Ultimate Superman and Funcash
 
Didn't know which thread to add this to, the Ultimate Superman Thread or the Funcash bucks.

Anyway, Superman Ultimate Collector's Edition shows up as $44.98 when you use your funcash. Used my funcash to basically offset the shipping charges/taxes to basically get the set for just about this price.

Looks also like its best time to use funcash with boxsets, as a lot of these are showing up for a good price. Too bad I don't have any funcash left to spare.

Enjoy!

Thanks, ordered that and Long way Round for 34.98 shipped.

So what are you going to do with that extra copy of Superman Returns?:D

One of the best anime series of all time can be had for $31.97. The Fruits Basket box set is $44.98 in the FC cart. You can take another $20 off of that price with your FC, making it $24.98. Shipping is $6.99, so the final cost is $31.97. This is a great series that even non-anime fans should enjoy. Thanks for the heads-up, DVDGamer!

Average DVD Price
for this order, excluding sets: $3.55

You're Earning FunCash
what's FunCash? $84.00

... so i'd have to spend $60 on a crap load of DVDs, only about 4 of which i want to get one good deal on DVDs... i think i'm just gonna order 4 or 5 DVDs and call it a day, then just get Superman and Ran with the funcash, but great deals are out there if u already have the funcash (makes me wish i hadn't already ordered platoon, rain man, the killing, fargo, no man's land without triple fun cash)

junkreceiver 12-01-06 06:39 PM

I've already ordered most of the under $5 DVDs that interest me without the triple funcash offer. So I probably have to pass this offer. Well, maybe next time.

DarthVong 12-01-06 07:04 PM

Sweet!

I only had $15.00 in funcash, but at that price I bought it.

dsa_shea 12-01-06 10:30 PM

How do you get this deal to work? I'm going through my fun cash but it still shows up at a special price of 59.96 before any fun cash is applied.

EDIT: I got it to work. Thanks OP! Now here's hoping they ship it before Christmas. CH has been really slow the last month shipping stuff out.

grivet 12-02-06 08:20 AM

I'm not seeing this on the site at all now. Anyone else?

yeah it seems it is no longer on the site (there is a space where it used to be on the Superman Boutique page )

basaro 12-03-06 01:41 PM

Not even the placeholder is there now, what the hell happened? It was in my cart too, and now it's gone. :(

I preordered this through Columbia House, and my order is listed as "awaiting stock." Maybe they took it off the site until they get more back in stock.

lizard 12-04-06 08:39 AM

Wasn't Ultimate Superman recalled due to a production error? Thought I read something to that effect but I haven't been paying much attention. If so, Columbia House would pull the listing until they could get a new date for stock.

Yeah, Warner's first batch of sets had the old version of Sups 2 and one of the discs of Sups 1 was messed up or something to that effect, so they are issuing replacements for anyone who has a messed up set. I wasn't aware they were going to recall all the sets, but perhaps they have. I'll have to read more on the other thread. I wouldn't have cared if I got the messed up set, I have no problem getting the replacements from Warner. Oh well, hopefully it will be back soon.

According to Amazon.com:

• Customer notice: Warner Home Video has discovered that bonus content was inadvertently omitted from the Superman III Deluxe Edition contained within some of the 14-disc Superman Ultimate Collector's Edition gift boxes. Also, disc 1 of Superman: The Movie in the Superman Ultimate Collector's Edition was produced with Dolby Surround 5.1 but inadvertently did not include the original 1978 Dolby 2.0 stereo surround sound mix. Please note that these discs are still playable and not defective. If you need to replace your discs, please call 1-800-553-6937 and replacement discs will be made available at no cost to you. See full details

DarthVong 12-04-06 09:08 AM

My order still shows as pending in my order history, but I've already been charged for it. I'm fine if they are holding sending the orders out until they get the corrected sets from Warners.

basaro 12-04-06 09:14 AM

Yes, apparently retailers are doing a recall and waiting for new sets. CH is probably doing the same as you know how well they handle returns and such as this, so you know they don't want to deal with it!

I saw this posted in the main dvdtalk thread about this:
http://forum.dvdtalk.com/showpost.ph...&postcount=177

There's plenty of more info in that thread. It should be back at CH in a few weeks, hopefully before the end of the year, and hopefully funcash still works on it then because I'll have to use it all up anyway.

