I have some crunchyroll & amazon induced PTSD when it comes to blu-ray backorders and I'm curious about MediaOCD's backorder process.
I recently placed an order selecting only items from the "In Stock" filtered list. However, my order status afterwards indicated multiple items are "Backordered." I have a few questions:
- How do backorders work on this site?
- Is a backorder a fulfillment guaranteed, and what is the average fill time?
- To prevent "In Stock" items from selling out while waiting for backordered items, would it be better to cancel and split my purchase into two separate orders?
- Is there a way to determine if an item is on backorder before placing an order?
Additionally, I have not yet received an order confirmation email. I am hoping this is simply a side effect of the new site rather than an issue with my order.
Thanks in advance for your help!
