Amazon Pirate Shipments - Blu-ray Forum

AustinSTI · 05-22-2007, 02:21 PM

For me at least amazon hasn't shipped pirates. Anyone else in this boat? I'm kinda irked. Where's a good place that'll ship movies early if you pre-order?

MasterXeus · 05-22-2007, 02:37 PM

I just receive an email saying my order has been shipped. I'm using amazon free shipping, I don't know how they go about choosing with orders to ship first, I have an estimate arrival date of June 7th, but I know they ship by USPS, so it's more like 3 to 4 days.

DrinkMore · 05-22-2007, 02:42 PM

Not sure why, but there was a credit on my shipping - so I did standard shipping I beleive? Not the free or 2/1 day.

Mine shipped today and I will get it by Friday/Saturday according to the estimates. They are usualy right. I think there is a warehouse nearby somewhere.

Can't watch them - no BD player - but I will have them

If you use their Free Shipping, your order goes after those who pay for shipping.

Prime FTW!

Super Savers Shipping = You get screwed, even on items that have been around for a while and are as common as dirt.

As I said, I'm using Super Savers Shipping and my order has already been shipped according to an email I receive. I'm not in a rush to have my movies so I can wait.

theknub · 05-22-2007, 03:13 PM

i received an email today that mine shipped with free super saver

update: just checked and it went out last night and i should get it today

as a side note, here is how stupid ups is. amazon has a warehouse in sparks nevada (approx an hour and 15 mins from my house). they then went to sacramento (approx 2 1/2 hrs from sparks). now, from sac it will take another hour and a half at least to come to me in tahoe. makes sense right?

I have an amazon prime account and it shipped yesterday. Today the tracking states out for delivery. Id watch it tonight but Boston is in town to play the Yankees.

HDJK · 05-22-2007, 03:20 PM

No Prime for non-USA users, but I got an email today too that they shipped it. Can't wait

The Big Blue · 05-22-2007, 03:41 PM

Mine are on the way. Hooray!

It looks like they shipped out of Tulsa (I'm in OKC). Amazon has a warehouse in Tulsa? If so is that new? I don't think I've ever noticed anything shipped to me from Tulsa.

AustinSTI · 05-22-2007, 04:18 PM

Man WTF - still says shipping soon...no shipping notification or anything and I paid for STD shipping...

AustinSTI · 05-22-2007, 04:20 PM

I've seen people posting about having movies earlier than street date. Anyone recommend an etailer that'll ship before the street date?

http://www.dvdpacific.com/ has been known to ship early.

theknub · 05-22-2007, 05:47 PM

update: arrived at work and had my discs sitting on my desk

aaronwt · 05-22-2007, 05:54 PM

I have Amazon Prime. Mine have already been delivered today.

SeanMF · 05-22-2007, 05:56 PM

Well as I was about to post something as far as not having my ordered shipped from amazon, the email for it came as I was reading the postings on this topic. I also have super savings shipping. So I guess all I have to say is be patient...i'm sure their is a lot of pre-orders for these 2 movies.

mtmw1863 · 05-22-2007, 05:59 PM

They look fantastic.

LoL! I just read this...checked my email and got the notification that my order shipped.

Shipped via USPS (estimated arrival date: 26-May-2007)

AlaskaDon · 05-22-2007, 06:54 PM

Mine shipped yesterday using standard shipping. The free shipping option takes way too long to get stuff up here. I think it comes by wagon train or something. Standard shipping only costs a couple bucks extra and I usually have my stuff on Friday of release week.
