OldSchoolWrestling 0 Report post Posted November 19, 2003 IIRC it was at the end of a WCW Saturday Night so yeah, definately would have been a short match. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DrVenkman PhD 0 Report post Posted November 19, 2003 Does anyone know if Amazon.ca takes forever to ship things? I'm not objecting to paying the US price if it means I can get it at the same speed I have received stuff from Amazon before, but if the Canadian Amazon is just as fast (but the idea that it's an "Import" makes me think it's not), I'll just order from them.

DrVenkman PhD 0 Report post Posted November 19, 2003 screw it, Amazon.com is down to $25, which with the stronger Canadian dollar is about what they'd be charging me on Amazon.ca for an import. Ordered and on the way! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iliketurtles 0 Report post Posted November 19, 2003 Even though I've had it on tape for a while, the Ric Flair plane crash Confidential segment is one of my favorites ever. The music flows great and it's a great interview with Flair/Crockett...and it's also a remarkable story. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iliketurtles 0 Report post Posted November 19, 2003 (edited) Man that "Day in the Life of a Horseman" promo is skipping like crazy. Fuck. I think I might be taking this back...I don't want a fucking DVD that skips. And WTF? There's this scratch on Disc 3 that I just noticed when putting it back in. Yeah I hate FYE and I believe this is going to be exchanged. Edited November 19, 2003 by HartFan86 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iliketurtles 0 Report post Posted November 19, 2003 Let me mention about how awesome the Starrcade 1983 buildup is from the press conferences to the $25,000 bounty to the press conference, to Race/Flair's reactions, etc. Awesome stuff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest MikeSC Report post Posted November 19, 2003 Let me mention about how awesome the Starrcade 1983 buildup is from the press conferences to the $25,000 bounty to the press conference, to Race/Flair's reactions, etc. Awesome stuff. Actually, I missed how much I really liked the old lighting of the NWA. Re-watch that Flair v Windham brawl from Columbia, SC. That took place at the Township, where I watched matches as a wee child. It is the SMALLEST ARENA ON EARTH. I mean, it's tiny. If it holds 1,000 people, I'd be amazed. There is a HUGE stage on one side of the building that they didn't show that I noticed (no small feat, considering that the auditorium was BUILT to house plays). The lighting made it look like a decent-sized civic center, instead of the tiny drama theatre it was. -=Mike Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They're usually very good with shipping times although they did change the Flair DVD times. At first it said "Usually ships within 2-3 days" but that's now changed to "1-2 weeks". My order said it's supposed to ship on Nov. 21 so I'm praying it does. But as Chris said a few posts up no exchange and no duty makes it well worth it to order from Amazon Canada.
