Signed up and picked the 3 out at a time. Even if I only get a couple things in the end it was free so I won't complain!

another thanks to the OP for this find, apparantly they have a sorting facility in KC, MO, so i got my first 3 movies in 1 day, already watched 2, sent them back, another 1 will be here tomorrow. i figure after a couple weeks ill start getting that "phantom" day long delay like netflix used to do. until then im gonna be living at the PO.

Hasn't BB fallen off the edge of the earth yet?

5 days and not a single game on my list has shipped from them yet

No wonder theyre going under

That might be the case for you but I am literally getting a new movie every 2 days. Send it back on Monday I have a new movie in my hands on Wednesday. I won't gripe about that at all. I've only managed to get one game from them so far but the kids love it so I can live with it for free.

With this shipping speed I could easily pull off 9 movies per week.

not worth it... their game selection is soooo outdated!!! seriously, they should be out of business by now.

What a bunch of crap. Just went in to exchange my 3 movies and included a 2.99 per day game in my instore exchanges and was told the exchange program only covers 1$ per day games. WTF !!

So I exchanged it for a 2.99 per day Blu Ray rental. Are the idiots at Dish smoking crack !!

(p.s of course the real reason is that they are undersupplying the remaining stores with games, and I bet late fees on games far outweigh late fees on movies). 27 Days left on my free month and then it's bye, bye again BB.

No worse than Gamefly in my opinion. I could never get any new games on gamefly at all. It was always older games. Hence why I finally cancelled them. They were worthless to me. At least with BB I get first run movies too so I don't feel like I am wasting my money.

Yep it's only the 99 cent game rentals you can exchange for free. Otherwise you have to pay like 5 bucks to hold onto a $2.99 rental.

maybe in your free period but once you go into payment they will throttle your BIG TIME

i was doing a 3 time turn around on netflix and boom as soon as i was a paying member i fell to 1 turn around

Odds are I won't stay with BB anyway but that is interesting to hear if true. Kind of BS if they throttle the paying members.

Is Rayman Origins one of the .99 cent rentals? The local store didn't have anything in stock really....

Blockbuster I think the deal on the homepage is worth it. It's 30 days, and it's unlimited rentals in store. It includes games and movies. Hope this helps somebody out. If not, I'll just knock out the movies I want to watch from them and cancel before I get charged.

I'm going to add a bunch to my queue as well. As for the in store swaps go, this might be a good chance to knock out older games that you didn't get to play beforehand. I picked up the Force Unleashed 2 for the PS3. I owned this game twice, but souped them instantly. My copy of Driver should be here today or tomorrow.

be realistic guys, it costs about $1 in postage just to ship one disk to you and back, so how many movies/games do you think you will get when you pay $10/$20 a month? what would you do if you run netflix/blockbuster?

Provide the best customer experience possible because they are paying me to do so. I would consistently have the mindset that any one customer can cancel at any given time and I would do whatever it takes to make sure that doesn't happen.

How are you planning to do that? How do u ship movie faster without increasing your own cost? And what is the "best" customer experience when everyone wants things cheaper? Are you going to lower the monthly fee? Easier said than done.

Anyways i shipped my movies monday and got new ones today. Not too bad. Probably thats as fast as shipping can get.

I don't work for them, so that's not for me to figure out. Still, that should be number one on their agenda or any companies agenda; pleasing the customers.
