the dvd express european store is now closed.

whats next?

I heard reel.com is on the ropes, and they may close shop soon. http://talk.dvdtalk.com/ubb/wink.gif

Correct me if I'm wrong, but reel.com closed a while ago and buy.com fulfilled all the outstanding orders. If you go to reel's site and try to order, you'll be taken to buy.com's checkout.

A warning for those who bought EVIL DEAD TRAP from EXPRESS.COM

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As usual with EXPRESS.COM recently, they are having a hard time keeping up with their bill paying (I smell a REEL.COM situation with them very soon).
Because they owe our company close to $8000.00 in unpaid invoices, I am no longer shipping to them until we get our money. Many of you have emailed me about your orders from EXPRESS.COM and all I can say is that you should maybe order from a different company from now on to get our product. I am sorry, but those who ordered EVIL DEAD TRAP (and my upcoming SIX DAYS IN ROSWELL next week), will not get them on time.

I am absolutely NOT going to ship them anything until I get paid for past invoices. Just yesterday another distributor ordered a bunch of EVIL DEAD TRAPs (causing the 1st pressing to become sold out, by the way) and when I called them to confirm it, they said the order came from EXPRESS.COM because I didn't ship them any and EXPRESS needed some.

So, instead of properly paying me the money they owe me and supporting a small company like Synapse, EXPRESS.COM is paying the "big boys" to keep A+ product/titles rolling in and not paying me.

My constant phone calls to EXPRESS have gone unanswered, so I suggest to you ALL to order our product from a company like www.dvdplanet.com or another favorite on-line site until EXPRESS shapes up.
