they actually ship but I'm in no hurry since my plan was to buy this during the DDD 20% off sale in Nov/Dec (if it happens) so if this is a "real deal" then I'm thrilled (especially since I paid over 80 each for Season 1&2).

Hey Rogue, on the first page of this thread your post contains your order number. People could be using that to see the status of your order... Why? I don't know. That could be why you are getting those e-mails though.

lets hope this works, i doubt it though, considering this offer is still valid and when compared to circuitcity's mistake, they corrected the price immediately

I gave it a try. I'm a big Farscape fan, so this would be sweet if it went through. Now if only I could afford seasons 1 and 2...

Thanks for the catch. I hope it comes through. Damn me for living in Florida got hit with sales tax on top, not too bad $2.57 extra. It said back order and I didn't uncheck the box. So I hope it goes thru.

I got an e-mail that it was shipped, so I headed to the website and it also claims it was shipped.


Awesome.


Too bad I won't get to watch it for another 9 months. I had it sent to my parents house.

FWIW - This "sale" is also on Suncoasts' sister sites - MediaPlay & SamGoody. Guess they all use the same DB of info. Of course, they all show as "backorder".

We sit and wait. Do they charge before they ship?

Now that the deal is dead, lets hope they actually shipped the ones they said they shipped, and honor all the backorder ones.

My order status says the set has been shipped as well, hope this goes through, because as somebody said earlier, the price is back up to $134.xx.

Well, when I tried to place my order originally, I got the "movie not available" error but just like you guys I saw it sitting in my cart! I went ahead and placed my order.

Yesterday my order was in the "1. Your order is currently being processed." as it was backordered. Today it says "2. Your order is being prepared for shipment" so I guess they are working on fulfilling the backorders!

Thanks OP for the sweet deal!
