Ok guys if you are a big fan of Dvd Soon don't read

This came from a friend of mine whom lives in Canada who got this from his
friend whom works in the shipping department at Dvd Import who now own Dvd
Soon. I have asked him questions regarding this issue but has said all what
i tell you now is what he knows so no questions guys but comments welcome
and as i said it is from a friend so how true this is i cannot say but i
trust the friend. Ok here goes

Since Dvd Import took over Dvd Soon most of the dvds on the site are listed
as in stock so what has been happening is of course once people see that
they will order and of course once you order the dosh is taken right away,
he also said that most people will go elsewhere if a dvd is not in stock
this is the ploy behind in stock on most dvds and really most dvds that say
in stock are not and what then happens is you think that your order is going
to be shipped in a few days and it doesn't, but like me my account says the
order was shipped weeks ago.

You then end up waiting 8 weeks before you can order replacements or refund
and by this time the dvd or dvds you ordered should be in stock and of
course sent right away. Also no shipment emails are being sent out to you
which is very strange. I ordered 4 dvds in May and got one shipment email,
got that dvd a week later but the other three dvds i did not get a shipment
email and only knew they had been shipped by my account details 2 weeks ago
and they where shipped the beginning of June.

The friend to me this is a ploy to get customers back after the fiasco with
Dvd Soon before they went bust but to me this is just as bad if not worse.
99% of dvds on their site say they are in stock but really only 30% actually
are and this happens in Canada aswell as Internationally.

Some of you guys might say no problems here and i was amazed at how quick
the dvd i actually got was shipped but since then and reading posts on here
i had to query why so many people i have spoke to are still waiting on dvds
4-5 weeks after shipment so this is why i emailed my friend who was on
holiday for two weeks in Spain and got back to me last week and said he
would ask around.

Of course the other night he told me about this friend. Do i believe him,
yes but if you don't i am sorry but i thought the info would give people a
chance to think hard before ordering from Dvd Soon or Dvd Import. I have
never actually used Dvd Import so don't know how reliable they are but
judging by Dvd Soon they have a lot to answer for.

So please think carefully before ordering from Dvd Soon and if anyone from
this company wants to comment on here we would be grateful

Dave
