Darn. I thought we were just joking around here. Have fun!

Now, where did I put those green markers…

Haha, I’m just playing around.

Are you actually going to Comic Con? Color me jealous, if you are.

Have you tried explaining to them how different folks are having way different results than their expectations?

I’m presuming you have valiantly tried to make them see that light. They are poorly programmed dolls!

Awesome update Sciffan. Thanks.

Latest update:

I continue to correspond with foxshop@mailca.custhelp.com with no luck so far. I’m getting the standard reply that their website is secure. I notice that since yesterday afternoon that they have only sold 4 DVD sets and no Blu-Ray sets. Current available count DVD – 2073 and Blu-Ray – 2214.

No, that sounded like an offer to me.

I’m a nerd, I don’t have any friends. lol

Is there any content difference between this SE and the one your pre-order from amazon? shiny numbered packaging isn’t much of a selling point to me.

If you go to their foxstore.com and try to buy anything else on their site, you get a normal add to basket and then proceed to checkout which gives a URL like this:

https://secure.foxstore.com/checkout.php?p=1

Compare that to this

http://dollhouse-comiccon.foxstore.com/checkout/step1?format=dvd

which is the page you enter all of your credit card information on!

I think the network people just got lazy and didn’t set this up properly, after all it’s only 5000 copies….

I got another call from Fox. They said that the site would go to https when you submit. I therefore entered correct looking, but fictitious data. It validated the credit card number as declined, but the URL never changed to https. I think the lady I have been speaking to has been fed a line by the network staff that is not true. Does anyone else think this is a good place to submit your full name, email, postal address, credit card number, expiration date, credit card security code, and phone number?

I called the number and they said they could not accept orders via the phone or via fax. I asked to speak to a supervisor and I did get a call back within half an hour. However, she said that her network techs told her that they were using SSL on their backend servers. Of course, they HAVE to use SSL to communicate with the credit card processing companies to verify your credit card information. They are still not securing the submission of information from the client (us) and their (fox) web site. Here is a link regarding the difference between http and https

BUT GANG, they do indicate if you know someone who is going, you can designate them…

( no, i’m not offering, just saying.)

scififan – I thought I saw a phone number somewhere thereabouts on the site… dig around a little…

So this number is useless for ordering?:

“Ordering Problems? Call 888-223-4369, we are actively addressing all issues.”

If it’s not a secure site, I’d definitely have issues with it… good observation scififan.

The foxstore site the you order the DVD/Blu-Ray from is not secure! It doesn’t use SSL (https) and there is no way to order via phone or Fax. Any credit card information you send is completely in the clear and wide open for interception. Tech support seems to be unconcerned. You may want to avoid until/if they come to their senses and implement this most basic security feature.

I LOVE THE SHOW,BUT YOU KNOW WHEN THE PEOPLE GET WIPED AND GET SENT OUT TO BE WHORED AROUND..WHEN A PERSON IS MADE TO DO SOMETHING HE OR SHE IS NOT CONSENTING TO DO AGAINST THEIR WILL(SEX WITH CLIENTS) ISNT THAT RAPE?

Why would you tell me this? I can’t possibly make it to Comic-Con.

Actually… Would who ever is going, from Screen Rant, be willing to buy it on my behalf? I’ll pay you back.
