Same policy with me, and I test it to see how it plays, what the artwork looks like inside, how the menus are, etc.

Which I may try the next time I preorder something-- thanks for the tip.

They almost teed me off-- I was purchasing two things this time with my debit card; one was Universal's all-in-one DVD of the hit CBS Bixby/Ferrigno Incredible Hulk, and the other was the preorder of that upcoming Blu of The Act (that hit Hulu limited series w/Joey King and Patricia Arquette). I...

How can you return them if you don't have them?

That is something else, not getting anywhere near what you purchased and expected.

It probably is-- I think it best that such a thing be ignored.

Indeed-- I always thought that once you made a selection and purchase, Amazon's workers would be johnny-on-the-spot finding it, packing it and sending it.

Why didn't they just send it directly to you and cut out all the middleman bull?

Why would the Canadian Amazon so sneakily try to make you purchase what you had in your wish list?

And I hope there remains no issue!

Indeed-- VISA is charging ever higher rates (a clear example of restricting consumer choice), yet acts all butthurt that Amazon doesn't want to do business with 'em anymore over it? That is rich.

Why didn't you get the originals back to them in time? Also, why would they penalize you so severely for not doing so?

$6 for sugar?! Outrageous!

Great point-- maybe that driver had a lapse of memory or had something else on his mind other than total dedication to the job, but that hardly makes that driver an idiot/imbecile.

And for that, they should be severely censured, maybe fired!

Arrived in a flash, didn't it?!

I think that's why they always say to use credit cards-- they have more protections.

You're not alone-- I've gotten quite a few things from Amazon far in advance of their stated arrival dates; one has been that A&E release of the Cincinnati Reds 1975 World Series for Christmas one year. I didn't expect it for quite a few days before when it was scheduled to arrive, but one day...

One that got me lately is that one time, I was reading reviews on the release of the first half-go of Vega$ (that 1978-81 ABC detective/action series w/the late Robert Urich), and many of the reviews on that entry were for that later unsuccessful CBS series called Vegas (that without the $ in...

Why would different products' reviews be mixed together?

Like different packaging formats of the same single seasonal release of a show (slipcases v. keepcase, for instance)?

Yes, very much so! I had it when I was reviewing Timeless' M Squad all-in-one-- I talked about what the show was about, how it was packaged, A/V, and similar things. I submitted the review, and was rebuffed, but had no idea why, outside of Amazon telling me to refer to their "guidelines." I...

No wonder I don't use Prime (not that I care for how Prime does business)!

Why would they not care which item goes in which bag, seemingly to the expense of more fragile items that would be compromised by heavier items on top of them?

Seems you have a point there-- I was going on the assumption that if the box was damaged, then what's inside obviously had to have been damaged as well. It appears, however, that whatever you purchase can arrive safe and sound for you, even if the packaging from Amazon (or wherever you get it...

I think those might depend on better packaging than what you got!

What did you purchase from Amazon that came like that?

Thought so! After all, the redone Andy Griffith all-in-one has no special features disc.

I take it by your description that you mean the original version of that Andy Griffith all-in-one, with the gingham pattern on the packaging, and fold-out individual seasonal packages; is that correct?

What was wrong with your copy of that Andy Griffith all-in-one?
