My USPS tracking information alternates between this:

December 13, 2007 --- US Carrier notified to pick up package

and this:

December 13, 2007 --- PHOENIX AZ US Departure Scan
December 13, 2007 --- US Carrier notified to pick up package

I mean, I guess it's great to know that it left Phoenix last Thursday, but no updates since then? And why does that part disappear sometimes?

Well kiss my grits...

...it just showed up. I must say, the slip cover is really nice.

Looking forward to finally seeing Ultimatum tonight!

My set shipped that day or the next, and arrived today. In any event, in your case, shoot them an e-mail asking why your order from who knows when hasn't shipped yet, when new orders have arrived already. That should kick it into gear.
Apparently shipping on it got delayed and it didn't ship until the 14th. Saying I won't get it until the 21st now. Good thing I've got their stupid credit card. Think I could get the extra $5 off with the Amazon Visa special tacked on to my order?

The best thing I can say about this "set" is I got it for $49.95 ($16.65 ea). No box, sleeve, or cover. The spines and covers don't match, the fonts are different, and Bourne Ultimatum is a combo disc, the other two aren't. I was hoping to get something similar to the SD steelcase looking package. Instead we got 3 individual discs in 1 shrink wrapped package.

It's better to wait for these movies in a BOGO deal.

Yeah I thought it was a really simple package deal. When I ordered last week I got the extra 10% off and then also added a cheap filler DVD so I could apply the $5 coupon for using Amazon Visa.... came out to around $41-ish.

Not bad for the price, I just wish it was packaged like the SD set.

Uhh... duhh. Was it advertised any other way?

It was clearly sold as 3 separate movies. Identity and Supremacy were not Day and Date releases, hence not a Combo. Same can be said for Harry Potters, Oceans...

With the trilogy priced at 55% off MSRP, I think this was a pretty good deal actually!

yeah, the content of the discs is the only thing that matters, not how "pretty" they look on the shelf.

Ugh, I really hope Amazon's tracking system is messed up. Not only did the trilogy ship out a week after it's release but now on the day it's supposed to be delivered, it is FARTHER from my house than it was 3 days ago.

3 days ago it was actually in Ohio(where I live) but the status for it today says that it's in Pennsylvania.

Anyone else notice the latest folly on Amazon? You can't order the HD-DVD trilogy set anymore from Amazon (at least temporarily), so there are two Marketplace sellers selling this set for $145, as if the individual releases are OOP or something like that. Amusing to say the least.

Yup, looks like it is back in stock. Well, it was out of stock and jacked up temporarily.

Yeah, which looks like it's the only way I'm getting my trilogy pack now. I just got an email from Amazon saying my package is showing as delivered and was lost in the mail(which it's not according to the tracking) and that they aren't going to send me the movies. They're telling me they are "out of stock from their vendor" and they want to refund me the $50.

I'm not letting this shit fly since they sell the HD DVDs seperatly and are just being assholes for not fixing something they messed up on.

Has anyone ever had any problems like this with Amazon? I'm completely appalled by this.

^^^^ See above, this is back in stock. So I'd give them a call now if I were you to sort this out and get a new one shipped to you. Sorry to hear about the trouble.

Watched the first 2 movies thursday and friday. Played all the way through without a glitch


Great picture & audio & nice xtras.


Will watch part three later today


PS Compared to Doug Liman Greengrass really loves that "herky jerky" camera style and I must say Joan Allen looks pretty good in HD!
