Same here. Since they're in such high demand, think they'll raise the price of the clips now?

Thanks to OP for this... I was going to buy this set on day 1, but its $19.99 everywhere so for $4 less I am more than happy to wait for it too be shipped. Also just a note... Best Show EVER!

Congratulations, but I don't get why you are smiling about paying 25 cents MORE for no paper clips than the people who got paper clips and still paid only $16.01?

Maybe he's afraid of paper clips?

Hey, those metal edges can be sharp.

Just to make sure: if I make an order of multiple items with different release dates from Overstock, they ship when they become available, as opposed to having to wait for everything to ship together, right?

You should have no problem getting those paper clips right away. Kudos for not being scared of them.

Excellent! I was worried the release date of AD was going to hold me back; my papers have been flying all over the place lately, just begging to be clipped...

Use this link for $15 off any size order. There is an error which will give $15 off any amount order. Thanks to pammyspyce over at CAG for the link.

They must have fixed the error, tried it three times, but at the 'Shipping & Billing' (which is where the discount is said to take effect) doesn't work. Thanks anyways.

I got my package of paperclips this morning. It was packaged very elaborately for something this small. In the same order, I also orderd InuYasha Movie 4 and they are also shipping this separately from AD as well!

I got my paperclips this morning, but the box was just left on my doorstep, you would think the driver would get the dolly out and carry them into the house for me since Overstock went to the trouble to package them in a box several times larger than necessary AND ship it out to me so quickly. I guess I will risk the back injury.

Heh. Same thing here. I ordered three DVDs along with the clips and only the clips get sent UPS. They made it to me in one day, while I'm going to have to wait awhile for the DVDs. Why couldn't it be the other way around?

Aahhaha, I got the paperclip package as well this afternoon. Why such a huge box for paperclips? The UPS man probably wishes all of his packages were this light...

Mrs. Pusser agrees.


My huge box with paperclips arrived today. She said "you got a really big package but it feels empty."

I received the huge box as well.

Ironically, the DVD will be shipped in padded envelope and get crushed

I got my paperclips today. I told that UPS guy what was in the box, and we had a nice little laugh.

Sweet, I also ordered the 2 disk V for Vendetta set and saved $5.00 over the same exact Amazon order.

Thanks for the heads up!

So, it sounds like a signature wasn't required for the paper clips? I wasn't home when they delivered today (which I never am when UPS comes), and the Infonotice they left said signature is required in person.

I'm going to sign the slip and leave a note on the door tomorrow telling them what's in the package so hopefully they'll just leave the package. I'm afraid if it gets sent back to Overstock I'll lose the coupon.

Ordered yesterday, got the paper clips today. Didn't have to sign for it, but mine didn't come in a box, mine came in a big envelope with lint for padding between the peices of paper of the package. Very messy.

Just got an email that my paper clips shipped yesterday, but I got them yesterday morning. Damn that was fast.

That sucks. Were they broken?

I finally went in for an order as well. I was hoping to wait until Overstock allowed payment through PayPal again (when did they stop?), but couldn't hold out on the deal any longer.

Forget the BestBuy exclusive V for Vendetta/mask set, it's all about the Overstock Arrested Development S3/paper clips set!

Thanks OP.
