Hi.
I'm going to buy my first batch of adult DVDs, but was considering Excalibur simply because they claim you can trade any DVD ever purchased from them for a different one at any time for $1 plus shipping. That sounds too good to be true. Is it? Also, do they ship in original packaging?
Otherwise, I'm going to order from Five-Star (I wish I could find that $10 off coupon everyone keeps talking about).
Thanks!

Oops.
I just realized this post probably belongs in the other forum. Sorry about that. I will repost there. But would really appreciate some help.
Thanks.

If you would have been visiting ADT a week and a half ago, the coupon would have still been here. It died on the 17th. I used it three times thanks to Five Star's permission.
What you have to do is make sure you get a glimpse of ADT's bargain page or homepage every once in a while, there you will find the goodies.

I can't speak from experience, since I've never used Excalibur's exchange service, but I see a few possible gotchas when reading the fine print:
* There is a list of selected titles that you can exchange FOR, a limited subset of what they offer for sale. So it does not mean that you can exchange any title for any other title, but any title for one of the ones on their list. I'd give you a URL for this list, but I don't have it bookmarked and it took a long time to locate it on their web site last time I looked for it.
* You have to pay three times for shipping (once on the initial order, once to return the DVD to Excalibur, and once again for the second DVD).
* I may be wrong, but I don't know whether there is any guarantee that the DVDs you receive from the exchange program are new, not used.
* The main value for this particular exchange program is not to get stuck with an absolutely horrendous disc. It's not set up to be a true exchange program or a rental program. With the costs of DVDs as cheap as they are today, it doesn't appear to be as valuable as when porn was really expensive and hard to get.
Just my two cents,
Saki
