Movietyme Order

Has anybody on here ordered anything from movietyme.com. I ordered a bluray film on Monday and it's still sitting saying order taken, they have taken the money out my account. Surely the order should be at a more advanced stage. In future I think I will pay a bit more to get a better service from elsewhere.

Cheers

Re: Movietyme Order

I know that it usually takes a week but my status has not even changed from Monday, it still says "order taken" so at this rate it will prob take about 2 weeks.

I will try and have more patience.

I ordered CR with them on the 28th September and eventually cancelled it in early December when it was obviously not coming.

My order with DVD Crave arrived within a week.

Not lately, though. They posted two HD-DVDs to me back in December and only one has arrived so far (yesterday). If I'd ordered The Kingdom from movietyme I would have had it weeks ago whereas it's taking weeks to arrive after ordering it from axel. I think it's all swings and roundabouts.

Re: Movietyme Order

I ordered the kingdom HD-DVD from Axel on 30/12/07 and it turned up yesterday 9/1/08.
I was very impressed with that, I chose to order from them after reading recommendations on here.
I do find with all online stores if it's in stock it's quick, if it says available in 2-3 days it can take ages!

That is odd as I ordered the Resident Evil Blu-Ray Trilogy from Axel at xmas, was dispatched last Monday and arrived this Wednesday.

Like I say, it's swings and roundabouts, I don't think the DVD suppliers should be blamed for how long the packages are in transit.
