I ordered three DVD`s (Apollo 13, £7.99, Twister £6.99 Scent of a woman £6.99) from there sale on December 28th. All showed as in stock. 1st Question how can sale items be listed and out of stock? Email received all out of stock. I waited about one week later I received an email saying Apollo 13 had been sent. and it arrived not sealed and looked like it had been play, however it was good condition so let it slide. A few days later email received saying Twister had been sent. This arrived sealed. Still no scent of a woman. Checked on their site and back up to full price of £14.99 and showing in stock. Rang them helpful but distant. Emailed them, no reply. Finally Scent of a woman arrived yesterday morning unsealed with the chapter card so dog-eared and torn. It was certainly 2nd hand. Rang them again and told to send back, still no stock, so taken over a month and still waiting NOT IMPRESSED. Any one else had bad experience with these cowboys?

I bought a few things off them ages ago and was fairly impressed with their service. But when the Kingfisher group (MVC, Woolworths, etc) bought them their prices went up so I stopped buying stuff. Still, I hope your problem is resolved (this year).

I ordered Excalibur and Tomb Raider on Tuesday and they arrived today.

Thought they were quite good actually.
