I ordered the Watchmen 2-disc directors cut on the day it came out (out of stock right away for that one) and it was put on backorder. Today I got a cancellation notice, stating that it has been discontinued.
The paranoid in me thinks they just don't want to fill all the orders they took with the first week on sale price, then another 25% off on top of that. This is the first negative experience I have had with Deep Discount's sale.

I seem to recall that any backorder items I’d ordered from them in the past was eventually canceled due to not being able to get it in stock. Granted, it was usually somewhere between a month or two after the order was placed that this would happen. I wonder if Deep Discount is planning to do something like this to avoid filling all these orders.

finally got my order, like I thought CDN customs got their grubby little hands on it and a bit too enthusiastic with opening my package and cut into one of my dvd cases while they were at it, just so they could charge me.
Worth a shot to give CS an email and see if they will replace it? its not that bad but it looks bad.

Has anyone started receiving any type of confirmation on BSG Blu that was backordered? Going on 3+ weeks now. That's a pretty serious lag in back orders. The above comments about them cancelling back orders has gotten me concerned.
When I called them yesterday, I wasn't as much concerned about when it was going to ship but rather IF it was going to ship. The woman on the other end wasn't to how should I say, pleased with my call. I'm betting they've received a lot regarding this box set.

Never doing business with these fuckers again. Ordered 8 DVDs a month ago. Never received the package. Finally they said they would resend them, and they would do it with expedited shipping... I received 4 of the DVDs, the other 4 were backordered. Okay, well at least when those come in they'll send them expedited too right? Nope. They send the other 3 DVDs through media mail again. Fucking morons. So the dates they said they would be here have all gone by without them arriving and they wont do shit about it. Only ordering from Amazon from now on. Deep Discount is a horrible company.

Is anyone still waiting on Mysterious Cities of Gold - The Complete Series? It seemed like a popular item that many mentioned when the sale was going on. I ordered pretty early in the sale, but its been on backorder since then. Still waiting on that and the aptly titled The Unseen...

I placed my order on 8/1. The first part was charged on my credit card. I received a call on the 13 or 14 asking to verify my address (because the purchase was more than $200). I received the first part of the order on the 18th; then the other part on the 19th. Had no problems. Here's what I ordered:
Part 1
-24 Redemption
-24 S7
-Lethal Weapon 4 Movie Collection
-Flintstones Movie Franchise Collection
-Pirates of the Caribbean Trilogy (blu-ray)
-Elvis 68 Comeback Special, Sp.Ed. (even without the discount, this was $13 less than Amazon)
Part 2
-X-Men Trilogy (blu-ray)
-The Godfather Trilogy (blu-ray)
-Mission Impossible Collection (blu-ray)
Granted, all of them are 'catalog' titles, but the only ones that most of the time showed as OOS were the ones in Part 2.
I'll be waiting for the next sale, hopefully there'll be some Disney titles I can get. But overall, very satisfied with the process.

Same here. I ordered at almost the time they made it available. At least I don't have to worry about them canceling my order.

I ordered at virtually the same time/date as you did. I guess they're finally fulfilling the orders. I suppose if I had ordered at 12:00:01 AM @ 7/28 I may have received my set a little sooner.

I just received an e-mail my BSG set is shipping. I didn't order until 8/1, so it sounds like they got a bunch in an should be fulfilling everyone's orders.

Are we talking Blu here? If true, we can only hope. And if they're not, I'm going to have some words with DD. I ordered mine on the 28th, quite a bit before.... Congrats on the shipping!

Just got the shipping email for the BD-BSG set. Sweet. I know little about this show so if it sucks I'm coming after all of you. ;-)
