View Full Version : Try to buy season 4 on DVD today but the store didn't have it
TVFactFan 12-31-2012, 07:41 PM This piece of ____ store is called "FYE" and I called before I went to the store and asked did they have season 4 in stock and the lady said No???
So I can't get it from Amazon right now because I started working again and I won't be here to get it from UPS
I don't live anywhere near Best Buy
So my only hope is Ebay at this point. I did get season three from Amazon but I was not working and was here to receive the DVD from UPS.
I tried lol

Everyone in my building works during the day and I would never want a package to sit in the mailbox area all day long.

After 2-3 unsuccesful attempts they will take it back to the nearest UPS center and you will have the oppurntunity to pick it up at night or on Saturdays.
JLThorpe 01-03-2013, 03:51 PM Try Barnes and Noble, if you have one near you. I found my Season 4 set there the week it came out.

The UPS center is so far from my apt that I stopped dealing with them unless I was home.
Now back in July when I orderd season 3 and UPS came to ring the bell, I flew downstairs so fast because I know they don't wait long. And I only did that at the time because I was home due to being unemployed
MRPITT 01-03-2013, 06:46 PM Ah that sucks, Not sure if there is a walmart near your apartment but they have site to store so you can have it shipped to the store and pick it up at your convenience.

You could have it delivered to your job, moms house or a friends house.

I was able to do that at my last job but not sure about this one.
MRPITT 01-04-2013, 02:34 PM I guess if you really want it you will figure out a way you seem resourceful.

yeah I just didn't want $50 staring at me for days and days so I decided to do something with it and Pizza for the NFL Weekend was my choice

That exchange reminded me of when I use to go to Circuit City for DVD sets. They never had anything I wanted and even though they had computers, the clerk would always consult a large book to see if they had the DVD in stock. Flip, flip, flip - nothing!
You could order the set from an Amazon marketplace seller. They use regular USPS unless you pay extra for faster shipping. Amazon guarantees those orders too so you can get a refund if the seller doesn't send the set in the condition you want.

I thought about treating my cousin or mom to lunch so they could take me to Best Buy but I didn't bother this time
