EB - Of course I realise that CDS get their stocks from you but this is the first time I have experienced getting things from them before you. I understand you want to supply people like CDS as quickly as possible so they can deliver to fans promptly, however for my own TD items I have always liked to deal directly with you. Doing that I, perhaps wrongly, expect to get them before companies like CDS can get them delivered, and up to now I have. It does seem odd that it can take a week or more to get a registered post item from Germany. I order stuff from America and it gets here in that time. I suppose it is our wonderful Royal Mail who perhaps should be called Royal Snail to match their pace!!
I also realise lots of people download these days but, call me old fashioned, I still prefer to have the good old shiny disc and case in my hands rather than something in a file on your phone etc.
EB - Just a thought. How about a slightly earlier shipping for those that are members of the TDOC?
