So thats Friday to Wednesday then? Suppose the bank holiday caused some delay as I thought mine would have been here today as it was sent on Monday. Hopefully its here tommorow.

Yep I got it today, not there was a rush since I was going to save it for this weekend anyway, so I could catch up buy watching the original again.

A few do that.
You can get a pizza in 30 mins, thats because your likely to have at least 1 pizza shop with a 30 min journey time. Plus they send it to you specially. Think how much p+p would be if you had the same sort of service with a DVD or a game. Would be nice to order a game in the morning and get it with in a hour and be able to play it all day, instead of waiting a few days.

I saw Tesco and in store its £16.99 which I was annoyed about. Didnt think Argos or Dixons would be that cheap. I was on holiday so couldnt order it before I went and ordered it a few days after I got back from play.com. Think play.com would have sent it out early as I had the first LOTR about 9 days before release.

£1 cheaper, w00t
But they haven't sent it out yet.

Weekend thats why. Normally takes 2 days from being posted if say it was posted today. I ordered my copy yesterday and with in a few hours it was already packed and waiting, was posted last night. Looked at my order history and saw that most DVDs took 2 days to deliver so I should get mine tommorow. You should have got yours today but as it was a long weekend it may be delayed a day.
