AllMyFavoriteShows.com Product misrepresentation

I ordered a full set of DVDs from the Scarecrow and Mrs. King series from allmyfavoriteshows.com back in May. The product didn't arrive until mid July, and while playing the first of the DVD's it was apparent that the product was an unauthorized copy (it had bits and pieces of TV commercials at the end of various episodes).

Allmyfavoriteshows.com misrepresented the product and they are selling what amounts to pirated copies.

I will not order from them again.

I recently ordered several sets of movies, paid $150 and never received anything from AllMyFavoriteShows.com. They sent me a tracking number but the post office does not have my package.

Their phone number have been disconnected as far as I can tell, and live chart support center people are telling me that my order is being processed...

Allmyfavoriteshows.com took my money, didn't email me, their website vanished so i didn't wait the 12-14 days to see if I would get the product to take action hopefully it will do some good.

Just to let other buyers know the phone number for Allmyfavoriteshows.com is the same # for DVDigniter.com. I guess some things are too good to be true.

I too was had by this company. I ordered various DVDs and was even given a tracking number. When I went to Canada Post to check on it, they had no record of it. I then called their live support and was told a supervisor would get back to me. Well, I'm still waiting... Funny, their website doesn't seem to be working either.

BEWARE of ALL MY FAVORITE SHOWS - true con artists!

I also ordered merchandise from this company, back before Christmas...I am not condoning their actions by any means but I DID finally get what I ordered...well sort of...I ordered the complete BECKER TV show...when it came it was nicely packaged in DVD cases with picutes and everything...
H O W E V E R...as we were watching them we realized that it is mearly pirated from the tv show...some of the dvds have problems, and almost ever single dvd has a repeat episode...as much as my fiance likes the show he was very disappointed in the quality of the merchandise that I gave him for Christmas...the other problem I had was like some of you, that it was hard to track and they actually took the money off my credit card twice...I have since received one of those pmts back...just thought I would throw my 2 cents into the pot.

Unfortunately, I too have been ripped off by AllMyFavorite Shows.com, aka TvAddicts.tv, aka DVDAvenue.tv, and whatever other aliases they are operating under. They shipped me the wrong discs and they assured me they would replace them with the correct ones. THAT WAS OVER 6 MONTHS AGO, and every-time I make contact with them I get an excuse, but I should not worry, I will get the replacements. Yeah, right. Lately the only answer I get from them to my emails is an auto-reply saying they'll contact me within 24 hrs. They never do.

I have a couple of ideas that I think would help rid the internet of these maggots. I have sent all of my internet contacts a detailed account of what these people did to me. I told them that I didn't know advised them to always check to see if there were any complaints about a company before ordering from them and I explained how to check. I asked them to email all of their contacts a copy of forward the email to all of their contacts and asked them to forward to their contacts, on so on. If everyone who has been ripped-off took the same action, in a very short time, nearly everyone on the internet would be warned about these maggots.

To my surprise, many of my contacts emailed me back that they had no idea that you could check out complaints about a company on-line! That then gave me another idea.

I thought that, if Google, Yahoo and the other internet providers would place a prominent advisory right on their desktops advising internet shoppers that they can check to see if a company has any complaints about them before they ordered, and maybe provide a search-bar right in that warning box, it would save thousand of uninformed shoppers millions of dollars, and deal a major blow to these maggots who are ripping us off.

How many of you would have loved to have known about being able to check complains BEFORE you ordered and got screwed?

I have made contact with Google and Yahoo and made and made the suggestion. Hopefully they will see the merit in this suggestion. It is my belief that they would do uninformed shoppers such as I was, an invaluable service. I know I wouldn't have got screwed out of my money.

If any of you wish any further information on what results I have received about this, you can email me atbandcqxx@comcast.net.

Robert A. Quinn.

AllMyFavoriteShows.com Scammed out of movies

I recently ordered a set of Judging Amy from www.allmytvshows.com and have since found out I was scammed. I was charged over $125.00 and never received the movies. The contact numbers are disconnected and the live chat operators lie and tell you the order is being processed. I have done some investigating and found this site is bogus as is a host of other dvd sales sites. DO NOT ORDER FROM THESE COMPANIES!

I purchased the set of Silver Spoons for $65.00 - when I got the order, 5 out of the 10 DVDs do not even work. To top it off, they are copied off TV and horrible quality. I have emailed the company, they say a refund will be processed and a replacement product shipped - well, it's been 4 months now, still no refund - some excuse about a problem with the bank. The problem is with the company - they are a hoax! Their email is orders@tvaddicts.tv - live chat is a hoax too.

