Sorry for taking forever to respond!! (-_-) As far as I know the thin packs and fat packs are the same except of course the thin packs do take up less space but I can't really tell you whats in the thin packs since i don't own any. I'm just anal and don't want to risk my sanity by mixing fat and thin....not that there's anything wrong with that

The discs are exactly the same, simply repackaged to take up less space.

.... so what about the packaging itself, fat packs VS slim? Can anybody report on that? Is the artwork the same on both? Does one have more photos/artwork/copy/etc. than the other?

The new "thin" sets contain six DVDs stored in three slimline double keepcases. The artwork on the slimlines is the same on all three, which is the same artwork that appears on the front cover of the slipcase.

The older "fat" cases contain six DVDs stored in a seven-paneled "fold-out" that contains artwork not seen in the newer slim set. The extra art consists mostly of promotional pictures overlaid with quotes from the show. This also comes with booklet that lists the episodes on each disc. (Not sure if the booklet also comes with the slim set.)

The discs themselves, as well as the disc art, are identical across all iterations (slim, fat, and chosen deluxe box) as far as I know.

Probably won't make you feel any better (unless misery loves company), but a bunch of us placed orders for J & R's Pre-Thanksgiving sale on Nov. 17. Orders were supposed to ship Nov. 24, but most of them are "still processing". Plus, they haven't responded to emails. For my money, DDD is a lot more user-friendly. Anyway, hope you get your order shipped soon.

I ordered season 1 and 2 of X-Files

went to see my order status today and they are on backorder.

I'm thinking they won't ship till after the sale is over and then I won't get this discount

should I cancel?

If you bought them already, then you locked in the sale price (regardless of when they ship).

The Stargate sets I got from DVD Planet are the slim sets, I highly doubt that they are different at deepdiscount.

Millennium is fantastic. Good buy if you're a fan of X-Files and Lost and other conspiracy-type shows.
