Question about DDD shipping
I ordered some discs from DeepDiscountDVD.com and some of it was backordered. I got shipping notice for my Flight Of The Navigator. Then 5 days later I got shipping notice for another package of 2 dvds. I have now recieved the 2 discs that shipped after Flight of the Navigater. Should I be worried? Is it normal for stuff that shipped later arrive before the stuff that shipped beforehand?

It's usually common for them, but if you are really worried definitely call.

Look through the last 3 or 4 pages.

Lots of people share that experience - the Post Office is really weird with Media Mail, and I wouldn't be concerned. (And unless it's been a few weeks since the shipping notce, it would be a waste of time to call, since they'll just tell you to call back anyway.)

It's normal. It's been my experience that I receive packages of 2-3 dvds from them quicker than single disc shipments.

Case in point. Received some single dvds shipped on 7/6 already. Have yet to receive my package of 8 dvds that was shipped on 6/28

I'm the opposite. I get the single discs way faster than the multiple title shipments:

Same here. I received all my single dvds. The one big order that shipped on the 6/24 has yet to arrive. Ugh, media mail to Hawaii is a pain.

Received my 3 orders today too, funny thing is they had shipped on different days from DDD but they all arrived on the same day. I also received a box from Columbia House which took 4 weeks. Sounds like the USPS just waited until there were enough boxes to fill the barge to Hawaii and then they ship everything at once for media mail.




a little over 4 weeks later, but at least it showed up and in perfect condition. That's the last of my orders so I'm a satisfied customer.
