Something tells me that I'm not getting my fourth box any time soon... I contacted them regarding the shipping and confronted them with the fact that they are selling so many of the same item in so many different stores. I'll let you know the answer, if they answer at all.

Christ I hope that didn't turn out to be some kind of scam. I jumped on one of those DBox 4's without reading ahead in the thread (I was scared it would vanish if I didn't go for it...who can blame me?)

I really hope that wasn't 60 US dollars I just flushed down the toilet for nothin' :( .

uummm don’t know how long this will be on or if it’s just a piece of miss information, but dragon box 2 is back in stock on amazon.co.uk from moviemars for £30.

I have a prediction that this is a fault at moviemars_USA I doubt that they would have more in stock considering the fact that it’s not in stock on their official website but it’s worth an attempt at an order

So glad I got my dragon box 2 already having a hard time with box 4 though .

Well I did a potentially silly thing and went ahead and grabbed one.

Still unsure about my DBox 4 from them via ebay, but, I figure that both Amazon and ebay have good enough customer service that in a worst case scenario I'll come out okay.
Best case scenario though is that I just pretty much completed my collection :D .

The price for Box 2 on Amazon, holy shit! Glad I got that one last year for around $30. I just ordered Boxes 5, 6, and 7 used, apparently in good condition, off of Amazon, each ranging from $30-$40. So glad I have all of them now :D

Hey guys, This Dragon Box 2 only has 4 minutes left and is still only at £54! Anyone who needs it try and win it ;)

EDIT:
It sold for a £54, thats around $80'ish btw. Not bad IMO.

From Movie Mars:
Hi,

Your order has been cancelled due to an inventory error in our system. I apologize for the inconvenience.
And there you have it folks, mystery solved.

I've made an order using one of the eBay links submitted earlier too, naturally y'alls will be kept posted. I've received 'feedback' already but from what you're saying, that might be the only thing I'll get...

Heh, cheers guys! I'll wait until near the end of the month, when I get more money and I might buy the fifth one. I'll hold some money in case the fourth appears.

If I were you I'd wait for him to cancel it tbh. Who knows he may find some :? Paypal have a 45 day dispute policy. If he hasn't dispatched anything after 3 business days I would than go an dispute it, and you will get your money back.
