I ordered a pair of DVD storage stands last week and was very surprised to have them arrive the other day. That's fast delivery and with the 20% discount, it's a great deal for storage furniture.

I'm thinking about grabbing this Bruce Lee's Collector's Set for my Dad for XMas. He's a huge martial arts film fan and doesn't have any of these films I believe.

HistoryAvenger,

Do you mind posting a copy of the e-mail you sent DDD? Every time I e-mail them I get responses that seem like they didn't read it in the first place. Clearly, whatever you sent them was written well enough for them to honor your request. I was just about to send them an e-mail regarding the SFU collection as well, and I really want it to be quick and painless...

I've found the best way to deal with DDD (and most other website's CS) is to be very brief in explaining what you want done. Earlier this week when the site screwed up on the Tuesday ordereds I sent an email that was simply "Cancel Order #XXXXXXXX Thank You" and they did it right away. I've gone beyond the point of trying to explain rationale and such to them now.

So far all my orders have shipped except the most recent, which I ordered last night (Avalon) and the MPD Psycho Boxset which has been backordered (and that actually got moved back from 11/20 to 11/22. hrmph).

why not call the 800 number and talk to customer support. they've been answering the phones pretty quick and are very well informed- and in the US. we posted about this yesterday. i was on and off the phone in a couple minutes with my problem.

I haven't placed my order yet, I was hoping to find Fraggle Rock S.2 and Everybody Hates Chris cheaper from somewhere else. Meanwhile my order keeps growing, especially after reading here.

well, my order was only $75, so i am not sure that would do it. anyone else get free 2-day shipping on any order?

I totally agree...I too ordered some new releases on monday night. I recieved the order info (the first e-mail) and then nothing. I just checked my order status and it shipped yesterday.
But when the sale started, after i ordered i recieved the 3 (info, confirmation and shipping) emails within 24 hours.

The website clearly states that a item or and order can be canceled up to 24 hours before the ship date, however when I called, I was told nothing could be done. The lady said she couldn't cancel the order even if it was back ordered and DDD doesn't price adjust sale items. Therfore, I told her that I would just reorder the item and return the more expensive one. She went on to tell me I couldn't, because I could only use the coupon once. Once I told her I already placed multiple orders using diffrent coupons, I was advised to call back tomorrow and maybe they would be able to help me then........ Absolutely Astonishing!!
Today I get an email from DDD letting me know that the Customer Service Rep made a mistake and I will be refunded the diffrence of the Six Feet Under set. I hope that was just an isolated incident with a bad CSR, either way I'm very pleased with the result.

Just got an email from DDD saying that M*A*S*H Martinis & Medicine Collection is slow to ship from the manufacturer and will not ship from DDD until November 30.

At least they let us know. I ordered a few as Christmas gifts...
