I have not recieved either of them as of today, and when I emailed Amazon, they claimed that they werew lost in transit. So I have 2 dvds out of about 12 i ordered. I've not had this problem before, but I just wondered if anyone else waiting on gifts was left hanging?

Ya. I have 4 titles on order and, even though they are all listed as "in stock", my order isn't shipping until after Jan 2nd! After sending an e-mail I got a response stating that my order was on schedule and the delivery date could not be pushed up. And, knowing full well from my e-mail that they were supposed to be X-mas gifts, they didn't bother to give me a discount or credit or gift card of any sort for the "inconvenience". I'm hoping like hell that they have some sales this week so that I can have some SERIOUS price matching deals on them!!!
