I've had nothing but great experiences with Deep Discount DVD so I'm rather excited for their new site. If their book prices are as competitive as their DVD prices I'll be in heaven.

About frickin' time. I've been holding off buying books for the last month until I can see what DDD's prices will be.

But do I read that right -- it'll be two days before Deep Discount will be up and running?

I'd imagine the site itself will be up and running and taking orders within a few hours. As far as I can tell it will just take them at least two days to transfer all of your order status and order history information from their previous site.

That's what I got out of it, at least, though I could be completely wrong.

Very good news. I really hope their book prices are good.

They should do a big sale to celebrate the new site.

[Dorfman] Oh boy, this is gonna be great! [/Dorfman]

The message on their site now says they'll be up and running by 9:00 PM (CST I presume).

I, too, have been waiting on buying quite a few books until the site change came about.

This is going to be a good time...

Site's up and running.

I like the water at the top, it's soothing.

We have to wait until Friday to see the new site?

Um, no. Just go to deepdiscount.com - it's already live.

My wishlist is empty. :(

Hey Guys, welcome to our new site.

Sailor Moon: We'll have the wishlists up in in a few hours. We're in the process of getting everything transferred.

Dave

Cool, thanks for the reply. The site looks nice.

New site looks cool. I'll have to take some time to look around before I give it a test run with an order :)

Thanks Guys -- I'm looking forward to your feedback


Dave

I got the site to load once, but I didn't see a search bar. I hit reload and it started redirecting from Deepdiscount.com to DeepdiscountDVD.com until Firefox killed the connection.

some of the DNS changes take a while. they should all be completed shortly

Wonder how much trouble you will have with the mods trying to get your screen name changed -wink-

The new site isn't coming up for me. I guess it'll be a little while before it's up and running.

It's running for me now, but the search bar still isn't showing up in Firefox.

I'm liking the new site, and the prices of books (from the very few I've looked at so far) seem to be pretty competitive. I made an order for a few DVDs, here's hoping it doesn't get lost in the shuffle.

Dave, I know it's kind of a small thing but I sorta miss the "Hello Tom" that you had with the old site.

When I try to go to the site it redirects me and takes me straight to DeepDiscountDVD.com, and has the big long message.

Thus far, everything is working very well for me. Sans the search engine, however, but considering the new site is less than a few hours old... I'd say it's doing rather swimmingly.

Can't wait to start ordering...

Could you let me know what problem you're having with the search engine? I'm in Firefox and it's working fine for me.

thanks

Dave

I've cleared cookies, caches, retarted IE, FireFox, and Opera, and it still redirects me. Oh well.

I'm using FireFox and have not had any problems with the search either.

We've been working with the hosting company and Network Solutions --- they're saying that some of the DNS changes may not take effect until after midnight EST. There will also be some delay until all changes completely propagate. Thanks for your patience

DDD Dave,

It would be great if, during a sale like the Universal one going on, you had the option like we used to to see all the sale titles listed on one page instead of clicking through 10 pages. Speaking of which, can you tell us when the sale ends?

Good job!

I keep getting kicked to a LearningSearch screen whenever I do a search. Hopefully that is just related to the DNS changes.

Thanks for the feedback. We'll work on getting that back up right away.

The Universal and Disney sales go through 2/28.

Dave

Stoic...I'll investigate your issue.

I noticed you mentioned that the Wish Lists will be carried over. When I logged in, my wish list was empty. Is it just a change over issue?

Yes, it will take a few more hours for all of the wishlists to be completely carried over.

Hi Dave,

First off, thank you for posting here, as it's much appreciated.

Secondly, now that the sites have merged, is there a plan for you guys to start selling Deep Discount gift certificates in the (near) future? They would make great gifts.

Thanks!

I'm having the same issue as Stoic. I'm on a Mac, and I use Camino.

Any chance of a Deep Discount branded credit card like Amazon and Borders have? I'm envisioning something with points that accrue and get redeemed for gift certificates.

Upon logging into my account, it shows an incorrect billing/shipping address for me. It seems to allow me to make alterations to my billing address, but not my shipping address. Do you intend to not allow customers to ship to addresses other than their billing address? And since the shipping address is wrong, how do I change it (besides opening another account)?

I believe when you want to make changes to your shipping address -- you must also update your billing/payment method.

Site is coming together great. I had some issues with the search earlier but things seem fine now.
