I got my orders quickly. They shipped on a Thursday and arrived the next Tuesday. That was good for free shipping.

If anyone opened my DVDs their ass would be hurting. Don't ask me what I ordered, it's my DVDs fucker. Sorry, that didn't even happen to me, but fuck if it did.

Order placed 6/16 Shipped 6/17 Received ?

Order placed 6/17 Shipped 6/19 Received 6/26

The guy just delivered the above order. One of the hired guns USPS uses to dropoff packages. I can only presume he thought nobody was home because, I wish I was exagerrating, he literally shot put the box at the door, nailing it, from about 20 feet away and ran. WTF? Anyway to report these people as he clearly is not in the right profession?

10 DVDs, 2 floaters.

It will either list the correct AR, 2.40:1, or have a sticker over the old aspect ratio with the 2.40:1 correction. If it doesn't have either, I believe it is the modified release.

Finally received my first order today ... shipped 6/13, arrived 6/26 ... which translates into about 1.4 miles per day.

Got two of four orders today. Shipped 6/17 and 6/20 for orders placed on 6/16 and 6/18. Possibly the fastest turnaround for a DDD order for me ever. Excellent job this sale. Free regular shipping with no floaters it seems (haven't opened them yet, but sound okay). My only surprise was to learn that the Valerio Zurlini "Box Set" was not a box at all, just a 2-discer. Silly me My other two orders seem to have been upgraded to UPS and I should get them tomorrow if I am home. Happy I am.

Small update to the post below in bold, but my sent packages are still MIA. The one that shipped on the 6th is up for the 15 day rule tomorrow, so if it's not on my porch I'll be emailing DDD again.

Order #4 - placed 6/14, shipped 6/15, haven't received yet
Order #5 - placed 6/14, shipped 6/15, haven't received yet

And sort of on topic, I placed a couple of orders during the Geneon sale.
Order #1 - placed 5/26, shipped 5/27, never received - DDD shipped out replacement on 6/20
Order #2 - placed 5/26, shipped 6/6 (preorder), haven't received yet

Before these sales I've only had two packages go missing and I can't believe I'm having problems with both shipments from the geneon sale. Plus, I've got a sinking feeling with orders #4 and #5 from the 20% off sale because my first two made it to me in four days. It's getting to the point where I'm worried that DDD is going to think I'm scamming them by reporting so many shipments missing. I wish they'd just include tracking with their free shipping - RightStuf does it now for theirs so I can't see why a much larger etailer like DDD can't afford it.

I just got my first season of The Dead Zone. I haven't opened it yet. I noticed a couple odd things about the way it was shrinkwrapped. First, the security stickers are on the OUTSIDE of the shrinkwrap. Second, there is no outer box so once you remove the shrinkwrap it'll tend to expand itself unless it's next to something else on either side of the shelf. Every other TV series set I've bought (as I recall) has had an outer box/slipcase of some sort.

For those of you who bought The Dead Zone Season 1 from DDD, is this the normal, official packaging or did someone steal the outer box and rewrap it?

The last of my DDD sale orders arrived today. Thanks, DDD! I'm very happy with my purchases and nothing was damaged. I'm extremely satisfied!

Mine didnt have an outer box either when I bought it several years ago so I think this is normal for this set

I know a few people ordered this spinning DVD stand besides me:

1 LDE10405 CD 1040 REVOLVING MULTI-MEDIA-OAK $ 159.96 Backorder

Mine is on backorder and was estimated to ship today, but has not shipped yet.

Anybody receive one yet?

I know it's being drop-shipped from the manufacturer rather than DDD.

Anyone received Galaxy Quest yet? It has an expected ship date of 6/22, but obviously that came and went. It's the only thing left that hasn't shipped yet for me.

I ordered on 6/17 (last day of the sale) and it was backordered. I'll give it another week and maybe try calling them.

Has anyone experienced an issue where DeepDiscount changed the zip code you put in for you address? I sent an email to them about the one dvd shipment not arriving and they replied with the address they shipped to. Everything is correct with the exception of the zipcode. I went to check what I put in on the website and it has my correct address on there including the zipcode. Weird..

My final order arrived today. It shipped last Tuesday. Everything in excellent shape. They combined 2 orders and shipped them in a single box. No stuffed paper filling but everything fit nicely.

No floaters as far as I can determine.

That was just the box opening ceremony. Cases to be opened later.

Yes, but I ordered it on the 11th and it shipped on the 13th. I am still waiting on 4 discs that were backordered. 3 have "shipped' but I havent seen them yet, they were all shippe don different dates. My 'big' order was shipped UPS Express, I hope this were sent USPS because if the were shipped UPS Ground I am going to have to refuse them due to the high brokerage fees.
