Though I did have two of the same sets (one was an exchange) that were ordered from DVDPlanet and each were essentially destroyed upon arrival - amaray cases crushed, discs and plastic bouncing around. Ship packaging looked perfectly fine, so I wonder what the general practice is over at their warehouses?
About half of my packages from DD have been sent in envelopes. Actually, the damaged 2-Disc DVD set was actually sent in a box. I prefer the envelopes, actually, since I think the bubble wrap inside the envie protects the DVD better than the box.

I'm in the same boat. I only placed one order and received the shipping e-mail on 6/18. As of yet, no delivery. Stuff from DD usually takes 7-10 calendar days to reach me, but like many this sale I'm waiting longer on the free shipping.

Never posted my meager order, but here it is, belatedly.

I know it probably has to do with proximity, but my second order (shipped June 26) showed up on Monday in a nice sturdy box. Not a padded envelope, not mangled in the mail. My first order-ironically-started showing up yesterday. Two BD's, again in a box. Maybe I'm lucky.

I really can't understand why some people order from DDD, year after year, only to complain when there is a hitch. There are sometimes shipping issues with all companies as well as with the USPS and instant gratification is not to be expected.

Over the years the one constant about this company is that they make things right if or when there is a problem.

Personally, I think some of you like to have something to complain about but that's just my opinion!

I really can't understand why some people complain about other people complaining.

Yeah, I ordered Mishima and Be Kind Rewind in one order, Patriotism in another, and Playtime in another - they shipped on the 26th and arrived in PA on July 1st in 3 separate sturdy boxes, absolutely no problems with the digipaks, and way quicker than I expected. Thanks DD!

its like christmas over. 3 days in a row with goodies!
today , got 1 dvd shipped june 28 (back ordered from 1st BIG order june17th
and also 3 dvd's from 2nd order (also shipped the 28th)

for me, it seems that dvd's sent by themselves were in the sturdy single boxes.
Box sets, or multi dvd sets were shipped in boxes (Ed wood collection, saw trilogy)
orders of 4 titles or more, were sent in boxes.
2-3 discs mailed at a time seem to be what was sent in those bubble envelopes; for me anyway.

p.s. just realized that i forgot to order Halloween blu-ray. thought i did.

So, for the first time in at least 5 years, I did not get anything at this sale. The BDs I wanted (Superbad, Ratatouille, etc) were priced too high, even after the discount.

Well the 7/2 delivery window for my 18th order came and went and still no sign of them. Makes me wonder when the rest will get here if this one can't find it's way home.

I'm scared beacuse my shipment of the 18th has not arrived and it contains Criterion's "Six Moral Tales", which DDD has suddenly decided to no longer carry. If this shipment is lost I will be really upset.

my first box with 10 dvds came in today. All the disc seem to be fine, but I hear a rattling in my welcome to the nhk box, so I'm going to have to open it up.

..;.

Right so the disc was in one place and the hub was flying around. The disc is undamaged, but the hub is gone. Im not sure if I want to replace it or not. Maybe i'll see if I can find a few extra dvd cases to fix the problem.

No shipments arrived today. I'm going to give them until Monday before calling on these two orders.

Off-topic but does DD ever offer 20% sales that include books and CDs. I know they have in the past.

A select number of CDs and books are included in the sale. Unfortunately, they do a craptacular job of giving you a way to view precisely what ones are on sale.

Here is my Order Status for what I had left to come:

First Order: Shipped June 12th - Received July 5th
Second Order: Shipped June 12th - Received July 5th
Third Order: Shipped June 12th - Received July 5th
Third Order (Backordered part): Shipped June 24th
First Order (Backordered part): Shipped June 24th
Firth Order: Shipped: June 26th

The ones I received today were the first three large orders. Just the last 3 small shipments left which I hope I will get next week.

I didn't mind the wait. As long as I get them. I am in no rush. Like most people, I also have a backlog of unwatched stuff I got last sale (and probably the sale before that as well - LOL!).

Their prices are hard to beat but they do take forever to ship.

The items I ordered through buy.com for this 20% off sale seem to arrive much faster than those ordered directly from DD.

Looks like I'm in the same boat. 7/5 mail came and went and still nothing from the 6/18 order.
