I copied mine from my email and there was an extra space before the first number in the order number line....double check that and make sure there aren't any extra spaces.

Re: (DEAD) Star Trek TNG: Complete Series $69.99 at gohastings.com

I got mine about a week after I ordered it.. Came securely packaged. couldn't be happier.. Sorry to hear about other's frustration. This might have been my first gohastings order (i may have ordered some PVDs years back but that was too long ago for me to remember)- so I can't complain.

Here's hoping everybody gets their box in tip top shape for the holidays!!

Nay, I ordered late Saturday night, actually.

I'm sorry to say that little trick did not help.

I'll check my bank account again and see if the placeholder debit card debit has become permanent. Because I see the charge, I know they received the order. But now it is just a question of whether they follow up.

Well, I'm going to complain mightily if this doesn't go through. The squeaky wheel and all that. If they're OOS, then I should get the next one that's available. That's the way I see it.

I actually received another confirmation email that my order was shipped. Not sure why, but checked USPS.com and the Electronic Shipping Info Received was on there, so that's a good sign.

Good luck with that... Mine was ordered the first day, first round, and cancelled within hours. No email, no apology, no nothing. Haven't heard back from CS and I do not expect to. Even if they reply I expect the standard "we reserve the right to cancel any order for any reason" excuse.

I'd complain louder but I just don't care enough about this series to make the effort. I did not care much for this one when it originally aired. I only made it through the first few eps. of S2 before I gave up on it in disgust and the few eps. I saw after that did not make me see it any differently. I was planning to watch the entire run to see if my opinion changed. If it did, I'd keep it, if not I'd planned to sell it used for my cost.

The OOS situation is my opinion as well... if you get more you should fill those "cancelled" orders first which *should* have gone to BO status *NOT* be cancelled. I'll not bother with Hastings online again, it's just not worth the hassle.

Oh well, mine got cancelled today. Unlike people bitching and moaning here, I don't really care. Just saves me money.

Season 1 and 2 are the weakest seasons although if you didn't like the Borg one, you probably won't like the rest.. You've missed out on some great story lines.

Can you tell me if the green cases are three blocks taped together? Still can't figure out if I have a bootleg!

They're three blocks of green trays held together by clear tape, the clear tape being the spine to allow flipping thru them like a book.

I think mine shipped Monday? From Washington to NY....but I also noticed it was Priority Mail, so I feel that sped up the process.

The only way to tell if it's a bootleg is to put a disc in a computer DVD drive and see if it's region free. Bootleggers copy the box artwork, etc., so just because it looks legit doesn't mean it is. If it's region free then it's a bootleg

Why are we concerned about bootlegs again? Has anybody here gotten one?

dvdjunkie32 had asked the question about whether or not he had gotten a bootleg set. I have yet to see a single post from anyone verifying that they have received a set that was Region 1. After reading some reviews on Amazon it would appear that a lot of buyers got bootleg sets from questionable vendors. Not sure where gohastings stands in that regard. Why be concerned? Gee I don't know. I, for one, don't want to support pirates, terrorists, etc..

Mine is Region 1. I've never received anything bootleg from Hastings before either.
