Kiki's Delivery Service Insert?

OK, so I figured that since Castle in the Sky and Spirited Away had inserts that Kiki's Delivery Service would as well... apparently Best Buy doesn't see it that way as I just got back from exchanging my sans-insert Kiki for another one... with no insert! Am I just hitting a Best Buy that got a bad batch or are there no inserts in Kiki? Thanks guys.

The one I bought at Wal-Mart came with both an insert & the $2.00 off coupon.

I don't have my disc in front of me. So I just have to reply to your question from memory.

I am pretty sure that all three of the movies had inserts (including Kiki's). You must have just got a defective copy.

Hope that helps

My copy from Best Buy had an insert. Whenever I return an opened DVD for another one, they always break the seal before handing it over to me. I would advise checking your next copy at the customer service desk for the insert to save you another return trip.

So I went to a different Best Buy this time and opened it while at customer service. No insert. I'm done trapesing around and am getting kinda pissed... who do I contact at disney to have them send me an insert?

Let it be known: The Portland, OR area Best Buys have Kiki's Delivery Service DVDs with no inserts.

Why do you want an insert? Inserts are stupid. I never look at mine.

By the way, I have a Kiki's Delivery Service insert. It's not that special and certainly not worth all the trouble you're going through. I don't mean for this to sound like a flame. I just don't understand why you'd go through so much trouble.

Some people buy DVDs and some people are collectors of DVDs. Collectors are a fussier breed of people and expect items within thier collection to be complete and in perfect condition. As a collector, I would also go through the trouble to ensure that the DVD I bought had everything that it was supposed to have.

Different strokes, eh?

Why not send yours to Achilles? That way you can get rid of your stupid insert and the person who really wants one can get one?

As has been stated by others, I am a collector. I expect that my DVDs have everything that I am paying for and even go to the trouble of checking the keepcase to make sure it's not overly warped from the shrinkwrapping heat. Anal? Yes. Unheard of? No.

Just so you know that you're not the only one... Mine came without the insert too. Came with the coupon but no insert. Oh well.

Achilles, you can call Buena Vista customer service 1-888-877-2843 and complain about the missing insert. They will mail one to you
