I would speak to someone at Amazon, they have reps online.

My talk to Amazon CS most likely a chat bot. You can file an automatic claim for Marketplace delivery as it’s past due date and there’s no tracking.

Not had to claim for some time but last time I did, assuming you accept Amazon credit they will refund immediately and credit your account all done automatically and no human intervention needed.

Think if you want a cash refund it has to go to a disputes process so the seller is given the opportunity to respond and provide tracking to show where item is or it has been delivered.

Movie Mars on eBay waited over a week to cancel my order of Danger Within, so I had to pay through the nose to get the last existing copy from another seller. Not cool.

I sympathize--I had two separate orders for the complete series set cancelled, so I ordered the individual six volumes on Amazon.uk while they still has stock.

I am looking for Revenge! (1971) for my collection of revenge films.



Please let me know if any of you come across it.

Put it on the notification thing on Amazon so that you know when it turns up there.

Also put it as a saved search on eBay.

Anyone got the link I posted on here, last month, to the Internet Archive which basically meant you could search through the Network website, albeit the long winded way & not via the search function?

Also can someone put it on the first post so that people can find it easier.

I may be a complete idiot (plenty of people would probably confirm), but how do I put on 'notification thing on Amazon'?

There used to be an option to enter an email address to get a message when an item was back in stock. But here, it says "Currently unavailable.
We don't know when or if this item will be back in stock," and the only option for me is to add it to a list.

Is there a notification option buried somewhere else that I am overlooking?

I've noticed it's not been an option on most, if not all, the items I've been interested in for the last couple years or so...I used it back when the current gen consoles first went up for pre-order but haven't seen the option in a while

I'm thinking about grabbing Sweeney and Sweeney 2 (the movies), though I'm gonna skip on the series itself - one, I've spent too much on DVDs this month as it is and two, the set with all the special features is considerably more expensive than the barebones one anyway - but I'm curious about the films, as they're affordable and at least in HD. Do they work as standalone films? Or am I going to be lost without having seen the series? Are they actually any good?

Does anyone have any comments on this one:



Is it worth picking up if you are into old TV horror and thriller series?

One option is to use camelcamelcamel and set up a price watch. Set it as high as you are comfortable paying for it for all options (Amazon, 3rd party new, or 3rd party used) and wait for the e-mail notification once one appears.

There's also a browser extension which you can get which can be easily accessed anytime you want to add another watch on the various Amazon sites.

Yes.

If you like old VT stuff especially. This was shot in the old format of tape with film inserts for location.

Armchair Thriller is a good box set in the same vein too if you haven't got it already.

I think the PQ is very good and there are reviews on this site, with frame grabs.

And I think they work well as standalone films.

Superb series but I saw it when it was first broadcast so it has a strong nostalgic element for me. Some of the best writing Brian Clemens ever did - full of plot twists.

Hmmm. I'd definitely prioritise the series on DVD over the films.

Yes, especially if you play the decanter game (have a drink every time one appears) while watching.

Yes. If you're into old British TV there's lots of familiar faces.

As others have said, this definitely is worth picking up.
I watched it when it was first broadcast, and enjoyed it then.
I bought this years ago, and still enjoy it now. If you can buy it buy it now before it goes OOP. You won't regret it.

Yes, and Scorpion Tales too, which is one of their more obscure releases.
