the easiest way to prevent problems like this is put limit to one or two per customer so a few "super" abusers don't ruin it for the rest...

yeah. that would be cool. that way everybody could get what they want. the 2 i wanted chitty chitty bang bang raging bull are no longer available.

DVD Planet does that, but the same items were taken off of their sale page too.

DAMN ,I was all set to buy one X-files and 1 Stargate complete sets for my 2 nephews for Christmas.

Since it was noticed that some of the items had been removed, it caused me to make my order a little faster than I had planned. Didn't want to risk the one or two that I wanted being taken out of the sale.

I ordered the Porky's Ultimate Collection and the Studio Classics: Best Picture Collection for $20.97 total. I know they're two completely different kinds of movie sets, but I've been wanting both these for quite a while. Awesome deal!

can the discount code be used more than once???

Yup! I used it twice.

Rob

I used it 3 times.

Will ones that were already ordered (I placed an order on 11/29 at about 2:00 AM) be shipped at the promised sale price? And if so, how long will this take, now that so many have been ordered? Is it unrealistic to think that I'll get these by Christmas?

Gosh I missed the sale of those complete series box sets. I've been waiting to get a good deal and this gotta be the best one. Do you guys think they will ever be back? I don't mind them being back-ordered as long as DD honors the price.

The wording from the Deep Discount post indicates they've been removed until they determine if additional orders can be filled. So it seems possible they may reappear, though it's impossible to know for sure.

Why should they limit their ability to make money? That is what they are in business for.

Just ordered Porky's Ultimate Edition & Green Acres Season 3. Thanks for taking MORE of my money Deep Discount!!!

So they don't piss off their regular customers and potential new customers like myself.

i totally agree and hope the DD comes through for us this time after all the support we had given them all these years.....

i too am keeping my fingers cross

Hey DDD: Is it a mistake that Bob Newhart, Season 2 is omitted from the sale? Season 1, 3, & 4 are included, so it just seems odd...

boooo no more simpsons seasons past season 6 oh well, at least that removes the temptation for me...

D'oh!

how come x-files mythology vol 1 & 2 is not in the sale?

It doesnt pay to wait on these sales, if they are a good deal jump on them. Similar to the buy.com sale a few weeks ago when they raised the prices 10-20% after the first couple days, this DD sale is now out of stock on some of the better deals of this sale. Sure once in a while a better deal on another site might come out a week later with better prices, but its not like you are getting a bad deal now when these are the lowest prices to date.
I got simpsons 9 and 10
Family Guy Vol. 4 and 5
and In Living Color season 3 and 4
All wishlist items

In my experience you would be lucky if they didn't ship one of the items, at full price mind you, and then fail to send the second. That is what happened to me and it was like pulling teeth to get them to acknowledge the needed to ship the second of the b1g1 items or give me hlaf of my money back.

That was my last b1g1 order on DD. Not worth the risk.

Almost got into that situation during the B1G1 free BD promotion... Shipped Black Book at $27 and no words on the other BD for a while. Fortunately, i got the 2nd BD for 0.00 like two weeks later. Of course, if things didn't work out on this order, my lost is not bad. However, considering the potential headache for X-files and Stargate, sigh, not worth it...

If One Of My X-files Sets Are Not Shipped I Will Raise Hell!

Both of The Addams Family Complete Series sets I ordered have shipped.
