Movietyme - problems??

[Snake-V2]

Has anyone here who uses Movietyme.com for their Blu-rays (particularly imports) noticed they seem to be slacking over their lately?

I put in two orders on October 1st and they only shipped out today - both items were in stock btw at the time of ordering. I did send them an email last night though asking WTF?

On top of that I had an order in 'pending cancellation' since September 28th which only got sorted today too - I wouldn't mind normally but they take the cash straight away.

Anyone else having problems or know what's up with them these days??

i ordered Underworld Evolution from them last Thursday, it hasn't shipped yet.

They're just slow in general - you get what you pay for.

When I ordered 300 off them I had it in 5 working days. I went back and ordered Aeon Flux, that took about 3 weeks.

If they weren't so cheap I wouldn't touch them with a 10 foot clown pole but you do get your blu-rays in good condition... eventually

this is not about movietyme but I am having a simlar problem with best buy. The best buy closest to where I live seems to try and do all they can to stop people from getting blu-ray movies. I am wondering if anyone has had this happening to them at other best buys. I go into this best buy of mine and see thing blocking the blu-ray sections so people can't see that they have blu-rays. When blu-ray first came out they had about two shelfs for blu-ray no floor display, but from hd-dvd they had two floor displays and a whole section of a row just for them. That has changed now. The latest thing this best buy has done to me is not have newly released movie and now a week later still don't have them. Does anyone else have a best buy that seems to not like blu-ray

Yeah, on top of moving the blu-rays to the back of the rack and HD-DVD fills the front, I usually have to go to Fry's to buy a newer movie. BB never has the one I'm looking for, but that may be that they're just all gone. When I ask they always say that they have it, and then find in the system that they're all gone. I'm in Sunnyvale, CA in the center of tech-head heaven so I can see how a good new Blu-Ray release might go quickly. Fry's on the other hand seems to stock incredible numbers of high-def content when they get it so they don't run out as fast. If you can't find it on the shelf at Fry's then look in the boxes under the shelves. I've found stuff in there that's sold out on the shelf.
