hi guys. I cancelled my order from another universe almost 3 months ago. last week UPS showed up at my door and dropped the dvds in my mail box. I was never charged for the dvds and another universe does not have my current credit card number. who do I contact about getting someone to come pick them up from my house? I would keep them but I already purchased the box set from deep discount dvd. thanks for any help!

I'd leave a message on AU's machine with your phone no. and/or address to have them pick it up. If they don't react in a month or two, I'd count myself lucky and sell the sucker on eBay or give it to a friend.
I would have a very, very hard time feeling like I'd do something wrong, anyway.
Oliver.

You are under no obligation to return them, nor any obligation to pay for them. I'd put them up on ebay.

Send it to Claire Danes. I hear Ross never sent her the promised copy.

I'd let Claire buy her own copy - I'm sure she can afford it! I suggest you sell the set on e-bay and count yourself lucky that you got it for free when some of us paid money and got jack s**t!

I say you put Ross' face on it and burn it in effigy.

Actually, forget my previous suggestion. I've got a better idea. Why don't you drive over to AU and shove the set up Ross Rojek's ass!

Okay, please. Somebody top that last one (though I liked the burning in effigy idea).
My suggestion is to keep it and see of they send you the bonus stuff. If they send you the bonus stuff, THEN sell it either on Ebay or to me since I'll never see the bonus disc anyway.

wow yeah if you ebay it with the bonus disk and box you should walk away with a nice chunk of change all courtesy of Ross Rojek. I guess he can be a nice guy...

Hey,
Maybe you know someone who would like the set as a gift? Best serious suggestion I can come up with. The other ones posted in this thread are more funny.
Best,

Alrighty. I'll combine suggestions. You get the bonus stuff (somewhere around 2005

), and quietly put them up for auction on something like Amazon or Yahoo auctions (less traffic).
Make the auction have a "but it now" price. Let me know about it. Whammo! I bid, win and finally get the bonus disc and lunch box. I have no problem with putting aside a second set of discs.
Clever, eh?
I love it when a plan comes together. (chomps on cigar)

p.s. Do what you feel is best with the set. I'm just kidding around.
I do think you could at least recoup your loss, if not more, in an auction if you have a full set. And honestly, I'd bid, as I didn't order from AU and I'd like to have the infamous bonus disc.
Best of luck!

I too have an extra DVD set. But i'm in the peculiar position of having paid for 2.
I cancelled with AU and bought from Amazon, but it seems that the cancellation was made during the period just prior to AU's shipping of the sets, when they were ignoring virtually all communication. Then i was among the first to get the AU set, so...
I suppose i'll just hang on to the still unpacked Amazon set until about 2020 or whenever it becomes a collector's item and i can get something for it at eBay, or whatever the hot spot is by then.
Or i might just will it to later generations.
