I emailed them about this on Thursday and have yet to hear back... I'm very disappointed in Criterion for choosing a fulfillment center that delivers this "premium" level of shipping and customer service.
I got a single tube to hold my Pierrot le Fou poster, but the tube obviously got bent somewhere and busted open a bit. Still, there wasn't much damage to the poster itself.
I had the two Janus posters; they came in two posters tubes taped together securely with packaging tape. Everything came perfectly.
I ordered a "Grand Illusion" poster. It arrived Thursday. Paper quality is great, thick and sturdy. It looks phenomenal. I'm getting it professionally framed.
A different sort of Crit Rep finally contacted me, they're shipping me a new poster free of charge. Took a little while but I'm satisfied with how they handled their error! =D>

I placed an order for Breathless, Days of Heaven, and Under the Volcano last week. They still haven't arrived.
I called the Customer Service Line and they said they were sold out, and should be restocked soon, and my order should be shipping out on Thursday, meaning I may get it on Monday of next week at the earliest. So, no, they do not ship early.
I was initially very excited when they opened up the Criterion Online Store. Then I discovered that their discount was only 20% (not too good). But then I further discovered that during September they offered an additional 10%... So I then immediately started to figure out what the total discount would be if I combined all that with a further $50 dollars off with their over-500-purchase coupon... and pretty soon it became very competitive with DVDPlanet. The trick was to order as close to $500 without going too high over. This took me a while, but I finally managed to get my order in at $503.
But as of right now I have yet to receive the promised $50 Coupon. Is anyone else in this situation? Or have people already received their first coupons?
Also, when I first placed my LARGE $503 order I was promised that I would still be able to have a Take10 percent off on whatever I bought with the $50 once it came (since it all was intended to take place in september). If they don't honor this (since this is now november) my penny-saving calculations will be off and my inner cheapskate will will feel cheated!
