“My experience with Zeus dvd”

Maria P.
2/1/24

I've ordered now several hard to find movies from Zeus. The prices are more than fair, and the movies have all arrived at my home quickly. I'm very pleased with this service.

“Wow. Never have I accidentally dealt with a bootlegger.”

As an officer of the court, I pride myself on doing everything on the up and up. My 73-year-old aunt told me about "One Big Beat" and how she remembered it as a kid and could never find it. I was excited to find it on the web at zeusdvds.com. It arrived one week later. My aunt received it today and said it came loose in an envelope with some bubble wrap. No shipping slip, no case, no formal packaging of any kind. I thought maybe it got damaged in shipping and it was just put in a different envelope. I started thinking about it and it was at me and I thought of pirating or bootlegging. I started googling and came across this site and I feel like throwing up. I will be gathering the packaging and DVD from my aunt. I don't care that I lost out on the money, but this needs to go to the proper authorities, I just don't know who to go to with this. I attempted to call them, and the phone number on their website comes back as a number no longer in service. I sent them an email and it bounced back.

On 10/16/2020, I ordered 11 DVDs. By 12/29/2020, my order's status was still Awaiting Shipment. In other words, after 2-1/2 months it had still not been shipped. I filed a request for refund through PayPal, and eventually got my money back.

I recently placed an order for 2 DVDs. One DVD was fine, the 2nd one would not work. 3 inquiries for a replacemnet went unanswered.

Products used:
I ordered 2 DVDs Oh, rosalinda and I accuse. they seem to specialize in hard to find movies. that's what makes their unreliability disappointing. one worked fine, oh rosalinda did not. i sent 3 inquries, but received no response.

On 3 occasions in the past, ordered DVDs and the results were OK. Latest order was not shipped nor claimed to be. No response to inquiries about the order. But every day get new email about new offerings supposedly available.
Drumming up new business makes no sense when existing orders cannot or will not be filled. Perhaps this "retired" Zeus person is becoming senile-- or has decided to just defraud customers.

I had quite long association with this website - because of the really rare collections - especially of my interest era - thirties and forties. In the beginning about a couple of years back it was OK, then somewhere around 2017, two of the orders were not delivered - in fact the website showed "awaiting shipment" - no response to mails- as most here have faced. But to my surprise, all of them did land up - a few months back (i. E. two years after ordering) - and all of them were as ordered - no error or missing. What is wrong probably is the efficiency and systematic work at his place, he loses track of order and finally, while ticking off, finds undelivered (my guess - else why 2 years?). May be two years late - but as on date there hadn't been any really undelivered.

Ordered 3 DVDs from this company, had my checking account debited immediately. Received two of the DVDs (bootlegs) after emailing asking about them. Still no word on the 3rd after multiple emails inquiring about it. I'm resigned to eating the $12.99 on that one, but I'll never do business with this guy again.

Ordered 2 Oct. 2017. Order completed 4 Oct 2017. Still no DVD as of 18 Oct 2017, nor answers to my emails. The ONLY reason I risked it was it is the only place that has the movie I ordered, save overseas and those disks won't play on my DVD player... UPDATE - I received the DVD in the mail today. It appears to function correctly. It does have French sub-titles, but they aren't very distracting. I'd rate this vendor at 2.5 stars if it would let me. Given the problems he has had, and his apparent lack of customer contact, I would recommend to HIM to amend his website and remove the claim of two day or less order fulfillment. To potential customers, I'd warn them to not expect rapid delivery, if there is delivery.

I tried to cancel my order but no answer, so I contacted my bank to refund the money, they did their part and tried to contact Zeus and reimbursed me. Then a month a half later I get a shipping notice from Zeus that my order was FINALLY being sent, when I received it, it looks like a bootleg copy not in the original box or DVD, I won't order again.

I have received 3 DVD's from Milo at Zeus DVD, 2 of which came rather recently and were of good quality. But an order of "ANNA" made March 21,2018 is yet to arrive and it is April 27 as I write this. I also have 2 recently placed orders which are not late yet, and have apparently been shipped according to his website. Time will tell. I will not order any more until all this is resolved, if resolution is possible.

I have on order two dvds. It's been 12 days since the order admittedly not a long time like other reviewers here. I only ordered from zeus for the first time because the films are impossible to find anywhere. They have not replied to emails. I should have checked them out first but I took a risk. I normally don't use credit cards with outfits like this and use a green dot which means they can't charge back the vendors. I'm willing to wait a while longer before I file a complaint with BBB. Be very careful with this company if you want to have a dvd that only they appear to sell.

There's a rare movie that I was trying to find, and I am happy to have found it on this website so that I can finally watch it. However, I have two very serious concerns with the quality of this website.

First, it took 32 days for the seller to ship the product. It took several more days to receive the product from the post.

Second, I feel that the product was misrepresented. I believed that I was purchasing an original copy of the DVD I wanted. I received a cheap burned copy instead. Nowhere on the home page or the product page was it listed that a (possibly pirate) copy of the movie would be delivered. After receiving the product, I found a small sentence on the "about me" page indicating that many of the products have been "preserved as direct film transfers." The price was VERY high for something was not an original. I question, if the original product is not being delivered, why bother sending a physical burned copy at all? Just let me download the movie and burn it to a blank DVD myself.

Recommendation: Only use this website if absolutely desperate to see a movie that is simply unavailable from all other sources.
