That is a potential issue.
We have seen a shutdown of replication facilities over the past decade in anticipation that physical media would become a niche format.
It's still a huge "IF" about Disney getting back into physical media sales. However, hypothetically if they did, it would create a...
Ordering these 3 Cameron titles has been an interesting learning experience.
When ordering Disney/Fox titles:
1. Don't order from Amazon. I am seeing complaints here and across the Facebook groups of delays in shipments.
2. Walmart was a true surprise. They shipped before street date and...
Mine did arrive on Sunday. At least THE ABYSS and TRUE LIES did. ALIENS are to arrive Thursday.
Walmart ships in corrugated cardboard. Not the best way to protect the discs inside, though better than a plain envelope, and even better FedEx instead of USPS delivered it. There was no creases...
Yeah, I remember you got a really good deal on it.
I was not concerned about my delivery date. I have been waiting years for these films and as such, my attitude was whenever I get them, so be it. You saved money in the end.
I take it that's Walmart?
The only thing I noticed, unless there is a mistake, is that it only includes two of the three titles. ALIENS delivers on Thursday.
All three films could simultaneously have dropped to $24.95 on Amazon by release day.
I am going to hold my order with Walmart for the fact that I don't want to play around with "what if" pricing from Amazon and whether or not the products will ship on the release date given Disney's sketchy...
So much for sharing possible misfortune by ordering from Walmart.
I am rolling the dice on this one. Not comfortable ordering from them.
On the plus side, good to hear you got a better price with Target.
I would assume that etailers are promised a certain number of copies avoiding the overselling of preorders.
Jeff, as you experienced, I have a pending charge for the full amount on my credit card account. I expect that to drop off shortly based on everyone else's ordering history.
BTW, just a heads-up...
While ALIENS and THE ABYSS remain at $24.95, TRUE LIES has jumped to $39.95 at Walmart. I assume inventory may be getting tight and they are taking advantage of that.
Thank you. This is nothing new. We encourage and appreciate the support, but have always realized our members are going to seek out the best deals (which is usually Amazon).
Thanks, guys for all the buying tips. I realize PayPal and gift cards are always safer purchasing methods when thinking about credit card security. I'll roll the dice on Walmart one more time and remove the card from my account after my discs ship. Sadly, I ended up using them, but they are...
Just ordered all three titles from Walmart w/tax and free shipping for just under $80. Delivery March 14th.
Gotta go with the best price. Amazon COULD price match, but generally when it first lists for $39 it rarely goes down to $24.95. Even if it does, the question comes into play as to...
Thanks, Robert. That's good to know. I will probably go that route and I am happy I have a partner in this order. I am a little wary of creating another Walmart account and giving them my credit card after the first debacle, but the price is cheap and I understand that they are pretty...
It's a good time to be a member of the Disney Movie Club. I join, fulfill my agreement, and get out because too many times, they ship me the selection of the month after I specifically select that they don't. However, had I remained active, I would be enjoying the incredible discount...
So, right out of the gate, Amazon is selling these titles for $15 more each than Walmart.
Granted, the price will drop by the release date, but I don't think it will drop that low. Maybe $27.95?
I am wondering if Walmart is the place to order these. The problem with them is that I once had...

Thanks, guys. Looks like Bullmoose is the way to go since they don't charge at preorder other than authorization.
Thank you, guys, for the input on this.
I am ready to place preorders for all three.
Normally, I would wait for Amazon. However, history has shown that Amazon's delivery reliability with Disney titles is spotty.
I also want to place an order and not be charged until it ships. Hopefully, @TonyD can update us on whether that charge...
