I was trying to invoke adultdvdnow's price match system with some Private DVDs since DVD Overnight sells them at $19.99. the guys at adultdvdnow didn't want to honor that because they said that Overnight sells used copies.
When I pointed out the boilerplate info from Overnight's website that they sell only new copies, the guy from adultdvdnow claimed that this was a lie. That DVDOvernight just shrink wraps rented titles, which explains their low prices. They claimed that even Overnight's distributors admitted as such.
Now I have ordered once from Overnight and it certainly appeared to me that I was getting new product. Anyone else know anything further? Someone is lying....
BTW - adultdvdnow, to their credit, honored my price match this time. I plan on emailing DVD Overnight and ask them about this.

Torris,
For what it's worth, I've ordered a few Private titles through DVD Overnight and they all appeared to be in pristine condition.

I am a new user and registered myself just to add a comment. First off, I think this site is great since I can compare for the lowest prices for adult dvds. I found two new dvds (virtual sex genre) and bought them at AdultDVDNow. They are not the cheapest there, but I knew that they had the lowest price guarentee. At first I was suspecious because I don't know whether they are going to honor that, after all the price difference on both of the dvds I ordered were only cheaper by 7 cents elsewhere. I ordered and I got no response on whether they honored it or not. But just when I thought otherwise, I got my first dvd in two days and the request for the price guarentee is highlighted. Later, I called them (I guess I was a little too impatient) about my second dvd. The nice customer service told me that it will arrive soon. All I have to say is that I am extremely happy with this site and will continue to do business with them.
These are their benefits...
--Lowest Price Guarentee
--Ultra fast delivery
--Excellent customer service
--(Bonus) Buy 5 get 1 free (Although I don't know which ones I could get for free so if anybody knows...)

Just a quick clarification from the horses mouth: We at DVDOvernight.com will never sell a used DVD to a customer and try to pass it off as new. Our online rental fullfillment is a handled from a completely different inventory from that of sales. This unfortunate claim from another site is completely false and unfair. Those who have purchased a title in the past from us can attest to this. If anyone has any questions about this, please feel free to contact us direct at info@dvdovernight.com and we'll be happy to get back to you. False rumors generated from other sites really do no one any good and just end up creating confusion. Just thought everyone might wish to know.

I have to back DVD Overnight up here, as they have only ever sent me new disks. I believe adultdvdnow may just be too cheap accept the pricematch as they should.
I'm pissed, as I was just waiting for DVDO to start selling the Tatiana films, so I could use the pricematch!
I'd like to hear someone from dvdnow back up these claims! They could be right!

I'm glad to see Chris from DVDO weigh in. I suspected as this post says that adultdvdnow doesn't like having to price match (less a dollar!) on Private. I think adultdvdnow doesn't see how DVDO can sell them new at that price and make money. Maybe they don't. Maybe it's a loss leader for their rentals.

'Now claimed that they had information direct from Overnight's distributors that this is true. And just b/c a title is shrink wrapped that's not an indication of new. You can go to any Kinko's and get something shrink wrapped but I still believe Overnight based on my experience with them.
I like adultdvdnow's price match b/c it makes it convenient to order all titles on one order, instead of shopping around and paying shipping for each order. But if they don't want to price match Overnight, that's fine. I'll just buy all Private direct from Overnight. 'now certainly denied that they were unwilling to match the price b/c of it's low cost, but b/c of them selling used product as new.

Hey Torris!
I've just made an order with adultdvdnow for some more DVDs, including 3 private ones and I also used the price beating from dvdovernight's prices.
I had no problems whatsoever with them matching the prices, I don't know if it's because I've been ordering from them regularly, or perhaps you just got someone on a bad day or what, but I've never had -any- problem with them price beating stuff for me..
I don't know, as you said, their low price guarantee makes it much easier to just order from them, and I've personally always had good service from them..
ah well, that's my experience

Jay here from Adult DVD Now. We have a low price guarantee policy, however, we do not price match on used DVDs.
Some sources told us that DVD Overnight shipped used DVDs that they had rented. Thus, for a limited time, we did not price match DVD Overnight.
After discussing the problem further with the owner of DVD Overnight, we come to realize our sources may be unreliable, as DVD Overnight states they ship new DVDs.
So, we appologize to DVD Overnight and our customers for this falacy. At this point, we are honoring our Low Price Guarantee policy with DVD Overnight.
I hope this puts an end to the confusion. Thank you.

It's nice to see this rectified but wouldn't the more professional way of doing things have been to do a little more investigating? Even going so far to just deny the pricematch and explain to the customer that they can't pending investigation or some such comment rather than spreading potential lies.
Don't get me wrong I'm glad to see this resolved but perhaps a different approach is in order for any vendors in this scenario because I'm sure this will happen again with someone else.
