That's what I've always had to do when ordering directly from them: follow up and request shipping confirmation and tracking numbers. And occasionally it takes more than once to get a response. Another customer-unfriendly thing about their website is the search function--it's quite cumbersome. So what I've learned to do is first get the UPC for anything I'm looking for, and then search their site with that. It's not the easiest place to buy from, but I HAVE gotten some good deals from them.

For what it's worth, mine did. But maybe I just got lucky. Oh yeah, and I did watch a Movie while praying to the Roman god Mars, which may have also helped.

I had the same experience in terms of receiving a PayPal payment confirmation, but not a separate MovieMars acknowledgment. When I emailed them about the status of the order, I just referred to the order number in the PayPal confirmation, and they responded within a business day or two. I think their customer service is US-based and only available on business days, so you'll probably hear back tomorrow or Wednesday, I'd imagine. Over the years, I've found with them--similar to other online retailers like ImportCDs, DeepDiscount, Caiman (a blast from the past), etc.--that it may occasionally take reaching out more than once, and there may be an occasional screw-up in terms of whether something you order is actually in stock, but they eventually make it right one way or another. See my post above in response to mjzee.

For those in the US still considering ordering this, MovieMars.com still has it for $47.83 with free shipping (and no tax). I ordered it from them (have bought a lot from them in the past), and it was packed quite well in a larger cardboard box (a la Mosaic packing). https://www.moviemars.com/ProductDetails.aspx?i=22798868

If George (Dan) hasn't already ordered it, he might want to order this set from MovieMars.com for only $48.30 shipped: https://www.moviemars.com/ProductDetails.aspx?i=22798868
