| Gargoyle Member Portland, Oregon USA 23 Posts 12/99 |  Posted - Jan 4 2000 : 8:26PMIt seems that the moderators of this forum want to quash any discussion about vendors other than FiveStar. I'll share my experience but I wouldn't expect the thread to stay open long. I have placed several orders, for both VHS and DVDs, with Excalibur. Each time I've received the correct items in a reasonable amount of time. I've contacted their customer service by phone and by e-mail and have always had a prompt and responsive reply. Their selection of DVDs is second only to Adult Empire and their prices are very competitive. The only consistant negatives are their relatively high shipping charges (which are waived for orders over $100) and their painfully slow web servers. Too be fair, I have also had excellent service from FiveStar and their prices are considerably lower on some DVDs. I'll continue to buy DVDs from both of these sites. [Link] |

| alanbenson Member Lompoc, CA USA 156 Posts 11/99 | Posted - Jan 4 2000 : 8:43PM I'm one of the moderators here (over on the queer forum) so you may think I'm biased about all this, but... I've never gotten the slightest indication that anyone here was trying to limit the forum discussions or vendor evaluations to one set group of "partners"... Where did you get that impression? From the locked thread below? If so, I suspect that you misunderstood. The only thing the moderators were (and are) trying to do is to have each sub-forum designed for a specific kind of subject. We're hoping that consumer evaluations of vendors will end up in the sub-forum marked "SHOPPING". That's all. When the moderators move a topic to a new location, it shows up as a "locked" topic in the old one. If fact, that may happen to this one too, if the purpose of the thread is to discuss your experiences with Excalibur... Believe me, Steph and company know perfectly well that in order for this site to grow and become a respected consumer resourse, that censorship (or discouraging free discussion of any site) is completely wrong and counter-productive...<small> [This message has been edited by alanbenson (edited January 04, 2000).] [Link] |

Adult DVD Talk at your service. 6409 Posts 11/99 | Posted - Jan 4 2000 : 9:10PM We want feedback on all retailers - we just want it in the proper forum. We've been working really hard on a system for you guys to input online store reviews (similar to the DVD reviews database.) I'm moving this thread to the shopping forum, but please continue it there. [Link] |

| alanbenson Member Lompoc, CA USA 156 Posts 11/99 | Posted - Jan 5 2000 : 11:58AM From what I can see, it's an extremely well-written and designed site, incorporating VHS and DVD, mainstream Hollywood movies & porn... It looks like an odd assortment of catagories: mainstream Hollywood titles in both formats, then movies with particularly gay appeal, then gay porn in VHS & DVD... Did I miss a straight porn section? (I see button ads for Playboy...) [Link] |
| Janitor Retired Porno movies, sexy videos, xxx. Adult DVD Talk at your service. 6409 Posts 11/99 | Posted - Jan 5 2000 : 12:21PM it is a great site. but did you see xxx titles? is their erotica soft porn? [Link] |
| alanbenson Member Lompoc, CA USA 156 Posts 11/99 | Posted - Jan 5 2000 : 12:46PM A worthy site for generalized research, I'm thinking, but I'm not sure about competitive prices... [Link] |
| HoustonDon Member Houston 561 Posts 11/99 |  Posted - Jan 6 2000 : 11:42AMGranted, if the store in question wants banner space here, they need to become an affiliate and compensate Steph accordingly. I would like to remind people that it has not been uncommon for companies to register and spam the heck out of these forums-Geoff on DVDTalk and Steph have run into this more than once. This isn't the same thing as the zealot "the store I use is greater than God" postings of a few well known DVDTalk regulars (Suo the Shill comes to mind). If a company rep identifies him/herself as such and places a small "come check us out" post here, that's okay. Especially if they offer a coupon or discount. (hint hint) For the record, I think you might be getting a little defensive regarding the moderators' actions here and you might want to review the responses you've received from them a few more times. Good luck [Link] |
| Gargoyle Member Portland, Oregon USA 23 Posts 12/99 | Posted - Jan 6 2000 : 1:19PM I clearly screwed the pooch when I hinted that the moderators of this site had shown any favoritism for a few XXX DVD sites. I saw those threads closing in the 'general discussion' forum, didn't read thoroughly enough to know that they had only been moved and jumped to an unwarranted conclusion. Mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa. I can only apologize so much before it becomes obscene. I've already surpassed my limit of ass-kissing for this year! I am sorry and that's my final word on the subject. [Link] |

| HoustonDon Member Houston 561 Posts 11/99 | Posted - Jan 7 2000 : 9:23AM a) they provide a good selection at reasonable prices-preferably good discounts b) they provide excellent, fast, courteous service to their customers c) they are an affiliate (it sure can't hurt) Now "c" sounds greedy and self-serving but if you think about the conditions a company must meet to become an affiliate (primarily, meeting "a" and "b" above), it's okay. I don't buy nearly as many adult dvd's as "regular" dvd's but I have bought almost every one of them through affiliate links from here and geoff's site. There are a lot of valid reasons for this, not the least of which is the "seal of approval" each site gives (and the corresponding power we have as a group). (how was that Steph? [Link] |
