Yeah, my copy of AD just arrived and it's the same thing here - a carboard envelope with no packing material whatsoever. Nothing appears to be damaged, though.

So does anyone's tracking number for AD work (beginning REE w/ 7 numbers)? It's clearly the wrong tracking code for that service. I just want to know when it's gonna be here so I can take a trip to Wee Britain to see the Poppuns.

My paper clips just showed up, but they were not in a huge box. I received them in a crappy UPS bubble thing, and the box was totally squashed!

Not only were the paperclips packed in a box with bubble wrap, and the DVD just sent in a paper envelope, but the paperclips were hand delivered by a courier while the DVD just showed up in my mailbox today with the other mail.

I got my paperclips from UPS and my Arrested Development DVDs are coming via normal postal delivery. Weird.

Got mine last night and finally watched the last 3 episodes. The final scene with Opie was perfect(and hopefully prophetic).

God, I miss this show so much.

Got mine DVD's today, too - in that gi-normous cardboard "envelope". I never received a shipping confirmation email ( shrugs ).

I was gone for the weekend and when I got back the mailbox was suspiciously empty.

I'm trying to figure out if my package was stolen or not.
My tracking number says that the post office in my city received the package on the 25th, but it still hasn't been delivered.

Those of you who got your dvd already, does your tracking number say whether it has been delivered or not?

If my package was stolen what should I do? Thank you.

The tracking for mine stopped at the point when UPS gave the package to USPS (my order was shipped through UPS-Mail Innovations), so there was no shipping confirmation for me.

I received an Overstock.com order yesterday. It had a tracking number thru USPS media mail and it is now correctly showing as delivered. There is even a time stamp that corresponds to around the time my postal carrier was in the neighborhood yesterday.

My tracking hasn't been updated since Saturday, but I received the paper/cardboard envelope in the mail today with minimal damage. Thanks again to the OP for the heads-up.

3 people at work want to BORROW this! Go get your own copy! Tonight I'll re-watch the last episode and burn FOX in effigy.

Haven't gotten mine yet either.

I still find it funny that the single best-packaged order I've received all year from anybody has been a 15-cent box of paperclips. A co-worker had to sign for the (huge) box when it arrived, and he nearly shat himself once I showed him what was inside. "That's..IT?!"

Didn't get mind yet, either, but the tracking shows that it's at the local post office so I should have it tomorrow (my day off!). Yay.

Yeah, just check one of the two threads about it. Either the Costco one or the AD for $8.09 one.

We haven't figured out how to combine the thread titles yet.

I just received mine from Overstock. It was in that horrible packaging, but I must say, it is actually in perfect condition. Whew!
