After a month and 3 days, my last 2 items from my Arrow order, before the sale, have finally arrived the day before Christmas!! Not to happy about the postie wedging it between the fence posts though

The above e-information, about my order not being sent out due to a title being 'not yet released', was sent to me in an e-mail on Friday (Dec 21st). However, late last night, I received a message that reads: "Hi there, Thanks for your email. I am sorry but your order was a little delayed due to overwhelming demand but is on its way now. It was dispatched on 20th December by 1st class post. Please allow 5 working days for delivery at this time of year. Kind regards Nicole" Is this simply a case of left-hand-not-knowing-what-the-right-is-doing, is it a honest mistake, or is it a blatant lie? I now have a real problem - do I waste the whole day, staying in, hoping that the postie will actually bring this order, or do I go into town to do some shopping (including getting some food for the animals to last them over the next few days), worrying that if the postman DOES come when I am out, I will have to wait until Friday at the earliest before I can get to the sorting office to pick my films up! Incidentally, the e-mail I received yesterday didn't actually let me know the title of the pre-order I have. Bearing in mind this was sent out at 10:40pm on a Sunday night, I am starting to think that all the notes that are being sent are automated, instead of actually coming from someone in person Rant over - for the time being at least!

As the 20th was the last day First class post was guaranteed to arrive before Christmas, it might be worth staying in and waiting. However, parcels are often delivered at different times from the regular mail and, from my experience, can come any time from 7:10am to 8:30pm, so make sure you have plenty to do around the house. However, if it is a real choice between risking your animals die of starvation or risking missing the delivery, I'd go out and buy some animal food!

I prefer buying stuff in an actual shop. And don't mind paying a little more sometimes to just have it now. I lack the patience to wait on the postman. Granted some of HMVs prices really are absurd, 25 to 30 quid for older films on DVD is just daft. But what really lets them down is the lack of damn stock. Hammer blu's? They did have one copy of Quatermass, at twenty quid. Eureka? Forget it. Do seem to keep a few of the Shameless discs though. Arrow?? Who?

As always Scream Factory have done a fantastic job! Worth every coin. I watched Carpenter's THE FOG on my German BD straight after it,and whilst the daytime scenes look incredible,the night scenes are often dark and murky,forcing me to turn the pic setting to 'dynamic' to see what was going on. Either that or the hangover was worse than I thought!
