DVD Soon and their free shipping.

Hi,

I want to place a pre-order for the Season 1 Boxset of Renegade from DVD Soon, as it's at a bargain price of about £13.

However, DVd Soon's free shipping offer expires on Dec 31st and Renegade isn't released until the end of January.

Sooooooo... does anyone know if I'll qualify for free shipping as I'll be ordering before 31st Dec but the goods won't ship until Jan 05.

Any ideas,

Thanks,

Matthew

its when you place your order. so as long as you order this year you will get free shipping on any preorders

They did this last year. The free shipping went away briefly then came back again.

its unlikely to come back next year as this is now one of the bonus features of thier new loyalty card. you pays $50 and you get free shipping and 5% discount. if you sign up before the new year you get a bonus of 1% for each year you've been a customer. Its already paid for itself for me in the 3 months I've had it so with free shipping as well for me next year its a bargain.

only worth it you buy a lot from them though.

Presumably you can still take out the loyalty card after the free shipping ends?

Like Graham, mine has also paid for itself already over the 3 or 4 months that I've had it.

It still don't get your orders posted any earlier though.

Which offer, the free P&P or the Fidelity iCard?

If you mean the Fidelity iCard, then where does it say that?

The extra 1% per year offer does:

Introductory offer!
Take advantage of even greater savings!
For a limited time only, new Fidelity iCard members will also receive an additional 1% savings for each year the DVDSoon.com account has been opened, to a total maximum of 10%.

For example, if you first opened your DVDSoon.com account 2 years ago, your iCard savings will total to 7%!

This offer ends December 31st, 2004

Sorry Dave, it's been a long day I misread your question.
