Just a quick anti-note to all of the complainers lately. I have not had any problems with fivestar or empire. They've both shipped out in a reasonable period and have answered any questions I have. I personally prefer empire due to the appearance of their site and the amount of the kickback, but both have worked well for me so far.

BTW: If anything the only shopping related complaint I could ever have is the lack of coupons or more realistically, the lack of will on my part to stop buying so many damn things.

I haven't yet purchased from Fivestar, though I might someday soon.

I have purchased from DVDempire, and have had absolutely no problems with them, except for a few occasional quirks. I even returned two DVDs for a prompt credit to my card, which I then used on a better title.

I have also had a few pleasent experiences with DVDadvantage, especially when they have sales.

Those are the only two stores I have purchased from, but someday I will probably purchase from every store listed on this website.

oh, I like to order from DVDempire because I am in Nu Jerzee, and they are in Pennsylvania, so I usually get my in-stock orders within 3 days, sometimes 2, with Priority mail.

I do all my US ordering with Fivestar and can't say anything bad about them. They offer a great way of international shipping where they ship via denmark to germany which is very important for me cause the customs don't check these shippings. Only one in about 10 shippings get lost and they shipped it again. Only had to pay for the shipping, which is only fair. Their support is very fast. Get replies from Ethan in minutes sometimes! They have the cheapest prices on most titles and their stock gets better each day. So Fivestar please keep on your good work

Unlike some, I have yet to have a problem with any of the affiliates. In the past I've used:
5 Star
Empire
XRent
DVD Exotic
Action
GlobalFlix
DVD Advantage
Laser's Edge
Gamelink
Adult DVD Now

Now I use 5 Star, Advantage, Empire, and Exotic almost exclusively. Why those? One word: KICKBACKS! Those stores seem to do a little more for Adult DVD Talk by offering Kickbacks, so I give them my business.

I've used DVD Advantage a few times, mainly because they had some very excellent sales, and still do. Great service, though the shipping can be slow or expensive (but that was already explained to me why). But sometimes you can't pass up such good deals.

I made my first online purchase from AdultDVDempire, and it was pleasurable enough to make me buy a whole lot from them. I get my packages fast, which is always great.

I am seriously considering 5StarDVD for some future purchases.


I would love to see some more stores join the Kickback program, seeing is how I've purchased from only stores that do offer Kickbacks. And let me say, I was so f**king happy when DVD empire joined the program.

Nothing better than buying porn, and in about one month, seeing credit sitting there so you can buy more porn.

Getting money back on products I regularly purchase is even more of an incentive to buy more. Gotta love Kickbacks!!!

I've had nothing but positive experiences so far too. I've purchased from Fivestar(I've bought two discs and had them cancel an order for a backordered item) and just recently DVDAdvantage. The Package from DVDAdvantage was simply labelled as from "Advantage" and came UPS. It was very secure(plenty of tape). Even once I got the flaps opened there were some packing worms and the reciept folded on top of the DVD so it was well concealed. I placed an order for Coming To Beverly Hills at Laser's Edge but it's backordered(probably because it was like 8 bucks). We'll see how my experience with them is. Overall, I'm very happy with my shopping experiences. It's great that these online companies are good to shop with. I'd probably never feel comfortable buying an adult DVD in person so it's good that I've got a more anonymous option.
