Thanks for the info!

Which is so weird. Always thought it was weird that you had to either call or email them to cancel an order. Most online retailers have a place to cancel an order if it isn't shipped. And when it's sometimes taking a week with them it can be tempting.

They are getting a lot of snow in that area I would guess. I work for a company that our offices in Richmond have closed for the day.

Can't you just leave a voice massage with your order # and what you want to cancel?

I bought a harmonica tonight

.

It's a Swan 1248 Chromatic.

Why am I telling you this?

For this reason: Order placed through an eBay store at 8:05PM followed immediately by confirmation of the order and confirmation of payment by PayPal. At 9:24 PM, 79 minutes after ordering, I received email from the company in Jiangsu, China that my harmonica had shipped.

Twilight Time needs to hire these guys!

Child Labor Laws prevent that unfortunately

Now you can play the blues while you wait the extra week on a shipping notice for your blu's.

As I haven't checked in this thread for a while, I was horrified when I got my package today from SAE which included Khartoum in an ECO CASE! It was sent in a box and the insert was still in pretty bad shape. I felt insulted, having been a loyal customer for so long and paying good money (some say way too much) for a lot of titles over the years.

Has it been confirmed by them that they are quitting this bullshit with the eco cases or do the new titles still come with them? I have four upcoming titles I'm planning to buy from them between April-June and it would be good to know.

Yeah, I think it was only the January titles, because the February titles are in regular cases.

Would an eco case really dissuade you from buying a blu-ray that you otherwise would?

At the price they charge. Yes.

No, but I would lower my expectations and quite honestly, dread the day they arrive in fear of the state the insert could be in. For 30 dollars a pop plus shipping, I think we deserve more than an eco case.

My copy of KHARTOUM is also in an eco case, but THE BLUE MAX is not. Not sure what's going on, but I have many spare BD cases, so it's not an issue with me.

A point I've made before is that I don't care about the quality of the packaging once it's in my house because I take care of my stuff.

But I'm extremely concerned about the quality of packaging as a shipping vessel. Eco cases off no impact or pucture protection for BDs shipped in envelopes. For discs that are regularly shipped long distances, an Eco case has to be consideration. If I desperately wanted a movie, sure I'd take a chance. If I was on the fence about buying a film, then an Eco case could be a deal breaker.

That being said Twilight Time has said they won't be used in the future and I take them at their word.

My last shipment had MAN IN THE DARK in an Eco case and THE BLUE MAX in a standard case.

Tom Monahan · 03-04-2014, 04:52 PM

This is why I wait to order multiple titles at a time to get them shipped in a box.
