ivygirl	post #1  on February 21, 2004 - 2:30 PM PST   Has anyone else seen this? I used to get my DVD's from GC in 2 days. Meaning they ship on Feb 17, a Tuesday, I'd have them in my mailbox by the 19th (Thursday). It's been happening like that since I've been a member, but not this week. There are new spiffy labels on my DVD's that say "Time Sensitive Material" (yeah, like the USPS cares) and even though they were mailed on the 17th (from GC), (yet the label says "SM Date Feb 18," uh oh! Someone's lying to me! ) I just got them today, the 21st. Boo! And I only got 1/2 of the amount I should have! USPS sucks! Did anyone else see this happen with the new postage system? Or is it just me in New Orleans? Thanks ya'll and Happy Mardi Gras!

Not only that ,just like ivygirls out of my 4 out..i only got half of what was sent ,2. All i know is i thought i would be happy to finally see the movies come in ..but instead when i saw them, it just pissed me off cause it reminded me that they are late and i should of had them back on wednesday instead of saturday. I do not know who is responsible for the very slow turnaround times lately...but if it doesnt go back to my 1 day turnaround..i know i will cancel my GC account, only because i do not want to get this aggrivated on a weekly basis knowing i am not getting the quick service i know i can and WAS getting before. So if USPS is responsible for it..they better get thier shit together or they are going to cause GC to lose a customer..and if its on GC's side.. PLEASE go back to doing whatever you were doing from when i joined GC til recently ...PLEASE ..or i hate to say it ..but i will go.
