Amazon prime - Blu-ray Forum

Moviemaniack1993 · 09-29-2008, 05:13 PM

I have a quick question about Amazon prime. I know this shouldn't be under Blu-ray movies, but whatever. I order off the internet less than I should, but I am considering signing up for Amazon prime. If a movie is released on Tuesday, and I pay the $3.99 for one day shipping, then will the movie come Tuesday or Wednesday? OR, does Amazon ever ship anything out early so that it will arrive on its release day? I am new to Amazon prime and I would like to know because it seems that A LOT of people on these forums pre-order from there ALL THE TIME. I am more used to going to a B&M store on Tuesdays.

Depending upon your location will be the Tuesday/Wednsday. Because I live close to the Distribution center in Kentucky I get it on Tuesday(same day release date) every time. Others that are farther than their distribution center receive it on Weds.

You fail. Try harder next time, and search.

If i pay $3.99 for overnight shipping, i will get it that Wednesday! I never get it on a Tuesday unless i go into a store and pick it up!

I always receive my movies on Wednesday with prime. I've never ordered next day but since my orders ship on Mondays I'd assume that by paying next day you'd receive it on release date.

Nah. There's no need to start 2 identical threads. Especially when it's a question that's probably been asked over 50 times on this site. Oh - and that's against forum rules too. My first post in the other thread was nice! My split personalities kicked in

benricci · 09-29-2008, 05:48 PM

ah, didn't see he had two of the same topic.

Minimejer05 · 09-29-2008, 09:54 PM

I havent tried overnight shipping yet. I usually get mine on Wed. with the 2 day shipping.

GGX · 09-29-2008, 10:21 PM

A lot of times I'll get it release day just by choosing the free 2 day shipping.
