Amazon - reliable?

Does anyone ever get DVDs early from Amazon? What about next day? Is it ever REALLY delayed?

Are there any sites to get DVDs earlier than normal?

This year I have been receiving all of my pre-orders within 1-2 days of their release dates. They used to arrive only 3-4 days after the release.

This week my Thirteen Days arrived on Tuesday and Die Hard Ultimate on Wednesday

Why do it then? Is it not easier just to go buy the titles at WalMart or BestBuy?

Also, aren't there sites where people receive titles early?

1) I get them cheaper
2) No sales tax
3) no lines
4) no wasted gas

Lower Prices is the only reason to buy online. I dont mind waiting to save a buck or two.. Amazon orders show up early half the time, late the other half. No guarentees with any online store for early arrival...
