I hope they will offer courier/express service for International orders soon.

Still waiting as they have the best price around.

What a nice bit of news.. Ive always ordered from AdultDVDNow but this has made me think twice. Maybe next time I'll give FiveStar a whirl.

Using AdultDvdTalks kickback program I rhink I'll be impressed.

The same goes for me.
After having lowered the international shipping rates I guess FiveStar is the first choice now for international customers, and using the Kickback-program can reduce shipping costs to an absolute minimum. Combined with the quite good prices on many titles makes me think more than twice about ordering at ADN again. Well... Actually there are a few vids on my wishlist which Fivestar doesn't carry yet while ADN does. Maybe I'll order those few titles at ADN, but on the other hand... Maybe I'll wait until Fivestar carries them as well.

If there's a title that you want but a store doesn't list it yet just drop them a note. Chances are that they already have the new title in stock but haven't had a chance to add it to their site yet. New titles have been coming out at a rate of 150 - 200 per week lately. It's very difficult for a store to keep up without increasing their staff.

Most stores are on "auto ship" with many of the studios. That means that every time a studio releases a new title they ship a minimum quantity to the store. These auto shipments can quickly lead to a backlog titles awaiting data entry. Even if a store doesn't have an unlisted title in stock, they can ususally get them up within a few days after hearing from an interested customer.

heheh.. good move there by 5-star, and good timing as well, since they're one of the stores that has one of the best CS reps on here....

cheers,

Hi Drew,

unfortunately the films on my wish list are made by a studio not available at all at fivestar. And even if an online retailer carries films of a studio I often happen to miss new releases of that studio at a store for weeks or months or maybe they never arrive.
For example after reading some great reviews I'd like to have ordered some films from Jake Steed Productions which isn't available on fivestar.
I also heard some good things about Devil's Films releases. Fivestar doesn't carry that studio either, though.
ADN carries Jake Steed-Films. On the other hand only 2 extreme associates titles have been available there for months, and it doesn't seem they would increase. Also the last time I took a look ADN only carried 1 Devil's Films title, which had been the case for an eternity also.
I'm afraid in a case like this there's no point in asking if a title is in stock.
