Has this ever happened to anyone?
 
I used 802265 - b1g1 + 50% off all DVDs a few days ago and got Disturbia (bluray), Fracture for free, and got Saved! for 3.98 to get free shipping. Over the weekend Disturbia disappeared from the order. So now they are sending me both Saved! and Fracture for 4.22. Has this ever happened to anyone?

Many times..."Disturbia" will reappear and you'll be charged correctly for the rest of the order.

Disturbia may not appear, as it is now OOP... due to Dreamworks going exclusive to HD-DVD

larry47591 09-27-07 12:06 PM

Yeah the order went to complete and still no Disturbia. So I ordered it again this time with the b1g1 free shipping. I got Disturbia and 1408 2 disc. Of course Disturbia disappeared again and now 1408 is just showing up as free. I have been get columbia house for a year and nothing like this has ever happened. I will wait a few days then I might just buy it on hd-dvd. If it all works out, I will have got three disc for 4.22. Fracture, Saved!!, and 1408.

riotinmyskull 09-27-07 12:27 PM

like jon8282 said it's likely because it's OOP. i remember when CH carried the third man criterion but everyone knew they were OOP so people would order that along with their "free" selection and they'd end up getting their "free" selection without having to buy one at regular price.

sumdeus 09-27-07 04:06 PM

I missed the part where you said this was Blu-Ray. What others said about this being discontinued and only being charged for the other items is correct from my experience. Nice find!

riotinmyskull 09-27-07 04:40 PM

if anyone pulls the trigger on this and gets the same results as larry47591 please post here.

JoN8282 09-28-07 12:01 AM

Any update on this? I'm tempted to give it a go.

JoN8282 09-30-07 01:05 AM

disturbia has dropped off the order, it is now listing only deathproof on the order, and it is still listed as free, however it has not been shipped and is still in pending status...

Dexter Douglas 10-01-07 09:24 AM

I gave this a shot as well. It looks like the order has duped. My original order still shows Disturbia and 1408, but a second pending order just shows 1408 for free. Being a columbia house n00b, is this normal?

riotinmyskull 10-02-07 05:48 AM

i went ahead and gave this a try. disturbia has dropped off and 1408 is listed as being free.

larry47591 10-02-07 11:25 AM

I got a letter today that says Disturbia bluray is no longer available, but the rest of my order was processed. I got my first order yesterday. My second order was for 1408 collector's edition.

DisneyDVDFAN 10-02-07 12:41 PM

hey cool i got my serenity CE today in the mail invoiced at 0.00 ...

I had preordered with Disturbia Blu Ray which dropped off ...

Peep 10-02-07 08:21 PM

When did you order?

DisneyDVDFAN 10-02-07 08:42 PM

I ordered September 27th ...

JoN8282 10-03-07 02:53 PM

ordered 9/28
shipped free title 10/3

JoN8282 10-03-07 02:54 PM

anyone want to try it with another title? - these fall into the same category...

Selection #: 4733705 M:I:III
Selection #: 4733408 Dreamgirls
Selection #: 4733606 Sleepy Hollow

the narrator 10-03-07 04:04 PM

I did this with Dreamgirls about a month ago, and got 300 2 disc for $2.11

DisneyDVDFAN 10-03-07 04:23 PM

if that is the Sleepy Hollow Blu Ray title I actually got that from ch just a couple of days ago so it is still available to order ... so you can take that one off ;)

Peep 10-03-07 06:51 PM

Not same category at all. "Disturbia" was never made. Those titles are just out of print. CH may continue listing/selling them until they run out.

Be careful what you encourage people to do.

Brent L 10-03-07 06:53 PM

I can't believe I missed this one. If I had a BOGO/FS code I'd try it right now.

New Rambler 10-03-07 07:33 PM

You don't want a new release for a few bucks shipping? Use 801586.

riotinmyskull 10-03-07 07:34 PM

just use a b1g1 code and pay the $1.99 shipping for whatever dvd you want.

smashthesymbols 10-03-07 08:19 PM

I'll give it a shot. Just ordered it along with The Ruling Class Criterion. I'm tempted to try it on my other account too, but I don't want to push my luck.

Brent L 10-03-07 08:21 PM

Whoops, I totally missed that code. Thanks a lot.

disturbia was absolutely made and is OOP, i've seen it myself. and this entire discussion has been based on the fact that the Disturbia Blu-Ray title was OOP but still listed.

Peep 10-03-07 09:33 PM

Oops, my bad. Thought it was one of those titles that was cancelled before it was released.

JorgeC 10-04-07 10:10 AM

hmmmm, i didn't get $1.99 shipping, but here's the order I put in.

Dreamgirls Showstopper Edition - Blu-ray $29.96 Sale Price 04733408
Knocked Up (Unrated)Collector's Edition Free Sale Price 04795308
300 Special Edition Free Sale Price 04707105
Sleepy Hollow - Blu-ray $22.46 Sale Price 04733606

So, I should see the Dreamgirls and Sleepy Hollow put on backorder and eventually cancelled, but still get the Knocked Up and 300 for free? Since both titles will get cancelled, do they still count towards fullfilment of my membership?

riotinmyskull 10-04-07 10:32 AM

^ you might actually receive sleepy hollow...no one in this thread has confirmed that CH was out of those.

JorgeC 10-04-07 10:44 AM

Oops, you're right. Okay, i'lll update the thread once the order is processed.

Brent L 10-06-07 11:57 AM

I did this two times - once to get Hearts & Minds Criterion for $2.xx, and a second time to get The Red Shoes Criterion for $2.xx, so thanks for pointing out the code guys.

Also, just for the record, yes Disturbia did indeed totally disappear from both orders giving me the $2.xx price for both.

larry47591 10-06-07 12:25 PM

i used it twice. i got Fracture, Saved! for 4.22 and got 1408 collector's edition for free.

b2net 10-06-07 04:18 PM

I hope this isn't a YMMV. Would hate to have to pay 29.99 for a Blu-Ray disc of a movie I don't want for a player I don't have.

New Rambler 10-06-07 06:58 PM

Sometimes ya gotta roll the dice.

riotinmyskull 10-06-07 08:43 PM

i received a letter in the mail today from CH saying that they could not send me disturbia (BR) because they no longer carried the title. so i guess that pretty much makes it official.

Brent L 10-06-07 08:47 PM

I can't help but laugh at just how CH continues to totally confuse me. If they know that they don't have it, and can't get it, and are sending letters out stating as such, then why don't the morons take that title off of their site to keep people from ordering it?

The same thing goes for the Viva Pedro set. It's been months and months, it's an obvious price mistake, but they wont take the time to correct it.

I just don't get CH at all, but as long as it benefits all of us, that's fine by me. :lol:

Can anyone else confirm this works with Dreamgirls Blu-Ray as well?

By the way, my order the other day for Disturbia and The Ruling Class worked out fine. Disturbia dropped and I was charged $1.99. Pretty damn good for a Criterion.

dadaluholla 10-06-07 11:53 PM

Ok, I had to give this a shot....Just ordered Disturbia with Death Proof for free. We'll see how it goes.

JorgeC 10-07-07 04:26 PM

Disturbia Blu-ray dropped off and I'm getting Serenity CE (free) for 1.99 (shipping). Dreamgirls Blu-Ray dropped off, but they ARE shipping Sleepy Hollow Blu-Ray along with my Knocked Up CE (free) and 300 SE (free).
