Crap, I hope that isn't true. There were 2 orders where I used two codes. My orders haven't been touched, YET... But nothing has shipped yet, either...

So I still haven't got any of my Mr. Rebates groupons. I did get some cashback on B&N items that I purchased by going through Mr. Rebates though. So I guess you can get another 4% off.

This is starting to be more trouble than it was worth. Now along with my partial cancellation, they decided to retroactively charge me for shipping since the new total dropped below $25. And I still haven't received any of the credit back to the gift cards. Fun times.

I got cashback from Discover for four orders, but only received two of the gift cards. Good times.

Yea, me too, but were you/will you be charged for the missing Groupons?

You must be doing something wrong. I got most of my groupons and 8% cashback. Even received an extra $5 sign up bonus.

Well, I think I bought them after you so maybe their systems just haven't caught up yet? When did you buy them and when did you get them?

I got the $5 sign-up bonus too.

Pretty hard to do something wrong...

I've done a few orders a day since it started. Usually I get the new groupon within a few hours. However I gave up trying to order more on the same account, and start a new one with each purchase.

That might be the reason. I did the Mr. Rebates all on the same account since I did not have any problem getting Groupons through the touch site on that account.

The shipping confirmation emails are starting to pour in.

Only my Space 1999 has shipped so far... But it isn't showing as shipped in my order history...

I show charges for four groupons from the first day, when I was trying to work the multiple city angle. I didn't receive four, so I'm going to have to figure this out and dispute the ones that don't match up.

are they charges or just holds? not the same thing.

It is getting messy. I didn't do it on my first batch, but the last few orders I used a rebate debit card with a $1 on it rather than my CC.

They seem to be charges; is there something that would indicate a mere hold? There is a transaction date and a post date, as well as an approval code next to each one.

Usually a holding charge says "processing" instead of "completed". At least that's how BOA and Paypal do it.

Discover doesn't do holds. They are charges with a transaction date and a post date.

I can see all of my charges from 2/4, but nothing after that has posted yet. The thing that tipped me off to a possible problem, was the e-mail I received saying I had earned 20% cashback on (what would be) 5 Groupons; two in excess of what I actually purchased.

For me, I have received LESS groupon charges than GC's I received. I only show 3 c/c charges, plus I have two Visa debit cards I used once each (I'll verify those charges later) so that's 5. I have received 7 groupon GC's.

Only one of my orders (that i used 3 GCs on) is held up. Ones i placed with 2 are shipping.

I just bought 3 more GCs and placed 3 separate orders for the 3 items that are held up. They are all about $20 each so no biggie, just lose out on the 10% off order coupon i used. If for some reason the order does go through, ill return the 2nd set for physical GCs later.

My two orders from Friday (one with 2 GCs) haven't even shipped yet. to ship. B & N really do take forever - if I had placed my order with Amazon, it would have already arrived.

Two of the three movies I ordered went out today. The order used two groupons. It also shows the third movie shipping today, but nothing yet

My Friday orders shipped yesterday. I do agree they usually aren't as fast as Amazon but they were this time.

I think the orders on fatwallet and SD used a ton of groupons, because people on blu-ray.com (and myself) have had orders using two groupons are going out fine. I would assume that if you paid by phone for your order, it might be cancelled. I ran two groupons online with my order, and it seems fine.

It does, seem, however, my Forrest Gump BD might be delayed, it didn't ship out today (so far), and shows to ship in 1-2 weeks. Idk, as long as my groupons go through, I can wait.

Ordered A Star is Born, The Maltese Falcon, and The Treasure of the Sierra Madre for $60.48 w/3 codes.

Used an AMEX gift card for the $0.48 balance.

Edit: Forrest Gump was shipped, so all is well. They shipped it with DHL Smart Mail....which I've never had experience with them. So, here's hoping...
