DVD Box Office Shipping Times

A word from the wise is required.

I ordered a DVD from DVD Box Office that was shipped on the 3rd of this month. Can anyone rest my nerves as to days normally taken to receive said goods.

Please don`t turn this into a bash Consignia (Royal Mail) thread as I am a Postman and proud of it.

Cheers :-))

I`ve waited up to a month for items from them - this was over the xmas period, mind you.

I ordered a DVD before Xmas and got a note saying it was posted 19th Dec. When I did get it (7th Jan) the packing slip said posted 24th Dec. So in light of that It didnt take to long really.

On the whole im happy with their deliveries best time being 5 days the worst 14 so far that is!

The best ever was three days! But the worst was six weeks! But, I`ve never had a disc fail to turn up.

Thanks everyone, I`ll just have to wait it out.

Just a note to say how useful I find this site -

Before being educated by you guys / gals, I used to think Asda was cheap.

Cheers.

Hi Vardre, Like you I`m a postman. I`ve had loads of DVD`s from dvdboxoffice and they`ve always arrived though some of them do take a while. My latest purchase, which arrived today is a `Some Mothers Do `Ave` Em` Box set, 3 discs (£20 and not available in this country) excellent value!

AAAAAAAARRRRGGGHHHH

Tried to play the disc tonight and the trailers will not work or all the chapter selections.

Took the disc to a friends - listened to a 1/2 hour wind up on why my cheap and nasty Dansai could not compare to his Sony. Only to find that it doesn`t work on his either (the only bit of relief I`ve had tonight). Are you listening Mrs Vardre.

Just thought I`d let everyone know.
Maybe I`ll start a thread DVD Boxoffice Customer Care.

Off to sulk ;-}
