If you have been getting their newsletters or reading this thread you would know that they have already told their customers that unless they have been notified otherwise, they will receive all titles on their order regardless if they are currently sold out.

No I haven't been following this thread and thanks for letting me know I'll be getting my titles eventually.

Also, if the status is awaiting shipment and not awaiting fulfillment, then you're safe and your items are assigned and just awaiting shipment.

Has there ever been a master list of all the Twilight Time commentary tracks? I've been digging into the 11 or so releases I picked up during the sale and have really been loving to listen to the commentary tracks on every single one of them.

The Chase is no longer available for sale on the Twilight Time website.

45 Twilight Time titles plus the Twilight Time/Redwing release of Sunshine. There are also a few Classic Flix titles still available.

Just noticed the status changed to shipped so even better.

Same here. Coming FedEx, so it should get here in a couple of days.

Still have one pickup order (2 titles) I placed on 6/21, but that's it for me for Twilight Time Movies. I still have an order to place with SAE for five titles that went OOP at TTM before I could order.

[DavidRoylance]

Ok, so what do we reckon SAE is going to do on July 1st? Keep the sale going or up the stock they take on to RRP?

Good question. But that's why I'm ordering what I need to get from them before Wednesday.

In the meantime, some of those out-of-stock titles that we've been waiting for have appeared on the Twilight Time website ... and no, Bell, Book and Candle isn't among them. Instead, these are back in stock and available to order:

The 3 Worlds of Gulliver
Anastasia
Broken Lance
The Chase
The Quiet American
The True Story of Jesse James
Warlock

Those aren't quite the titles I know we were all hoping for. Who knows? Maybe there are more to come ...

Are we sure these are some of the titles they were referring to? The newsletter stated they'd be sold at the full 29.95 retail price, whereas these are all discounted. That, along with the fact that The True Story of Jesse James sold out after that particular announcement, leads me to believe this was just extra stock that took a while to get to them. Still, the fact that the company is supposed to end the day after tomorrow and we haven't even had a heads-up notice feels odd...

[xochipilli]

Actually, scratch that, some of those definitely sold earlier. However, if some of the titles I want show up, I hope the sales price holds.

These seem more like just fluctuating stock of the sale titles, which we've already seen happen before. They did say they would announce the list of titles and when they'd be available, so I'd still expect that first... But they did say that announcement would come "later this month" and given that they're supposedly closing shop in a week... well, it is a bit strange to have not heard anything. Maybe they weren't able to make it happen quick enough and now they're changing plans. Nothing to do but wait!

Sorry if I've misunderstood your questions/concerns, but based on the email TT sent out a while back, they'll be accepting new orders for US and Canada until July 6. That email also said that a selection of older sold-out titles would be made available at original full price, and any newly-added stock of sale titles that went OOS during the sale would be made available at the sale prices, and it was strongly implied that this would all happen before July 6 -- so, there's still time for this to happen, but not much.

Yeah, I haven't been paying as much attention as I could to this situation. I thought I heard that there was actually still a way for international customers to order these titles. Guess I was wrong. Thanks anyway.

I could be wrong about the cutoff date for international orders; reading the TT email again, I'm not sure it's super clear. Here's what it says, maybe it'll make more sense to you lol. That last line seems to suggest international customers can place orders up to July 6 that'll be shipped by FedEx...?

Important Dates: Monday, July 6th will now be the last date we will accept new orders for Twilight Time films. Please note, orders will continue to ship after this date until all are fulfilled. The last date to place orders for regular and priority international shipping for all countries except Canada will be Friday, June 19th. Please note that international orders will also continue to ship after this date until all are fulfilled. Federal Express international shipping will be available for all countries through July 6th.

I ordered Adventures of Hajji Baba, Three Coins in a Fountain and Yanks recently. TT's excellent tracking info showed that they arrived in the UK yesterday and are on the way to me.
