"This store is great. Though the prices are not amazingly low, DVD Empire always has some sort of sale going on. They also have many used dvds for sale. The three things I love the most about DVD Empire is: 1. Live availability quotes on DVD titles 2. Free shipping 3. Fair prices"
"Good prices, very good selection and speedy service (in stock items are shipped the same day, even "free shipping" orders). However, and this is a big but, I've received "shakers" or DVDs loose in their cases (all heavily scratched) in almost every shipment. I've complained several times to customer service about this problem to no avail. Again, it happened with this latest order, and I've had to ship yet another item back for replacement. Company states they check for this problem and that it all happens "during transit". The severity and pattern of the damage tell me it isn't so. Because of this, I can no longer recommend this company, at least not for serious collectors who care about the condition of their discs. "
"I turned to DVD Empire because of a website issue with Amazon.com. I made a pre-order for a DVD, and was hoping that I would receive the DVD on or before the release date (which is the case with Amazon). That turned out not to be the case as I received the DVD a day after it was released in stores, and it cost me $5 more than the retail price, and that's not including S/H. The delay of the shipment perhaps could've been attributed to the holiday season and couriers being swamped with deliveries, but it was dissapointing to say the least. Other than that small issue, DVD Empire does seem like a good alternative to some of the more commonly used sites for DVD shopping. The prices are still competitive, and they have a wide selection. Checking the status of the order is easy as well, with all your orders (previous & current) are listed once you log in. So it isn't necessary to go looking for the order # just to find out the status. This feature is becoming more and more popular with sites, and it makes things much quicker."
"Great selection, free shipping, great prices! What more can you ask for? They even had the DTS version of "Saving Private Ryan", which I've been looking for a while! I won't hesitate to order from them again."

Which i bought for a friend this particuliar gift, but i locked out ... and i have to give his gift late, also im still waiting for it, and the tracking and confirm by USPS shows nothing id ont even know where my package is ... surely but surely ... im extremely dissatisfied and i will not use this site every again ..."
"Ordered 3 DVD-Audio discs, 2 being special orders from Europe. All arrived within 10 days and in great shape. Excellent site, good selection, top-notch customer service. Have just made a second order with them and am sure it will go as well as the last one. Make sure to sign up for their newsletter before purchasing though since it contains special coupons for purchases. Saved me an easy $10 so far :)"
"DVDEmpire has a very good selection of DVD's. I always check a few other sites; price matching and many times DVDEmpire is lower priced. I've done business with them many times before and the best thing is the fast order processing/order shipping. The product reviews are a nice touch as well."
"I saw Road to Rome on this site with a very good price, so I went ahead and ordered it on December 21, 2003 with 2-day shipping. Huge mistake. It should have arrived on December 23, but it never shipped. I e-mailed them about this, and they told me it was on "special order" even though there were at least 3 copies in stock when I ordered. Even still, special orders are supposed to arrive in 1-2 weeks. 19 days later, closing in on 3 weeks, the package was still never shipped. I finally got fed up with it and e-mailed them a nasty letter and cancelled my order. BUYER BEWARE. I've read some other reviews here and apparently a few other people experienced very similar problems, so this probably isn't such an uncommon thing to get from this company. Just be careful, it may be worth paying the extra few bucks to buy from a legit company."
