Duality

every box set at my local Best Buy. I had to go through four boxes to find one that had discs 2 and 4 loose but not scratched! This was very frustrating. At first I thought the stock boys were to blame, but as each box I opened only had discs 2 and four loose from their hubs I started to wonder what happened at WAMO? If you haven't purchased the set yet, be aware that shaking the boxes didn't tell me anything. Each was "quiet" even though the discs inside were off the hubs.

Anyone else have a similar problem?

I had the same problem with Angel Season 2. The clerk and I pulled discs from 3-4 sets until we could complete one that was not scratched.

I'm getting my Smallville set from CH. I hope everything goes ok.

What a bummer! Well I wish you luck with Smallville S2.

Oh, man. Angel: Season Two... That was the one where I got something like 4 off their hub. Only the first disc seemed to be affected, so I returned it. On Smallville: Season 2, only disc 4 seemed to be off it's hub (and I shook it too and it was quiet). Didn't look to have any damage, but we'll see how it turns out. I'm watching the set now (well, not right now, as I have work in an hour, but this week).

My copy of Smallville came with 1 disc loose. My season one came with a loose disc and the disc was so scratched up it would skip when it played. They need to come up with a better way to package these discs.

My season 1 set had a loose disc in it, fortunately it wasn't scratched up. I'll be sure to check my season 2 when I get it. Thanks for the heads up!

I lucked out this time. My Season 2 set from amazon had all the disks firmly in place. And it had an insert!

Mr. Cinema

Why can't these studios get a case that holds the dvds? Wouldn't coming up with the packaging be one of the easiest things to do when making a dvd?

Yeah, I bought my set at Target and my set had 2 discs loose. Luckly neither of these discs were scratched in anyway. Yeah, the shake test didn't help either, which in retrospec is a good thing since if I had heard something, the discs would probably be scratched up.

I'm not too disappointed tho, good season. Can't wait for the 3rd and 4th.

Bought mine at Circuit City and discs 2 and 4 were loose, but oddly enough, they weren't scratched at all. However, discs 1 and 3 had scratches.

Took it back and exchanged, got a set with no loose discs, but discs 1 and 3 have scratches again (worse this time, actually).

Will probably give up and accept it as long as it plays ok. Tired of making lots of trips to stores to buy a single boxed set.

I had the same problem with gilmore girsl season 1 and smallville seaosn 1, not to mention smallville season 2... i think it may be the cases that Warner used, but that wouldn't suck becuase I like the Warner Sets better than the Digi-packs or slim cases that fox's uses.

Disc 2 and 4 loose on both sets I checked at Best Buy... the second set had some really minor scratches (not enough to affect playability), so I am not going to worry about it.

lwhy?

I had two discs loose on my S2 set. My Gilmore Girls set had two loose also. Why can't everyone make their sets like the Alias and Sports Night set? That is about the best packaging on a tv set imo.

Just bought mine today and every disc was firmly in place.

I ordered mine from Amazon and everything is firmly in place. I'm sure this problem exists, but by looking at the packaging, I don't even know how it is possible for the DVD to be loose with everything so tightly packed together.

I've never had a problem with sets that come in ThinPaks. That's my preferred packaging.

I got my copy today at Best Buy. Disc four was loose, moving around and scratched. Disc two was loose, but still remained on it's hub, and not scratched. All the other discs were firmly in place. And thankfully, I did get a booklet. (I was a bit worried about this because I've used my Season One booklet countless times)

critterdvd

I have no idea why, but for some reason I really don't like Buena Vista's TV-show-on-DVd packaging

Erik68

Got mine from Amazon as well and all discs were firmly in place.

Amel

Just opened mine today. Everything was fine. I had even knocked it off a shelf that sits about 3 feet off the floor the other night.

I've only had loose discs once. It was one of the earlier Buffy the Vampire Slayer sets. When I opened it almost all of them were loose. They all played fine. No scrathces.

Mine are in the mail and I want them BAD. Now, I am kind of worried that they are going to show up in sorry shape and then I am going to have to return them and wait another week for it to show. **Crosses fingers**

greendaynfg

Got mine from BB and discs 3 and 5 were loose...

I remember this happening with Season 1 too.

TruGator

I got season 2 smallville and 1 disc (disk 4 maybe?) was loose but there were no scratches on it.

leeta

I received Smallville Season 2 from Amazon a couple of days ago... all discs firmly in place...

leeta

I do remember that when I got Smallville Season 1 from Wal-mart last year, I had to return it because disc 5 (I think) was loose and scratched and it skipped when played.
