I just got a package today from Whatshotnow.com with Britney Spears, Eminem CDs, and The Crow 2 DVD that I ordered a long time ago. Please don't tease me on these items. I was just getting rid of my Hot$.

Also, on the shipping label it says "Whatshotnot.com" in the return address. I swear. I thought it was a joke from somebody else before I opened it. I'll scan & post a pic of it when I get back home from work.

Either the boys working there finally realize how much they're company ain't too hot, or WHN processes orders paid with $HOT from their whatshotnot warehouse. That explains the darn long shipping.

For real. Pic is not altered

Heh, they even bolded the N. That package will be worth something 10 years down the road. You're lucky http://talk.dvdtalk.com/ubb/smile.gif

LoL

How long is "long ago"??

I'm still waiting on a DVD from early November. I wonder if they'll make it to the 1yr. anniversary of my order? http://talk.dvdtalk.com/ubb/wink.gif

Looks like I placed this order February 18, 2000. I still have another order they haven't sent yet

I got a South Park clock yesterday.

Do I hold the record? Waiting for a 26 Oct order.

Hey helmutt...don't give up hope. I just got the Southpark set I ordered Nov 11. I'm beginning to believe in miracles http://talk.dvdtalk.com/ubb/wink.gif

My DVD List

haha i talke to a CSR. After I asked to talk to the manager, she asked why, and I said because I was hoping to eentually get my order and she said under her breath "well, good luck!" in a condescending way. after that im seriously thinking of going to small claims court to get the value of my movies, i mean they do charge twice MSRP so i should be able to get a nice return

I got 2 Dreamcast controllers today I ordered December 30th... Wow! Only 7 months...

Actually I have a whatshotnow order from October 10 that I never received, and I assume I never will. But I did get 2 Fight Club posters today. The best thing I got from Whatshotnow was when I ordered a Mission to Mars poster with hot dollars and got a MI:2 poster. I can't complain about free stuff, and especially when its better than what I ordered

------------------
I can't believe I ate the whole thing

Sent them an email threatening to sue (cause noone would answer the phones) and they sent me back a quite long appology and asked me not to do it, since they will mail my items tomorrow.

Personally, I think this is ********. But I really will take them to court. Im sick of them.

I wouldn't hold your breathe.

matta, you want to sue for merchandise that you never paid for? You're going to get real far with that suit!

Here's what I did to get 2 free movies. I called up 3 weeks ago and was extremely polite. I wanted to get something. I was owed Yellow Submarine and Austin Powers 2 from an order in which I only received Thunderball. The young lady I spoked to checked to see if the two movies were in and they were. I never really wanted either of them so I NICELY asked if I could exchange them for something of equal value that was also in stock. She said she would check to see if they were in stock. Today I received Good Morning Vietnam & Fast Times At Ridgemont High. If you call do not jump down the person's throat even if you are right. They will do their best to help you. If you get somebody who is not helpful call back another time. www.dvdtracker.com/~dvdboy.asp

Actually, i made sure i put in about $0.25 into each order just incase this happened. they took the money out of my account months and months ago.

Also, went to see a buddy of mine who is a lawyer, said he'd take the case especially since we now have them on fraud. our suit claimes triple damages on their prices on all the 12 DVDs I orders, so it ends up being $1580 (some other non DVD items included). he said it should be open and shut. file next monday, ill keep the board posted.

I'm still waiting on one from January 11. I don't even know why they list an email for customer service because I have inquired about my dvd to their address at least 20 times and I have received no reply. I tried calling them on their 800# and I receive a recording telling me that I can't use that # from my area. When they accidently sent me two copies of one of my awhile back, they didn't hesitate sending me letters and emailing me about mailing back the extra copy. I should have ransomed it!

does anyone else get this? call WHN and get no one answering the phone? what a joke. no matter what time of the day... noone picks up.

also, looked at that image you have up there and there seems to be some editing done to it. now i dont know if you cropped it or something, but it was definately altered.

I called 1-888-500-7776 five minutes ago. I was on hold for 5 seconds. I told the CSR I ordered The Mummy back in January and that I never received it and it was no longer listed on the website. She asked if I would like something else. I got A Fish Called Wanda as a replacement. Remember be as nice as possible. www.dvdtracker.com/~dvdboy.asp

ok, see they tell you they're sending it, but really they arent. ive been told that atleast 15 times since march, and nothing.

I got Fast Times at Ridgemont High and Good Morning Vietnam a fews days ago that replaced Yellow Submarine and Austin Powers 2 that was ordered in January. Maybe I got the only reliable person over there.

I got a James Bond poster i ordered in January. Mine says whatshotnot.com too

"I WANT MY TWO DOLLARS!!!" -- Better Off Dead

My ever Increasing DVD list
My massive ADULT DVDS!!!
12 INCHES of LOOOOOOOVE!!!

Traded in my 2 free Dreamcast controllers for $65 store credit to Babbages http://talk.dvdtalk.com/ubb/wink.gif

After about 5 months of talking, documenting CSR names and conversations, I finally got my order; at least most of it.

Guys if you want it, your going to have to write down names, what the CSR's say, and the dates the conversations occurred. Luckily for me they had charged my CC for a small purchase amount, so they didn't have much of a leg to stand on.

You have to get the attention of the Supervisor, I fell that is what I did.

I received the following titles: Yellow Sub., Taxi Driver, Thunderball, For Your Eyes Only, and Goldeneye.

Sound familiar? Ordered a bunch of DVDs last November, then waited...and waited. I called them last week, and the CSR said she'd call me back. She didn't. I called again and was told the same thing by another CSR. This time, she did get back to me - problem was, it wasn't an order I placed! Third phone call, and the CSR said they can no longer track orders by the order numbers on their site, and asked if I had my order confirmation - from 9 months ago!!!! I gave her one, and was told I'd be contacted. I wasn't. Do you think they feel any remorse?

My Collection

[This message has been edited by Meatpants (edited August 14, 2000).]

Ordered 7 DVDs in January. Eventually got 2 of them in May. Then, in June, I called a CSR and she told me they no longer offered some of my remaining 5 (the Bloody X-mas Pack) and the others were out of stock. She said I could pick 5 other titles, so I asked what was in stock. It took a while, but she eventually found a few titles, including Scream and The Crow. I said send me 3 copies of Scream and 2 of The Crow. Of the available titles they had the highest MSRPs, so I figured I'd sell them on half.com. Of course, nothing happened. The summer went by. I read posts here about people calling and reordering over and over, and I just figured I wouldn't waste my time. I forgot about it.

But, HOLY CRAP, today I got 3 copies of Scream and a form saying my 2 copies of The Crow were still on backorder!!! They even threw in 3 free packages of breath mints. It's been 8 months since I ordered, but it sure is a pleasant surprise when free DVDs (that you never thought you'd see) actually show up.

My suggestion to those still waiting: Talk to a CSR to make sure your order is for things still in stock (if not, change it). Then forget about it. Some day they'll come through.

matta, read the terms, there is a part that says the most you can earn in 50 points a day. apparently this was there the whole time. when i was calling them all the time back around january looking for my stuff and asked if i would really get it one csr told me i might not and directed me to that part of the terms.
