Has anybody received their dvds from the thanksgiving sale at bestbuy.com yet? I ordered Fight Club and got an email saying it was shipped November 24th. I still haven't gotten it yet thought. Does anybody know where they ship from? This is probably the longest I have ever had to wait to receive a DVD in the mail once it has already shipped.

I ordered Shawshank Redemption & Braveheart on the 24th or 25th. It shipped Sunday Nov. 26th, and I received them today. The return address was somewhere in MN I believe - shipped USPS.

I ordered a few DVDs on the 24th and the 25th, as well as a few days earlier, I ordered the 10pack Dysan CD-Rs for $2.00, which they said shipped out on the 26th, but I have yet to receive ANY of them.. it's been more than 10 days, and frankly, that sucks... A company like Bestbuy should at LEAST fork over a little $$$ to offer UPS Ground or something...

For the record...the shipping delay isn't because of the method that they are shipped, USPS, it that Bestbuy.com's USPS orders disappear somewhere for a week before actual shippment is made. In many cases, BB.com's USPS orders NEVER show up at all.

I think BB is just lazy with the small orders or something. Who knows.

They've been one of the slowest I've encountered, without fail.

I made two separate orders on the 24th, one arrived Friday, 12/01, but the other is still MIA.

I ordered and all but one shipped out on the 24th...that one shipped out on the 26th. I got it, but not the others. I was getting worried, but I guess I'll wait a couple of days before I call since others are experiencing similar shipping delays.

I guess all that money going into the US mail system is spent about as well as the money in Welfare, Medicare, Social Security, etc...And then they have the gall to ask for more?

Slow as sh it on the shipping, but a great deal all the same!
