I just signed up with them for rentals. It's $20 a month and you get 3 DVD's at a time, and then 3 DVD's when you return those, and so on and so on.

Does anybody who have used them know how their shipping is? They said they shipped on 7/29, so when should I expect them by?

Oh dear.

I don't want to be Mr. Negative, but you might want to look around the Shopping Info forum for several threads about ADE's rental service. Like this one.

Jagerclown, I expect this will get moved to the shopping forum as that is designed for threads like this. And, as Obibong pointed out, there are threads there already that most likely would have answered this question for you.

The real question is this: After you return your first discs, how long after that can you expect to wait for the next ones? And how low on your list will the next title be?

Let us know if they've improved. I wish you luck.

Hmm, I was afraid of that, because just by doi9ng simple math $20 a month seems impossible. Even using the lowest rate shipping, it would cost them $4 per shipment and even if I just do 2 a month, it's gonna be $8 which leaves only $12 for them while I get 6 DVD's. If I get 3 shipments it's even lower.

No, you're just getting the disc, so it just comes in a flat paper envelope. The shipping cost is probably negligible.

The same system works very well at xrentdvd.com and bushdvd.com.

I used XRent and I know the type of envelope. I was just adding in the cost to ship it back which they pay for.

I hope they make money and I get fast shipments, because tomorrow is Monday and they shipped it on Thursday morning.

I just got them today, so it took 3 mail days and a Sunday to get here. I can live with that. Curious to see what happens when I ship them back.

Thanks, I think they may have been improved because I got:

Elastic Assholes
Feeding Frenzy 4
NCDA 3

Which are either new titles or still hot rentals, so maybe they fixed some of their problems.

Just posting that I mailed back the DVD's today. I'll let you know when they ship out my next order.

P.S. If the DVD's at the top of my list say "Short Wait", are they gonna actually wait until it's in before shipping them to me, or are they gonna ship the next ones on my list?

Bit strange, I mailed back the 3 DVD's on Monday and on the site, it says that only 2 have been returned. They were all mailed at the same time.

Maybe they are in the middle of updating or something.

I'll let you know when they ship the next 3.

sometimes the u.s. mail is slow. things like that will happen even if you ship them @ the same time.

Wow, my titles shipped already.

We Swallow 4
Cum Swapping Sluts #7 (Teagan & Eva Angelina)
Share the Load

Once again, pretty new and popular titles too. I expect to get them on Monday. Still, at least 6 DVD's in a month for $20. Maybe 9 if I returned them quicker.

Seems good so far, hopefully they have improved.

Got my DVD's today. I expected them on Monday and was surprised. So far, nothing but great service.

Just for a mini-review, the cumshots for Teagan in Share the Load and Cum Swapping Sluts #7 were very weak and all over the place. The scenes were great because she was working with Arianna in one and the other with Eva Angelina(can't recommend this scene enough).

if you don't mind me asking jagerclown what state do you live in? it almost seems now that you are spokesman for adult video empire's rental service. it's not going to make me go back to them. i am more than satisfied with bushdvd. it's great that they (bushdvd) ship dvds two at a time & they operate their business 6 days a week. now i sound like a spokesman for bushdvd : ) .
