To quote Neville - why is it always me?

My Dark Angel season 2 DVD box arrived today (yes, you know, I can hear you laughing), and I was happy because they shipped it so quickly. I only ordered Sunday after all. Yet my delight didn't last for long as when I opened the box I realised that I got one that features two copies of Disc 5 while Disc 6 is missing.

Why, why is it always me?

ETA: Also while I'm at it, why the heck did Merry Christmas not win a Golden Globe for foreign film? Did they actually WATCH that film? *miffed*

ETA 2: ABBA rocks my socks. Always has, always will.

Mmmm...Dark Angel! I was introduced to that show by [livejournal.com profile] bardling and really liked it.

Sadly, there was no season 3... :(

I know :o(

I had been playing with the idea of buying the DVDs for a year and now that I did I got a set with missing Discs...how typical :o(

The best shows only feature one season sometimes, like Firefly (which I've never seen but I will) ...

Which reminds me, I ought to watch the rest of Firefly. Sometime when I'm not ice skating or writing to Aryana or playing my flute or practicing guitar or working on singing lullabies in two languages or sending silly things to Germany or reading books or reading magazines or buying more books or...

If it's any consolation, I'll probably never see it either - question of money I don't have :o)

I've got the box of DVDs, which were not even all that expensive here, I just have to watch them....

So, what is "not expensive" in the US? The box is about 50Euros here, that's - dunno - 55-60 Dollar?

[identity profile] beige-alert.livejournal.com 2006-01-17 09:48 pm (UTC)(link)
I think the "list price" is $50, but I got it with a 25% off deal for about $40 after tax, about...xe.com...34 EUR. Since Borders books and music sends me coupons by e-mail pretty much weekly, I almost never buy anything there for full price...

Oh wow, lucky you! 50 Euros is just too much for me, considering I don't even know whether I'll like the show...

Ah, the power of Jensen. Always makes you buy things, you don't really need...

[identity profile] legoline.livejournal.com 2006-01-17 05:26 pm (UTC)(link)
I know. But why, oh why did I have to receive the DVD box with no Disc 6 and two Disc 5's?

Life sucks?
So do you have to send everything back or just the one disk?

No idea. I sent them an email (I bought it via a marketplace seller from amazon as it came 10 Euros cheaper) and they still haven't replied. Am about to get even more pissed off.
