Damn..this online store has them for $21!
$21 for Evil Angel titles!?! Cheaper than anyone! I want to buy from them Ultimate Guide To Anal Sex. My question is..is it mint? New? Shrinkwrapped? Never played before? I still cannot believe the prices plus you get it ship in your hands by the driver and the shipping is not ground!
Anyone has had any experiences from them??

Excalibur has been around for a long time. They do not sell used items. Everything is 100% new direct from the studio. Excalibur has been actively dropping prices since they joined the ATD price search one month ago.
A note when browsing their site: The prices listed on their search results pages do not always match up with the prices on their product pages and in the ADT price search. You can use the ADT price search to look for products on their site and then click directly through to thier product pages. I'm not sure why their site behaves like this but it's something to keep in mind when searching on their site.

Another thing to realize is that Exalibur tacks on a surcharge of $3 per DVD you order, so even if you buy a $100 when they waive shipping, they don't waive it on DVD or LD

Torris,
Excellent point regarding the $3 surcharge. I wasn't aware of it and I didn't know that they won't do free shipping on DVD orders over $100. I'm going to contact them on Monday to figure out the details and make sure that any miscellaneous charges are incorporated into the price search results.

There is no $3 surcharge when ordering DVDs from Excalibur. Excalibur's standard US Postal Service Priority Mail shipping rate is $3 per item.
Excalibur's United Parcel Service shipping rates are $3 per item + the UPS zone delivery charge. This may appear as though there is some additional charge per DVD but that is not the case. It is simply their standard shipping rates.
It is true that Excalibur does not offer free shipping on DVD orders over $100. They only do this for CD ROM and VHS orders.
Excalibur shipping rates:
USPS Priority mail
1 item - $3
2 items - $6
3 items - $9
4 items - $12
each additional item add $3
United Parcel service:
1 item - $3 + UPS book rate zone charge
2 items - $6 + UPS book rate zone charge
3 items - $9 + UPS book rate zone charge
4 items - $12 + UPS book rate zone charge
each additional item add $3 + UPS charges
Be sure to use the order comparison feature of the ADT Price Search to include shipping charges when shopping.

In truth is it not a surcharge, but winds up being as so if you think it costs them $6 to send two DVDs that's pretty bogus to me. Compare it with their main rivals Jadedvideo who if you order 6 of anything, they waive the domestic shipping entirely
I can see where Excal couldn't do this with the cost it would take to ship out Laser Disks, but shipping three DVDs would certainly weigh less than shipping three videos. So I consider it a surcharge if you're using Excalibur to price compare. Just remember if Excal is charging $15 for a DVD, it's pretty much really $18
