how about my king kong extended deluxe edition that was "supposedly" shipped on 1/9? i'm still f'ing waiting for it one month later!
i was hoping to give this to my nephew for his birthday on 1/24. yeah, that happened.
FU dvdplanet & google checkout! and i won't even mention the poor customer service i've received. i guess i'll just chalk it up to a $16.64 loss and go on with my life.

I ordered one movie from DVD Planet back on 1/8 and got it about 3 weeks later. I have another order from 1/17, and a couple more since, and no sign of any of them yet.
Is there some reason they take so long? I've had orders from other places showing up within days that are shipping media mail and from farther away.

My Mouchette dvd took 23 days to get to me from shipping notice... and I live about 5 hours away... Then on a second order it only took 4 days... Not real consistant... I have had a couple of orders lost but they have sent replacements without a problem... for all larger orders I always do 2 day UPS shipping... It's worth the peace of mind... Otherwise the 'free' shipping is always an adventure.

Well, today I received the "Conversations with Other Women" which I had ordered on 1/5. I never received a shipment notice, and status through Google still shows "in progress". They never replied to the shipment date query I sent them 2 days ago.
They have kinks to work out in this whole Google system.

Also, I recently had to have a floater replaced by DvdPlanet, and they went ahead and sent the new copy without asking me to return the damaged copy first, which is usually not the norm for them, so I guess it depends on the CSR you talk to - maybe you'll get lucky. The csr I talked to told me to wait until I get the new item before returning the old one - reason being that the floater was in a 5-disc box set, and If i get another set with a floater, hopefully it will be a different disc and I can replace the damaged discs between the two sets so I have a complete, undamaged set and wouldn't have to deal with another return.

Just went through all my Hotmail address that I created to use the promotion with, if I ever get some money
The last three 3 accounts I did all had the email saying they found out that I had created more than one account, and have suspended them. However, the $10 discount still works and my account is still there on one of the accounts I tried.

How many accounts did you set up at the same time?

Some dvds just don't work if you go through google checkout. If you add something with it, it will work fine, but of course, you lose some of the discount.
What title is it btw?

What has worked for me, with access to only one credit card for online spending, is ordering one item at a time. I don't use another email address until the last order I made has shipped. No emails from Google so far.
