Question to the French users...CDISCOUNT.COM?
 
Has anyone shopped with CDISCOUNT? I placed an order with them and this is what I got:

"Dans le cas où un article vous parviendrait en mauvais état,
merci de le renvoyer au siège social dans son emballage d'origine,
accompagné de ce document."

and:

date d'envoi- ?!

I am sorry for asking you this but I have no idea if my order went through and what should I do now......

If you could give an idea what's going on here I WILL FOREVER OWN you!!

Thank you again for your assistance!!

If this is supposed to be an incentive for people to reply I predict your endeavor will be a miserable failure. :)

pro-bassoonist 12-10-02 09:59 PM

CODE FREE: THANK YOU!! I believe I get the point.

eXcentris:

no its not.......I am simply trying to figure something out and since i do not speak French I decided to ask.

What's wrong if I admit that I do not speak French and ask for help....In my book its better to ask for help as opposed to being sarcastic and pretending that you know what the above mentioned note means.

I am not sure I understand YOUR sarcasm.....but you're entitled to your opinion so.....THANK YOU FOR the PREDICTION!!

Uh....pro-bassoonist, I don't think that eXcentris wants to be

OWNED




If you would re-read your statement you would probably catch his drift.......

pro-bassoonist 12-11-02 09:21 AM

Ok, My bad!!

That's what happpens when you try to type when in fact you need to be working.....

Note taken!!

"I will owe you!

eXcentris 12-11-02 01:46 PM

pro-bassoonist, now you got it. :)

codefree's translation is right. And "date d'envoi" is shipping date.

thalion 12-11-02 06:11 PM

@pro-bassoonist,

what did they charge you for shipping? I was a bit discouraged by their statement that "Les livraisons à l'étranger ne sont pour l'instant pas assurées." (roughly: "international shipments are not ensured for the time being"). Some of their prices are not too bad, though :) ...

Lucas 12-11-02 06:30 PM

www.cdiscount.com no longer ship outside of France (and a few places including Corsica I think) since last year.

Last I looked.

pro-bassoonist 12-11-02 07:09 PM

Lucas....are you sure about this.....where did you see it?

When you go to shipping options there is an entire list of states.....

Thalion....I just placed my order last night...so I do not know yet....I will post if I get lucky and get my disc.....

thalion 12-11-02 07:24 PM

pro-bassoonist, to answer the first question: I put an item into the basket, go to checkout and get a form to fill out (French addresses only). On that page (http://www.cdiscount.com/basket2.asp?mscssid=sdgajhg) it says: "ATTENTION : Pas d'expéditions hors France Métropolitaine et Corse" which translates to what Lucas wrote. I don't even get to shipping options or the like ... have you ordered from them before?

pro-bassoonist 12-11-02 08:27 PM

No....2 days ago I did place an order...AND THERE IS AN OPTION as to where you wish the package to be shipped. I did pick USA but so far have not gotten any confirmation or anything like that.

I will wait a couple of days and if nothing happens then we'll see.

I so want to get LA FIDELITE (S.Marceau)...where can I get it? Amazon.fr and Cinestore.com are no-go so far!!

for what it's worth, cdiscount is quite possibly the worst etailer I've ever encountered. I placed a huge order with them over a year ago. They never shipped it, never answered my emails and charged my credit card immediately. I eventually got the money back but the whole experience was simply a nightmare.

Hendrik 12-12-02 03:01 AM

"...I so want to get LA FIDELITE (S.Marceau)..."

...La Fidélité is OOP, according to alapage...

As stated before. They do not ship outside France.
That does not mean it is the worth etailer. Got loads of cheap DVD thanks to them.
All you need is an address in France.

And BTW never, never, make a "huge" order on the net when you dunno the site.
Especially when shipping is for free.


CDiscount is also a DVD editor. So they buy the master of some titles and make their own DVD pressing (under the brand DVDY).
This is probabiy the case for this title and that's why they sell it for less than $5

pro-bassoonist 12-12-02 11:05 AM

there is a second edition that came out in December (Edition Aventi) and it is much cheaper.....not the Gaumont one....

I assumed that this was the one they offer......

o, well......this is the 5th time I am trying to get this movie and...........nothing!!!!!

eXcentris 12-12-02 09:53 PM

pro-bassoonist 12-12-02 10:59 PM

no no no no no no....THIS ONE I have to have in perfect condition....Marceau together with Ajani and E.Beart is on the top of my "excellent"- French- actors- list. So, I'd rather find the French disc.

Thank you for YOUR attempt to help me out! I appreciate your effort.

ps.
Ok now.....you all know about Bellucci....she's there too!!!!!

Lucas 12-13-02 02:36 PM

La Fidélité is OOP -but Cdiscount reprint their own DVDs it seems (this is why they limit export perhaps). You can find many many of these reprinted DVDs on Ebay in France at a very low price.

If you placed an order with Cdiscount you would know as you'd have went to a secure credit card page and paid -and received an immediate email.

pro-bassoonist 12-13-02 05:10 PM

Lucas...that's exactly what happened...i got an email and even a "facture" or somehting like that with the detailed info....I am not sure though they have shipped my dvd yet....
