Yeah, but maybe that's a good thing. We can overwhelm first thing with many purchases and get them to commit to at least Season Two before the euphoria wears off. We can try!

Yeah, and so I wrote to amazon.ca the other day and asked if they knew if they intended to offer it once it was available for presell. They wrote back and said, "It's not on our site right now; feel free to keep checking." Or words to that effect. Well, duh! If it had been on the site right now, I wouldn't have had to ask, now would I?
Honestly, I don't think it's ever been as difficult to give money to somebody for such a simple thing.

Okay, and I'm not trying to be paranoid or anything, but now Amazon.com doesn't even have that little listing that says "email me when this becomes available". A search for H&M returns only the Airwolf series. What's up with that?

This is bad. I sense legal entanglements.

Amazon did no such thing maybe the & is messing up your search. The listing is under Hardcastle and McCormick or simply just click on this: www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00005JOQX/ref=pd_bbs_null_1/103-0615427-7277455?s=dvd&v=glance&n=130The place to be checking for this is only @ Amazon.ca ... nothing on amazon.com should concern you about this release as it is not being released in USA. By next weekend we should all be able to place our order on Amazon.ca and other canadian websites. Just have a little more patience, i know it's hard i am dying to get my hands on this set aswell. But we are almost there!!!

Also, Amazon's been having some difficulties recently. They're finagling their site and their affiliates programs which may have affected the search program temporarily. We're going to put a link directly to the Amazon.CA page selling the DVDs on the "other" board, but we have to wait until the page actually exists. It should be easy to do once it's up for sale. Just find the link (or the post I'll make announing it), click three times and you've bought it. Can I put one up here, too, please?

Okay, I shalln't panic just yet. It's all very mysterious, though, seeing all these other shows come out and this one, no. Then the Canadian thing. Very strange. Why wouldn't they want to make some money off it? And here I am wanting to give them some.

Well, it's the weirdest thing. Seems the search is case sensitive. Lower case names returns the Airwolf result, properly capitalized takes me back to the link. Hm. And, yeah, this I know on an intellectual level, but the part of me that has waited fairly patiently for far too long for this release feels better when I prowl incessantly around the internet looking for even a hint of a mention. I'll have to keep chanting like a mantra or something: We're almost there; we're almost there!

Whoa. That's a lot more than going through our link or directly to Amazon.ca. Either way, each set would only be $26 American. I know tvshowsondvd has to make a living, but to charge almost $10 more per set?

I ordered my set.. i was tempted to go with the priority shipping but it was $15 us almost as much as the set. I ended up paying a buck more for expedited which takes 4 to 8 days to receive. Total for my order was $31.28 CAD which translates to $27.28 US Dollars.

Tvshowsondvd.com doesn't charge people anything. So not sure what your talking about. What it looks like he is saying is he got notice by email that Amazon.ca now had the listing for hardcastle up for order. So he went to amazon.ca and placed his order, simple as that. TvShows has nothing to do with his cost. He chose the expensive 2 to 3 day international priority shipping that is why his price is alot higher. I hope i cleared that up because i never like to see anyone knocking the great TVSHOWSONDVD.COM !!

Sorry for the misunderstanding -- I saw this: "Please help support TVShowsOnDVD.com by ordering the title from the links on our site. It's through people using those links that we are able to pay for the operation of the site." and noticed the high price and didn't realize _all_ the extra payment was for shipping. I do have that right, now, yes? $15 extra for each set for faster shipping? Yikes, that's still a lot extra. I'm looking forward to a better picture, but I can watch my current set 'til the 24th. Again, sorry for the confusion. Yes, tvshowsondvd.com is great!
