Let me know if yours are the next time you get them. <BR/><BR/>As for where I return them. I've retruned them directly to the post office itself with no better service. Maybe try a completely different post office?

I think they actually scan them at the post office.<BR/><BR/>Interesting on the games.

I actually sent an e-mail to Blockbuster to see if I could and they replied that it was costing them too much money and so they stopped.<BR/><BR/>As for turnaround time, I don't know what's going on there. The center is in Santa Ana, just like it is for Netflix, and so I have no idea why they receive my movies late and I don't get them back in a timely manner. It kind of annoys me somewhat so I will have to see if it stays this way.Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05968106816295892826noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6813426.post-1127318710160710512005-09-21T09:05:00.000-07:002005-09-21T09:05:00.000-07:00I think Netflix is decitful because they advertise...I think Netflix is decitful because they advertise "Unlimited" rentals but it isn't. They think Unlimited ends at 12. After 12, they begin to throttle you. If you read the fine print, they say they have a right to deterimine who gets priority and they will exercise that right. I don't like companies that rely on fine print to screw their customers over. Now, my service was probably better overall with Netflix than Blockbuster but at least its bad for everyone else too and Blockbuster isn't trying to screw the customers (at least not yet) who cost them more money but are probably their loudest proponents/critic.Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05968106816295892826noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6813426.post-1127314346153896432005-09-21T07:52:00.000-07:002005-09-21T07:52:00.000-07:00Your coupons aren't good for games?

I've never tried to rent a game with them so it wouldn't bother me if they don't work.

So far I like it, but it does put a little strain on me having to make time to watch movies during schoolwork. I think the thing that stresses me out is thinking I have to watch my movies super fast so that I can send out for another (to get good ROI, even though it wasn't my I), but I guess their policy is that I don't have to worry about watching them quickly.
