Silly thing to argue, but then again I'm a silly bastard. July 7th was the first day for pre-orders. They announced it on their Facebook page, and I gave them my money mere minutes later. My bank statement says so. Lol

And I ALWAYS let them know the status of their order -- despite the Internet being relatively new.

This isn't a difficult thing to do AT ALL. Not even remotely. These days it's entirely automated. Being a "small company" does not excuse this behavior. Especially when people who ordered 2 days ago are getting slipping slips while those of us who ordered 2 months ago have gotten nothing.

Please, PLEASE stop making excuse for this company, unless this is a company you work for. If you work for this company, just be straight with us and ADMIT it. Thank you.

Well good for you. That's how you handled stuff. This is a different small company. They handle things differently. Technically, when you preorder, all that guarantees is that you get a copy. Not when you get the copy.

Nope, I do not work for them. But I know they've been slaving away at this damn thing night and day. They've hit some snags and they've made people aware of it. Should they be a bit more cordial? Yes. Should people be flipping out here about it, leading some to even say they are scamming and we're never going to get a copy of this? Definitely not.

PLEASE continue trashing them and complaining. It will make your copy show up that much faster.

I ordered mine from DD, on June 28th.

I'm pretty sure they're not psychic

I ordered last Friday 9/7. Paid via Paypal (used a partial credit) and have not received shipping notification. There may be no rhyme or reason to the shipping unless it's based on location.

I do think in all fairness that the people who ordered it early on should be the ones shipped to first.

SadistikSlayer · 09-13-2013, 04:31 PM

Okay, I see where it's not confirmed that anybody who ordered it substantially later than the pre-order start date has gotten a shipping notification. Just some people who ordered in the first few days. Still possible that they did chronological shipping, if not notification.

Sound like your typical "exclusive" bs they always put on us.

velfornia · 09-13-2013, 05:50 PM

I get that this being a small company it may take them longer to get things out to people and that is understandable, I'll try to be as patient as possible. The only thing that is killing everything is moving the date from August 27th to Friday the 13th. I mean as an obsessed fan of the series, having bought the first two sets, the new one, and the dvds through the years, I am a little bit ticked off that this pre-order wasn't made available to me today.

The whole thing was very poorly handled. They might as well have kept the august 27th date and toyed with us until Friday the 13th that way I could have it and celebrate it. What is the point of them posting all these Facebook statuses that they are available today and blah blah when that's not the case.

It being a pre-order should mean we get everything on release date. Now correct me if i'm wrong, they may not have ever said that it would ship on the 13th, but why is it that the flaunt date is today. OOO let me celebrate this magical day while waiting for a shipment I placed a while ago still NOT get the shipping status. Very dissatisfied. I had no problems getting Never Sleep Again when I put in the pre-order and got it a day early actually. Just confused on this sloppy mess

Perhaps they meant Friday the 13th of Dec.

Pleased they didn't use a cheap case I'd have to replace.

HarrisonJohn · 09-13-2013, 06:51 PM

A lot of the delay had to do with them trying to appease as many fan complaints as possible to begin with... why no DVD, why no subtitles, etc.

I paid by paypal (using my credit card) and so they've had my payment for a very long time now. Perhaps the people who paid but credit card by not paypal (and thus haven't paid yet) automatically fell behind those of us that paid using paypal. It would make some sense that they'd send these out to the people that have already transferred the funds.

That is how I paid as well, very early in the day on the 8th, and I haven't received a shipping notice either. Maybe they are going alphabetically or maybe by region, I don't know. Early orderers have a valid reason to be concerned that their copy hasn't shipped while someone who recently ordered already has notice that it's on the way.

Speaking only for me, I will give them the benefit of the doubt and wait for a few days before expecting a ship notice. But, if there is nothing by the end of Tuesday/Wednesday, I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger...

a pre-order only means that your order is placed before release and as such guarantees you a copy should they sell out by the time the release date hits. it has nothing to do when you receive it.

i think some people are just a little "spoiled" by the american amazon's work at delivering their pre-orders ahead of time. but not everyone does that and nobody has to do that. that isn't a rule or promise for anyone to keep.

i can't speak for the other canadians here but i've rarely received pre-orders ahead of time....it happens from time to time but i can count on one hand without a thumb how often thats happened in my lifetime. most of the time (especially with amazon.ca) pre-orders are shipped on release day so i dont have them until 1-3 business days later or a week or more if its a non canadian website.

I might be alone here, but as a super FRIDAY THE 13th fan, I think I'm one of the few just happy that this, and the franchise collection, will soon be in my hands.

Too much complaining on these threads from the 'fans' imo.

FelixFlankin · 09-13-2013, 07:25 PM

I just hope I get mine before next weekend. I work, so watching this on Friday the 13th wasn't going to happen regardless.
