I'm pissed the hell off. Whatever genius took my preorder at FYE apparently screwed it up, so when I went up to FYE, I was told that no one ordered the DVD, they had none in stock, and it would take about a week to get me the DVD I ordered damn near a week ago. Honestly, I'm seriously considering just writing the 5 bucks I paid as a loss and going to Best Buy to try to find it.

If you look at Amazon.com right now and the look at the sales stats for the Chikara DVD for today, it's ranked #14 in Sports/Wrestling, beating all TNA DVDs and many WWE and UFC DVDs.

Ordered it today from Amazon.com, and preordered the WSX DVD at the same time. Both'll be here at the end of the month.
Unfortunately, they're Christmas presents.

According to the Best Buy website, it's only available online. My local FYE didn't have it either. I might just wait to see if Larry Sweeney is selling it along with his lucha masks and shirts at the IWC show this Saturday.

Yeah, its not going to be on Best Buy shelves, just online. I would imagine its going to be difficult to find it on actual store shelves many places, based on where recent Big Vision releases from SHIMMER and FIP have(n't) been found. But they're out there in some places.

Just got my copy in the mail from Amazon. And with a Chuck Taylor trading card to boot. Thoughts on the DVD forthcoming. I got a Hydra trading card, I can't decide who got the cooler one lol. |

You'd suspect it'd simply be scaring kids, but Sexy Chuckie T has bigger fish to fry. Now "Throwing Invisible Grenades at Unsuspecting Children", that's where it's at. Still, a Hydra card IS pretty awesome. Really wonder which ones the others will get once their copies come in. |

I want all of them, especially the Hydra card (And Mantis, if you can get one). |

Oh, and I just further supported CHIKARA by ordering Cibernetico & Robin, Running in the Red and Crushing Weight of Mainstream Ignorance, making my total of CHIKARA DVDs 9. I can't wait for them to arrive, hopefully they'll get here before the season finale. |

I'm pretty sure the complete set is availible online at CHIKARAPro.com...check...because it is a whole helluva a lot cheaper than buying multiple DVDs. Also, I got Hydra in mine just for any one who is wondering. |

...yeah, if I'm gonna be ordering CHIKARA stuff off the internet, I'll go to SmartMarkVideo.com
If I see it in a store I'll buy it. But the thing that was supposed to be so great about this DVD was that I could get it at Best Buy or wherever.

Do you think Best Buy would have it?
I'm just wondering if I should bother going to Best Buy today.
Also, I can't seem to get the DVD on SMV.

They are reporting some availability problems at Best Buy due to some kind of mistake in the ordering process, and that some of those shipments have been temporarily delayed. This is coming from the Chikara blog.

Sheesh. Best Buy can't get ANYTHING I want in on the right day. Happened with the Samoa Joe DVD too.

Also, even though it's not TECHNICALLY the DVD in question, it's a Chikara DVD, so I'll post it here. Here's the cover to the New Star Navigation DVD:  |

Awesome cover. Ophidian needs to add a tail to his outfit just so he can do that move.
