Is Deep Discount DVD a good deal? - DVDfile.com forum for DVD, Blu-Ray, and HD-DVD

Iguana Man · 02-20-2006, 09:18 PM

I keep getting these emails from DDDvd and wonder if their prices are worth looking at. For instance, they are offering me (and you) the Pink Panther cartoon collection for $40 bucks.

I only ask because I don't recall seeing anyone mention them here and I'm suspicious of "deals" to begin with.

I buy from DDD all the time. Their prices are pretty good. Usually you can get new releases cheaper at the box stores where they're frequently under wholsale, either as a loss leader or a quantity discount. DDD's shipping tends to be a bit slow (but cheap) and their service is minimal. Not that you can get something exchanged (I have) just don't expect them to respond to emails inside 24 hours.

I've been pimping DDD for years now. Like Iguana said, sometimes they've got awesome prices, but as you discovered, sometimes not so much. I got an email from them the other day telling me about Hustle and Flow, which they were proclaiming an awesome deal at 20.98. Excuse me, but I can buy it damn near anywhere on earth for 19.99. You have to just keep an eye on them. Yeah, the shipping's slow as crap when you go with the free shipping (which they should be given props for even offering) but if you check often, you'll notice that things are cheaper on release day or shortly after. So, if you are patient, you can snag a sweet deal. I've had nothing but good experiences with the customer service.

I've spent probably 3k there in the last 5 years.

What forum have you been hanging out here in the past few years, to not have heard of DDD?

I got ADD, not DDD...Ok?

If it's been promoted here, I honestly did miss it.
