Re: Sleeping Beauty + Pinocchio Blu-Ray: $26.98 at Amazon
I was starting to wonder if the delay was intentional to get people to just give up and cancel. I also got a delay email this morning. I'll stick it out since I'm in no rush and have nothing to lose.

got an email that my shipping is delayed as well. The price on my order page has never changed though. I'm not in any hurry, so I'll enjoy these when they come in.

Pinocchio was shipped on time and I only took advantage of the deal to double up on SB as a gift or trade bait, so when it comes, it comes.

My shipped estimate still says TODAY, so we'll see if it actually happens or not... I fully expect to be charged $36.98 and will have to call customer service...

I actually emailed them asking what was the reason they hadnt shipped. They advised me to cancel my order, replace with a new 1 day shipping and let them know when complete and they would refund the difference back to the $26.98

FWIW, I got in on the deal and Pinocchio got shipped right away while Sleeping Beauty was delayed. They gave me the discounted price but then changed it on my account page. I emailed them back and forth about 3 times and they finally changed the price and still managed to make an error.....now I got Pinocchio for $14.07 and Sleeping Beauty for....$3.33!!! Seems when they did the adjustment they still took the extra $10 off but they also put Sleeping Beauty in for the already discounted price of $12.91. Anyways I emailed them yesterday to ask why my package was still delayed when their site shows it in stock, they sent me a reply apologizing and the package was shipped today and my card has been charged the $3.33. So if you have a delay still it won't hurt to email and ask them.

I just checked my order and it is finally shipping soon! I was about to call customer service to put pressure on them to get it shipped. So far it looks like I'm getting charged the correct amount, but I paid for most of the order with a GC.

Same here. But the delay doesn't bother me too much. I'm more concerned about possibly being charged more than the $26.98 that is still showing up as the order's total price.

Emailed amazon's CS earlier and here was the response i got:
Thank you for writing to us at Amazon.com.
We are very sorry for the delay in completing your order. I have reviewed your account and can see that this experience has been far less than positive.
We strive for convenience and efficiency at Amazon.com, but in this instance we have fallen short of our goal. I'm truly sorry that your impression of doing business with Amazon.com has been so negative.
I've checked your order and see that there was an unexpected delay in obtaining the items. Because of the delay, the estimated shipping and delivery dates for your order were revised after you placed your order.
It's our policy to notify customers whenever such delays occur, and I'm sorry you weren't notified in this case.
However, we have now obtained this item and are currently preparing your order for shipment.
It looks like we'll be able to ship your package earlier than the revised date estimated on our website.
We'll send you an e-mail shortly to confirm the date of shipment. I expect that your order will arrive within 5 to 7 business days of the shipment date.
Because the order entered the shipping process I was unable to upgrade the shipping for this order. I do apologize for this.
If you haven't received a shipment confirmation by March 26, let us know by visiting the URL below:
Just checked my order summary and it says preparing to ship. Hopefully all goes well now. I recommend people to email amazon's CS and see if that helps.

Same thing here--ended up only being charged $3.33

Re: Sleeping Beauty + Pinocchio Blu-Ray: $26.98 at Amazon
I'm a bit irritated only because I ordered mine within 5 minutes of the OP posting the deal and still haven't had anything shipped yet and everyone is getting stuff left and right. In fact, mine was the second post in this thread that I made immediately after placing my order.
*edit to add* Just checked my account and they are "shipping soon", I'm keeping an eye on my bank account to make sure I dont get overcharged.

Got a bunch of delayed emails. Called them and was on the phone <4 minutes, they overnighted the BDs to me on them. Original charge. No problem.