Subgeniusguy 12-04-06 10:40 AM

I'm no longer seeing my Superman Ultimate as a pre-order on my order history and they have not charged me. I have not yet received an e-mail but I assume it means they are cancelling my order.

drh4 12-04-06 11:38 AM

I just confirmed with a web support CSR that unless your Superman Ultimate has been shipped (which they can check), it will not be.

She didn't know about the recall, but said this happens when contract issues, etc. come into play, this is how they resolve them.

Did she say your order will be cancelled or just delayed?

$41.97 shipped, using $20 of FC.:up: Keep in mind that Costco will have this set for around $50 in another two weeks(a $25 off instant rebate sale).

OwlAtHome 12-04-06 02:58 PM

Well my original order and my fun cash order for Superman have both vanished.

DarthVong 12-04-06 09:27 PM

My order is still in Outstanding Funcash Pending status as of right now. I know I have had orders that shipped still say pending, but now I'm beginning to wonder if it's just a matter of time for it to disappear.

Subgeniusguy 12-04-06 11:02 PM

Kind of irritating. I passed on the good B&N and Buy.com deals for this and now they're unavailable. I haven't been able to find this set in a B&M.

djsmooth 12-04-06 11:26 PM

Have you checked Target and Costco? Those seem to be the B&Ms that have had stock. I saw some at Target this weekend (69.99).

Subgeniusguy 12-05-06 02:39 PM

Found 1 at Target today for 79.99 with several scratches on the front. If it had been pristine I might have bought it just to end my search. No costco in my town and I don't have a membership anyway. Checked Sams and they didn't have shit. Maybe I should hold out on it and wait until the fixed sets come out and its more widely available.

dsa_shea 12-06-06 05:57 PM

Mine also states pending after four days of having placed the order. I called CH yesterday (and after what seemed like an hour wait to talk to a CSR) was told that the order still seems to be going through but at the same time was told that the set had been removed from the system. The guy on the other end couldnt give me a definitive answer on if or when I would get the set but only that my order was still in the system and was being processed. I figure that it will more than likely get cancelled but if it doesn't that would be great. I went to Target today and found 1 copy of the Ultimate set in really good shape except for one small dent in the bottom right corner. I picked it up for 80+tax. If the CH order goes through I'll return my Target one and if not at least I have a set.

DarthVong 12-07-06 09:55 AM

My order placed on 12/1 is still in pending. I had placed another order the same day on another account for a different DVD and it too is still in pending status.

dsa_shea 12-07-06 12:55 PM

I wish they would let us know one way or the other what is going to happen.

DarthVong 12-08-06 09:15 AM

Well it happened. My order is no longer in my order history. My payment and Funcash have been refunded. CURSES!!!!

DisneyDVDFAN 12-08-06 10:03 AM

well no longeri n my pending funcash either ;( oh well ...

dsa_shea 12-08-06 04:19 PM

Mine is still pending. Maybe it will happen but probably not.

pipemann 12-09-06 09:14 AM

Mine still says "awaiting credit approval." But I'm assuming Columbia House does not have it, unless someone can tell me otherwise.

dsa_shea 12-09-06 09:23 AM

Our orders are still pending in the system and will probably stay that way for awhile. The very disgruntled CH employee that I just spoke with told me that they are waiting for more stock to come in so they can ship them to us. However, he could give me no idea on when (or in all reality if) this would happen. I'm not sure I believe him as he was a big asshat on the phone. I waited 50 minutes to speak to him and really got no resolution to either of my 2 major problems.

Legolas 12-09-06 01:49 PM

^ Are you really surprised? Just because it takes forever now to get ahold of a CH CSR, that doesn't mean that they're now all-of-a-sudden competent at their jobs.

Yeah it may be hard to get ahold of a CSR but they keep calling my house every single day for the past two weeks even if i say STOP... I don't need to sign up for anymore DVDS ;) LOL
next time they call i will see if i can get some answers to my missing orders ....
and see what happens...

the number that show up on caller id is 1 800 2622001 ...

OwlAtHome 12-09-06 08:09 PM

I prefer to assume that though my order has vanished that it may be fulfilled because the FC I used has not been restored (yet).