DO NOT ORDER FROM ALLMYFAVORITESHOWS.COM OR TVADDICTS.TV

I placed an order with www.allmyfavoriteshows.com. They charged my credit card within 24 hours. Three weeks later I finally received my order. When I opened the box I discovered that half of my dvds were missing and one DVD was broken. I tried calling customer service [protected] like the web page says but could not get through.

I sent many emails to them but heard nothing back. BUYER BEWARE!

Unfortunately I did not research this company prior to ordering. When I searching internet for a solution to my problem, I found many people burned by this company.

It appears they operate under many names and often do not send any shipments at all. I feel special :)

If you type "1-877-7-TV-SHOW" in the search-engine box you will see for yourselve just how many different websites are displayed, all with the same number.

Here is a list of websites they manage and that need to be avoided:

DVDAvenue.tv
DVDCraze.tv,
TVDVDMania.tv,
TVDVDPlanet.com,
TVAddicts.tv,
TVonDisc.com,
Raredvds.tv
empiricalfilm.tv
internationalfilm.tv

Tvdvdplanet also trades on Ebay under these names: greyhare68, *FLASHASH*, shoot.john, huntyoudown. They are being investigated by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police.

If you just place an order with them, cancel your credit card and dispute the charge with your bank.

I placed my order on the 9th of Dec, was billed on the 12th of December. It is the 18th of January and I have not received my product. I have attempted numerous times to contact customer service. The phones are never answered, and the emails I have received state that my order has been sent, and they give me a tracking number, which states after checked that this tracking number does not exist. I signed up for email updates and have yet to receive any. I FINALLY got a hold of a live chat rep today and stated to them that I wanted a refund. She then told me that my order had in fact been sent and was sitting at the US customs inspections. After threatening them with reporting to my credit card company and the Canadian authorities she agreed to grant me a refund. I then promptly (amazingly!) received an email stating that I was to be refunded. We'll see if this happens. She stated that it should appear within 3-5 business days. I have not actually heard of anyone receiving a refund from this company so I do not plan to hold my breath.

Ordered three(3) different series all at one time , $250.00 total.
First set received within one week of ordering. No episode guide, disc not labeled, not in air date sequence,very poor quality copying. Email sent detailing the problems, asked for return authorization so i could return them for a refund.
Second set received while awaiting reply for the first set. Same problems. Email sent requesting return authorization.

Replies received, no return authorization given. Was advised replacements would be sent. Have never received them.

The third series was never received even though shipment notification was sent.

This all took place during midjune time frame

My credit card was charged for the entire order at the time of the first shipment. I have never received a credit back on any of the order, and followup emails have not been answered.

I realize, after reading others' complaints of this company, that I was lucky to receive my DVDs at all. When the DVDs finally arrived I was appalled at their poor quality. They looked like re-recorded videotapes -- the show I ordered had been amateurishly videoed from TV. Plus the first disk I tried was flawed; it irretrievably froze half way through. I shudder to think what's in store for me with the rest of the set. These people, also, were next to impossible to contact either by email or phone. They should be stopped from doing business.

I ordered from their website all the episodes of Cagney and Lacey.Not only are they taped from the television as it advertises the programs on after the show but so far the DVD's I have tried to watch on one disc alone there are three episodes that won't play at all, one stops in the middle of the show and are of general poor quality. I have tried to contact the company without any success and somehow they have managed to remove me from accessing their website. In total I am out of pocket £73.50 but the disappointment of trusting it was a genuine offer for something I have wanted to own for a long time my disappointment is the overriding feeling.

I ordered 2 dvd's from the allmyfavorite shows. com. The first t.v. show "Brooklyn Bridge" came a week after I ordered it, Quality was very poor and came with ads for 1960 cars! The second dvd they said is on it's way. I don't want it but I have no way of canceling it My credit card co. charged me $161.00. Please let me know if there is anything I can do about this. I am a senior citizen on a fixed income and I am housebound.

Thank you, Ruby Orellanes.

It is clear that the DVD's I ordered of that 70's show are copied. The DVD which it was copied on holds only 120 min of recording time and my DVR showed the disc having over 2 hours and 30 min of recorded footage. The episodes skip and on the first disc the frame froze on me and I couldn't at first figure out why. I then tried another one of my DVD players, clicked the next button and showed nothing else recorded. The entire episode was cut off. I am very disappointed because I ordered this DVD collection for my husband's birthday. We cannot keep these. I have tried calling and email but am not able to do neither of the two.

My husband and I placed an online order through www.allmyfavoriteshows.com and ordered a set of WKRP in Cincinnati DVD's. His credit card was immediately charged for the order. After a few weeks we finally received the order and started watching a DVD and realized it was bogus. It would stop and you could see tv commercials in the DVD verifying that it was bootleg and copied on a television. Most of the other DVD's would not even play all the way through. We have turned them into the Industry Canadian office who investigages Canadian companies. I hope they can help me get my money back and put them out of business.
