Mistake: New Walt Disney Treasures DVDs

[carpedm]

I am a Disney Magazine subscriber who was very excited to see that four new Walt Disney Treasures DVDs were going to be released. The ad in the magazine specifically stated that the DVDs would be released on Tuesday, Dec. 2nd. I have been looking forward to purchasing these DVDs from the time that I originally saw the ad. Today on Dec. 2nd I went to a number of websites looking to purchase these titles online only to find out that they will not be released until May 25, 2004. I have to say that I am very disappointed with Disney for making this mistake. It is incredibly frustrating to be excited about a product only to be pushed off for another five months. My advice to Disney DVD/Magazine is to make sure your information is reliable and correct before printing and advertising it to the public.

I was surprised to see the advert in the Disney Magazine because I had read online that they DVDs were being delayed. I guess it was too late to pull the ad.

I too was looking forward to these DVDs. I guess I'll just have to settle for Pirates of the Caribbean.

I love the Boardwalk

The announcement in the Disney magazine was not a mistake. They had planned on releasing the DVDs in Decemeber. The problem was that demand was much, much greater than expected and the could not find the manufacturing capacity to make enough DVD's to meet the pre-orders, much less stock store shelves. Apparently there are so many DVD's coming out this year from various companies that the DVD manufacturers are having trouble keeping up. Becuase of this, Disney decided to hold off shipping until the can be sure they will have enough DVDs to meet demand.

I too love the boardwalk,m but I am somewhat confused here. Did two threads mate to produce this one? The poll seems to have nothing to do with the topic.

Maybe they are selling the Disney Treasures DVD at your favorite resort???

I too was disappointed to learn the releases had been delayed. I would have been even more disappointed had I not read about this on line some time ago. The company "line" is that the demand far exceeded the available supplies so they postponed the releases until late May. Funny, I always thought "limited edition" meant they might run out of stock before everybody got one

Count me among the disappointed.
Went all the way to the Disney Store to hear they had been delayed. I had counted on them for part of DH's present......as usual.

Now I need more ideas.

You don't have my favorite, so I didn't vote.
Port Orleans French Quarter or Port Orleans Riverside.
