I only sporadically enter this thread, but whenever I do, it always seems to be at the wrong time.

Or is "the wrong time" the default mode for this thread?

Don't visit on the day Criterion announces an upcoming month's releases.

Why? Because of people complaining about "why wasn't x released instead of y?" or "this cover art sucks!" etc.

There’s more “wrong” times than “right” times.

On a side note. My Flash Sale orders have arrived! There was a minor panic. The Fellini set was said to be delivered but it wasn’t there. Turns out it was dropped off at a neighbors house. So all is well.

Or "great! Criterion is releasing ______. NOW it's time for them to release ________"

Did you order it separately or with other items? I'm just curious because I had mine just stuffed in a box with everything else I ordered; I was under the impression that it was shipping in its own unique packaging.

after all the issues with the Godzilla set I wish they would offer more standard packaging as well...

Separate. It was my first order. Got me the $50 certificate. It was sent in the box that they send to stores.

Watching the Eureka Mr Vampire disc and envisioning a future Criterion “Complete Mr Vampire” films set

Hoping to get Salo or 120 Days of Sodom on Friday. Since A Serbian Film is too expensive.

Is 120 Days a popular movie in the collection when it comes to Amazon? My local B&N doesn’t have it in stock.

No problem mate. It's all good.

Bullmoose has a number of Criterions on sale for $19.97.

It's a title that tends to move pretty quickly, yes. It's advisable to order it as early as possible during a sale, which is what I had to do a couple of flash sales ago after missing out a few times. Also recommended for Wes Anderson titles and the like.

you could probably make a living reselling those when the FOMO hits and people panic buy...
