Received Your DVDs Yet?

I just had a thought - let's start a separate thread so we can announce when we each get our DVD sets. Do you think that will be fun?

I do.

Tell you why.

I JUST GOT MINE!!!!



:sunshi: :sunshi:



I LIKE DVDPlanet!!!!!!

Well, I'm going to go monopolize the TV now.

TTFN!

Long Live the REAL Galactica!!!

I am

I appreciate all the congratulatory words, guys. I just consider myself very lucky (and thank DVDPlanet), and I hope everybody gets theirs in the next few days. (Am I the only one here who ordered from DVDPlanet? sdoziernc1, over at CA, got his yesterday, too, from them.)

Yep, it's worth waiting for. A real milestone for fans of the real Galactica!

BTW, I started a "review" thread last night so everybody can chime in on it when they get theirs:

Frack!!! back about two months go I left my Debit card in one of those old time ATM machines, the ones that take your card all the way in. So any who I forgot my card and missed the beep-beep "take your Card assclown" warning. I NEVER UPDATED MY NEW CARD NUMBER WITH DVD PLANET. I checked my order status...CANCELLED.




Placed my order today with UGO for next day shipping...ahhh the universe is in order again *calm* peace be with you friends.

I rushed off to the local Best Buy today. After Dawg's coup, I just *had* to be the next kid on the block to get my mittens on these. Best Buy had the best pre-release Canadian pricing. I learned that they had 12 in stock, and looked up and down in the Sci-Fi and TV sections for the box set. Not on the shelf (as expected).

So I had the employee scurry out back, hoping that maybe someone had unpacked them from the Universal boxes. No such luck. One of the twelve has my name on it and is still sitting stacked in a corner with other Universal product. I guess I'll have to wait until Tuesday.

Arrrrrrrrrgh.

Default DVDs shipped out today..

I didn't order my DVDs from Amazon.com until the 10th of this month. I noticed that the charge on my card showed up yesterday, so I just checked the status of the shipment. It shows that the the item was shipped out UPS ground from Delaware at 11:30am eastern time today and it still has a projected date of delivery of the 23rd or 24th. I paid the 2.98 for shipping, but I thought that it was supposed to arrive in 3 days, not 5 days. We'll just have to see how long UPS takes to get it across the entire U.S. by ground...

I think this has a lot to do with which retailer ordered the most first,and who is getting the bulk of the first order.As it is Target is supposed to be getting these dvds in as well,but there not being advertised as we haven't gotten them in yet.Oh well,I'll be buying mine at Best Buy as well if they have any left.

I checked my amazon account and mine shipped yesterday from Kentucky also by ups ground to California, so the race is on to see who's gets here first.

Default Free Shipping delays

I just checked my Amazon account and the box set has not shipped, but I just found out that if you selected the Free Super Saver shipping, it adds 3-5 days to the shipping date!!!

Well, I guess I can wait another week. Like I said, I've waited this long...

Its here I'm literally opening it up right NOW...just as I'm having coffee and getting packed for my drive to Los Angeles. The Cylon head which for some reason does not look human does look like it fall right out from the shrink wrap. I hope this Dolby digital surround kicks...I don't get that Sensoround rumble from my VHS tapes.

OMG, the Collector's book inside looks so cool...BLUE PRINTS of the bridge ahhh-mmm-ahhh-ohh I think I just jizzed my self. Will reprot back later.

Default Cut Scenes

The cut scenes are precious. I started looking at LPOTG scenes based John’s Tele-movie thread, with the exception of Cassie’s scene they gave so much depth and should have been included. For all those mini-series types who say Baltar is silly and lack depth and motivation another gem of John Collicos and Baltar’s motivation is one of those cool deleted scenes.

The running commentary with Richard, Dirk and Herb is like watching with some buddies over cold beers…some times you want to tell Dirk to shut up and “hey Hatch while you’re up grab me another cold Sam Adams”.

Thank You Buy.Com

John Colicos was a fine actor. I saw him in a Twilight Zone ep and he was incredible.I think BSG needed a 2nd season for Baltar to really shine.
Glad you got your DVDs 17th!

If Bg was renewed for a second season I don't believe Baltar was coming back. Tigh wasn't.

I've got mine, it winged it's way over the Atlantic in two days!

I've watched the documentaries, and have fallen in love with the show again.

Battlestar Galactica, you were the BEST!
