Free Shipping over $75 this week (currently works on boxsets)
Looks like there is free shipping on orders over $75 this week. I just tried it with 3 boxsets, and it did not charge shipping. If you were to combine that with a B1G1 offer, you might be able to get a nice order together.

Thanks, Copper Blue
Your code worked for me and I ended up ordering 4 TV box sets and getting 3 movies free with free shipping. Total $80, savings of $118, according to them.

If you were to use a offer code such as 805798 (b1g1 + 60% off), then yes you would be able to get a free dvd when purchasing American Dreams. Sets that cost less than $20 rarely ever work with a B1G1 unlimited code.

Yup, I just wanted to make sure he was aware of the variation in the B1G1 offers for future reference.
I think I'm going to take advantage of this to pre-order Dexter Season 2 (and maybe Pushing Daisies), but I'm holding out in hopes that It's Always Sunny In Philadephia Season 3 also becomes available before the 6th.

Backorder
Uh-oh. Entire order, that yesterday was showing "Processing" now says "Backorder". I'm guessing that's code for you're not getting your order as submitted, because there's no possible way all of the selections I ordered could be backordered.
Also, I used PayPal's new plugin that generates cc numbers for one time use, and it went through, and the money for the order has already been taken out of my account. But I think that was done during the authroization phase when the order was first submitted, so I don't think in this case they are able to go back and "re-rate" the order "properly" as they have done to other people when they catch on to these promo combo sale deals. because any other amount is not going to be accepted by the one time use CC number.
Have any of the rest of you gotten "Backorder" for your set orders?

I used a one time use VCC which is supposed to work through Paypal to create a new account and have both my actual order pending and some other order, at a higher charge, that has nothing to do with me pending... and my paypal account is down to $0.00 because of it! If Paypal were to try and take money out of my bank, I'd become overdrawn. What's going on?
Can anyone help me?

The only way I've been able to use a virtual CC with CH is to set one up for a time/dollar limit to be used multiple times at a specific vendor. I then have to put double the amount of the purchase on the card (at a minimum) to make sure the charge goes through without incident.
As I've only had this problem with opening a new account I don't know if they'll cancel your order(s) or simply ask for alternate payment. With opening a new account they simply tell you to apply again with a new CC #.

I've emailed them this morning and am awaiting a response.

The order was placed on 6/30, using a B1G1 code, and the free shipping over $75.

The Paypal order charges show a 1-800 number. Does anyone know if I called, if it would connect me to customer service?
I can't find a number on their website and their e-mail form seems to say it's on for people in Canada.
