I then deleted the 1st item from my cart and was able to complete the order and i just recieved my order confirmation email.
I'm not holding my breath, I was just bored enough to find a backdoor to ordering this set and though I may as well give it a shot.
Nothing ventured, nothing gained.

NICE! I've always wanted this set, but was hesitant at the price point it's been at.
I do think this deal is officially dead now.

I should've ordered this back when I first read about it but I didn't, so I tried the product number method and it went through. We'll see if I get a shipping notice. If not I'll wait for the next round.

I received this message today:
"The following item(s) you ordered on 05/20/2006 are sold out and
will not be shipped:
5246172 1 Complete Hammer House of Horror *DVD 19.95
You do not have any items waiting to ship on this order."
That is a real bummer.

I got the Hammer set yesterday in the mail 
(along with an Avengers set and Benny Hill). I feel truly lucky but I'm sorry to hear that it's now sold out for others. My thanks to OP.

My Monty Python set arrived today. How refreshing to receive a dvd set in an actual box with styrofoam popcorn for padding. I wish other online retailers (i.e. Amazon, DDD, Overstock, etc...) did this as a rule of thumb for all of their dvd orders. Props to Hamilton Books and to the OP!

My Kids in the Hall collections showed up yesterday, along with a newspaper-type Hamilton Bookseller catalogue.
I must be missing out on this Hammer Horror - what is it?

While most of Hammer's theatrical horror releases were period pieces, the TV series was modern day (probably to keep it within budget).

I noticed that my apt number didn't show in my address on my shipping confirmation. So I'm wondering, those who received your sets, how did it arrive? USPS? That would be great as the mailman knows who I am.
Thanks
