In mid-February we
reported that Rhino.com's online-only single disc release of
Mystery Science Theater 3000 - The Giant Gila Monster had been delayed. Originally planned to ship on 2/5, then on 2/11, the most recent delay described the ship timeframe as "the end of February/early March." And "early March" turns out to be it! Yesterday afternoon, beginning around approximately 5:30PM Eastern time, people who had ordered this (including my wife, Stephanie) received a notice which began as follows:
"We would like you to know that your backorder/special order has shipped!"
That's going in the books as 3/5, exactly 1 month later than originally stated. So, if you have this item on backorder, then check your e-mail's inbox and see if you have gotten a similar notice. If not, then contact "Rhinorecords@thestore24.com" or call (888) 440-4232 toll-free in the USA, or else (954) 255-4160 if you're an International customer. Word is that "orders shipped via US Domestic Mail should arrive within 4 - 10 business days after they are shipped."
Thanks to my lovely wife, Stephanie, for being the first to alert me to this! We also appreciate readers Derek Martz, Fred Hinnegan and Jason Rehmel for also taking the time to send us a note about this...we appreciate it.
