| HoldenMagroin Member Baking in the California Heat 122 Posts 2/03 | Posted - Jun 3 2003 : 11:57PM I haven't tried their Preferred program yet, but I also would be interested in hearing from those who have. Considering their wide selection, I am considering switching from Flicksmart to XRent. I have no major complaints with Flicksmart, but XRent seems to have a better selection of movies. It's a dog eat dog world and I'm wearing Milk Bone underwear.  [Link] |

| ObiBong Senior Member 1162 Posts 12/02 | Posted - Jun 4 2003 : 12:16AM I switched from Flicksmart to Xrent Preferred because of the selection, and you can't really argue with that. But so far, I've had worse luck with the shipping times. The turnaround when you return a disc has been slow, it seems; I'll cut them some slack for a while because the service is new. I also had a disc go missing, but that's probably just bad luck. YMMV. [Link] |

| BIGmike B-I-G-m-i-k-e 2335 Posts 3/01 | Posted - Jun 4 2003 : 10:56PM Astro... I'm hearing mixed reactions on XRent joining kickbacks. I glazed over that one because I have never ordered from them, but I share your sentiments Astro, about the "woohoo", and the "doh". Maybe I will order from them now, but first after I move to Georgia, which will be pretty soon. (I haven't looked at their site yet, I hope they ship to Georgia.) - - - B-I-G-m-i-k-e, over & out! - - - [Link] |
| Drew Black broken crankshaft 8009 Posts 9/99 | Posted - Jun 5 2003 : 8:15AM There are a few things that will be different with respect to Kickbacks and XRent DVD. Shoppers will only earn credit on purchases, not rentals. This includes purchases of new and/or used products. (But you will only be able to transfer new items to their store with the cart transfer.) In order to redeem credit Kickback with XRent the email address associated with your ADT Kickback profile will need to be the same one that XRent has on file or you'll need to provide ADT with the email address that you use in your XRent shopper profile. This is because XRent's credits are non-transferable and are issued to specific customer accounts. In order to issue a credit they need the customer's email address. (I assume you will have had to previously register and create a shopper profile on XRent's site in order to redeem credit but I'm not sure on that one just yet.) XRent will be offering 5%. BTW, Adult DVD Today will be joining the Kickback program very soon as well. [Link] |

| ObiBong Senior Member 1162 Posts 12/02 | Posted - Jun 5 2003 : 3:56PM How's everybody else doing with the Preferred plan? The selection wasn't as good at Flicksmart, and so far I'm much, much likelier to get the disc at the top of my queue with Xrent, but I definitely got the discs turned around quicker with Flicksmart (and with Netflix for regular discs).

| ObiBong Senior Member 1162 Posts 12/02 | Posted - Jun 6 2003 : 9:21PM The discs are fine. With all the hundreds of discs I've rented in six years, adult and non-adult, I've only ever had one that had a problem. [Link] |

| HeyNow Oblivious Gold Star Hey! 5965 Posts 1/03 | Posted - Jun 12 2003 : 2:38AM Regarding mail time, I'm in San Diego and I pretty consistantly notice just one day mail time for DVDs to and from Netflix (the mainstream DVD rental source.) I think that is to their distribution center in Santa Ana (same city as Xrent, I believe.) It takes 2 days, typically, from Nevada. Can anyone confirm consistantly getting discs in just one day from Xrent in Southern CA? [Link] |

| logan000 New Member 5 Posts 5/03 | Posted - Jul 9 2003 : 11:02PM I've had one disc go missing when I sent it back and they've been good about it when I emailed them about this. They made a note of the missing disc and sent out the next disc on the queue. Another two discs have not arrived yet and I emailed them regarding this and they said they made a note of it on my account but will wait a little longer before they say the discs are missing. I do wish they had a more "secure" way of mailing the discs for preferred customers as well as an address other than a PO box for returns. I would be really pissed if I sent back the 8 discs I rented through the program and none of them got back to them. Other than the shipping issues (for me anyway, I don't want to have to pay for discs that get lost/pilfered in the mail) Xrent is alright. [Link] |
