1316219 2012-12-03 17:30:00 Just wondering if anyone has used it?

It seems It's the only place I can get two particular dvd's i'm interested in, and they take bank deposits.

Anyone had any experience with them?

1316220 2012-12-03 17:52:00 You haven't done a search on user comments then.
They have a terrible reputation. They drop ship apparently, where from I don't know, but it takes ages, and there is no phone contact.
You email and get a form letter back and this goes on and on while your item doesn't arrive.
Eventually it may or may not.

1316221 2012-12-03 18:30:00 Yes, they dropship - from where, depends on where the supplier for the given item is. But their prices are generally competitive, and they do keep you informed of any delays in shipping. I've purchased over 150 items from them and all bar two have arrived within the original indicated shipping/delivery time, and the two that didn't I received notification from them early on that there would be delays. It even tells you on each item page, things like "Ships from USA Supplier" etc, so you can't really complain that it was dropshipped from overseas. inphinity (7274)

+1. They were very good a few years back but not any more.

eBay requires Paypal which we don't have, and it needs a credit card, which we also don't have. And i'd have to pay shipping, wheras this fishpond has free shipping, not to mention the rock bottom prices for the dvd's.

If you're happy with the price, and not in any particular hurry to get them, then by all means order them from Fishpond.
