Yeah it's actually pretty weird my order hasn't been canceled either even though they won't be getting any stock, I wonder why that is.
If anyone has any of the DB/DBZ/DBGT or Maho Tsuaki Sally Japanese single DVD's that they'd be interested in selling send me a PM and I'll see if we can work something out. ;).

Mine hasn't been cancelled, either. I wonder why they're cancelling some orders and not others?

Maybe it's because I didn't send them a question about the status of my order? I don't know why that would make a difference though. If they don't have a supplier, they don't have a supplier and they should just let everyone know.

I have "Not yet shipped" and the estimated shipping/arrival dates are inaccurate now.
Shipping Estimate Friday May 31 2013 - Friday Jun 14 2013
Delivery estimate Tuesday July 16 2013 - Wednesday Aug 14 2013
It's already 21 June 2013 so that defeats the Shipping Estimate of 14 June and Delivery Estimate of 16 July.

I'd email them about that.

I officially give up, said to hell with it and canceled my order because it's clear that they don't have any vol 2's and my order will not be fulfilled (almost 2 months is more than enough time to ship something that isn't a preorder).

I still keep my order there (or rather, the part of it that wasn't fulfilled), since Amazon doesn't charge before shipping, so there's nothing to lose, anyway. Right now, I have boxes 1 and 4, and before I'll start with the rest of them (if I even do that), I'll just complete my Fist of the North Star collection.

Here's Amazon.ca's response:
Thank you for writing to us at Amazon.ca.

We are sorry for the delay in completing your order.

As previously mentioned, the item " DragonBall Z: Dragon Box 2 (ep.43-84)" is now back-ordered, and our supplier is not able to tell us exactly when they expect to have more in stock. I apologize that you were not notified sooner of this change.

To help compensate you for this unexpected change, I have upgraded the method of shipment for this order to Expedited at no additional charge.

Since we rely on suppliers regarding the availability of the item, we're unable to provide any precise information regarding the acquisition of the item.

I can assure you that we are working hard to obtain this item for you and we will ship it as soon as we are able to obtain it. This means that we will ship the item as soon as we receive it from our suppliers even if the estimated ship date has still not arrived.

You won't be charged until we ship it to you. On the date of shipment, we'll send you an e-mail confirming the date, contents, and method of your shipment.

If you'd rather cancel your order, I understand. To cancel your order, go to the URL below, sign in and click the "Need to cancel an item?" button:

https://www.amazon.ca/gp/css/summary/ed ... 04-7441007


In addition to a wide selection of items, one of our aims at Amazon.ca is to provide a convenient and efficient service; in this case, we have not met that standard.

Again, I am truly sorry that we were not able to fulfill your expectations for this level of service. I hope that you will give us another opportunity to prove the quality of our service to you.
Heh, they upgraded to Expedited shipping that I did not expect and at no extra cost (shipping's free thanks to them) so I'll just keep on waiting, can't say I'm displeased with Amazon.ca service despite it taking so long.

But if they don't have them, they don't have them, they should just cancel all the orders. I'm not cancelling myself as I've got nothing to lose, but it seems very strange and not at all organised. Very unlike Amazon (at least it would be for the UK version, don't know what its normally like for Amazon.ca).

I agree Amazon.ca's actions regarding vol 2 are very disorganized, they've already confirmed to one member that none of their suppliers have vol 2, so why are they not canceling all of the other orders that were previously placed?

Maybe the ones that purchased early are on the priority list.

I doubt that because the person that Amazon.ca confirmed they wouldn't be getting any stock ordered on april 27th and Amazon canceled his order.

Got an email from Amazon saying they are "still trying to obtain the item". Fingers crossed.

They canceled my order a few days ago, so you'll be extremely lucky if you get yours.

Yeah, I know which is why it puzzles me so much as to why they would keep me hanging on, but not others.

Just consider yourself and I lucky, there's no other explanation.

I'm not going to cancel my order, I'll wait patiently until the day arrives.

Is there still a market for these? Because I have the whole shebang that I'm willing to part with. (Start own thread? Yay/Nay?)

Look up the prices on eBay. Dragon Box 2 goes for $200 to $300, although the others are less profitable but still somewhere around $100+ (except DBOX 7 and such).
