What are shipping costs supposed to be in the US for the set? And are the prices on the international shipping chart pretty set? Also, what is the deal with "If you ordered before 3/01/2002 be sure to subtract $6.95 from your estimated shipping costs"? Thanks in advance to whoever answers this. I am going to be in London as of next week so I may change my shipping address, hence my inquiry.

I am totally confused on shipping, could someone please clear this up! I thought that if you ordered before 3/1/02 you got shipping for free, so I ordered on 2/10/02. This whole time I thought my shipping was going to be free until lately when I have read people's messages about this.

Does anyone know the real answer?????

it isn't that difficult...

shipping in the US: $6.95 (I guess)
if you order before March: free shipping

international shipping: http://www.anotheruniverse.com/mscldvd/shipping.html
if you order before march: minus $6.95

Hi
I'm from Sweden and I'm also having problems with the shipping price.
The international shipping chart says that the shipping will be $18, but when I tried to order the set it first said that shipping would be $80. Later, when I tried again, it said $50.
Should I just keep trying until it goes down to $18, or...? :)

I think you can enter "MSCL" (without the " of course) as Coupon ID and the shipping costs should be reduced

they shouldn't charge a higher fee anyway

but with AU you never know...

Thanks for the tip. It did say I was entitled to free shipping when I entered MSCL, but then they wanted to charge me $49 anyway, so I clicked the pre-order box instead. That way they can add the $18 if they want. I hope it works.

This confuses me. I read the shipping to Sweden would be 18 dollars. How is it going to be paid? Do we pay when we get the set in our mail/postoffice?

Another Swede! Great!

Well I didn't pre-pre-order or whatever it's called. I just ordered it last week. (Hopefully :-)
I don't know what the order form looked like if you ordered it before, but I only got two shipping options and one was for standard shipping to Sweden, which they claimed would be $48.95 or free shipping if pre-ordering the MSCL DVD box.
I read that even though this is pre-ordering, the pre-ordering period was over, which kind of confused me and then I didn't get an answer from their customer service, so I just decided to choose pre-order free shipping.

Of course this only applies to the US, but I just figured that they would see that I'm not in the States and add the shipping to Sweden. I prefer having them add $18 afterwards, to having to deal with them trying to get them to change my shipping price.

KrokRos, have you already ordered the DVDs? And in that case, didn't your email receipt state what the shipping would be?

Marie!

I can't find any on my reciepe about the shipping but I suppose I will pay 18 dollars. If they take more I'm gonna cry.
I have no idea how it will be paid.. that's what I'm wondering about but I guess I'll find out.

The hard point is now that I'm unemployed and if it is going to be an automatic drawing from my account I can't garantee there will be any money there.

Marie - where do you live? Why don't you e-mail me j@plu.nu
