ADV Films?

[hsapiens]

Has anyone ordered DVDs before from ADV Films? They've got this unbelievable sale on Farscape, Andromeda, and Mutant X. (Thanks for the heads up, rydra_wong!) I'd loaded up my cart with 4 seasons of Farscape and 2 of Andromeda when I see this at checkout:

All Sales are Final. Unless otherwise noted, defective products may be returned within 14 days of purchase, for EXCHANGE or IN STORE-CREDIT ONLY. NO REFUNDS. A 10% restocking fee may apply. Shipping charges are NOT refundable.

Products offered through this sale are clearance and close-out items. As such, product bar codes will be reconfigured, replaced or physically altered (including by means of cutting, punching or drilling). Some products may be open box. Some products may be delivered without full retail packaging. Except as expressly provided otherwise, products are sold as-is.
...
1. ALL SALE ITEMS. Please allow 1 - 4 weeks for processing and shipping due to high sales volumes.

At these prices, I can accept that I won't have a bar code on the sets and I don't really care that it might come minus an insert...but those return policies make me leery of getting scratched, "as is" discs delivered a couple of weeks past the time when they'll even reluctantly consider accepting an exchange where I pay shipping and possibly a restocking fee. :|

That flu that's rampaging through Texas, Oklahoma, and Arkansas right now? It sucks. Big, big time.

Do *anything* you can to keep it at bay. I fought off a nasty round of something earlier this winter using Zicam. Don't know *why* I didn't use it when this crud started.

The first week I was sick it felt like I was fighting off a cold. Not really sick but at the edges. The next week, I thought I had finally come down with a cold, then I thought I had laryngitis, then I thought I had bronchitis -- finally I figured it was probably a particularly aggressive flu. I saw on CNN today that the flu is raging in this area.

Loverly. I think mine might have just been the delights of menopause. :-) Fever and chills or just hot flashes and night sweats?

Full blown fever and chills, aching joints, hypersensitive skin, burning off medication too early, hacking cough (I still sound like early emphysema), and no voice for most of this week. I can talk again for short periods of time today. :) And sit upright at the computer. It's a glorious thing.

Upright is a goodness.

Feel better soon.
