OMG!!! I just noticed that Ben Hur, 4-Disc set was $23.09 before discount. It was on my wishlist. Might get that instead of Oldboy now. *thinking*thinking* then they went down ... *sigh*
The forum was down as well. Couldn't connect for the last 5 min. almost.

Looks like Homicide is leading the race right now. Keep those opinions comin'. Thanks!

The Wire is from the people who made Homicide and the first two brilliant seasons are at a great price. I'm not sure either The Wire or Oz will end up with a box set, as they are a bit underrated compared to the other HBO shows. So don't let that hold you back.

Then a got another email that showed them as quantity 1 and that I was being charged for them ($70 btw). When I called them I got zero help.
Eventually this will be made better, but the fact remains I have been charged for something I did not buy – isn’t that the definition of credit card fraud? Not to mention the hassle of sending back the miss-sent DVDs. They have screwed up before, but this makes me furious. This is their mistake, so why is all the burden being placed on me?

Quantity of zero? That sounds very strange, it really happened to you? It's a little hard to believe...

Probably my last order for this sale.
Order #3:
BEN HUR (4D/COLLECTOR'S ED WITH BOOK) $19.19
What's the difference between this release and the other without the book? That one is still $27.xx. I also took the $10 Great Fun cashback offer. I thought they'd offer $20.
