I phoned that number and he said you're only allowed 3 as they can't give you any more than that. I ordered the ones from the Lion King but I need 3 more. I still need Mary Poppins: 40th Anniversary Edition, Bambi and Aladdin. Don't know how I'm gonna get them.

SEE! I knew I wasn't hearing things when the first lady I called said "3 slipcovers"! :)

But I guess it does depend on the person you get...the other ladies that answered when I called in the past never mentioned anything about a limit.

The other day I ordered slipcovers for The Lion King and Finding Nemo. The lady that I talked to was VERY friendly. :) I've never had such a positive experience with customer service. It's a miracle! :o

Actually, I had a man and he seemed French. He was nice though and took down my address and phone number plus postal code. He said I should get them within 2 to 3 weeks.

No.
Those are specially packaged with a different 2-Disc DVD case.
Same goes for Tron, Dinosaur CE, and Snow White PE.

Glad to see you got TENG CE! :)

I am so happy, today I got my Finding Nemo slipcover and DVD case.

Disney customer service is awesome, it only took me about a week to get it in the mail.

There are a lot of companies that could learn a thing or two from Disney's customer service.

I ordered some today and they didn't have the Bambi or Mary Poppin's 40 Anniversary Edition slipcovers but they're sending me Aladdin. She said I could always check back later and ask if they have any. Now I only need Bambi and Mary Poppins 40th Anniversary Edition slipcovers.

Do you happen to know if Disney Customer Service still carries the Ultimate Toy Box Slipcover? I found an auction where they are selling the DVDs but not the Slipcover, I forgot to call today and the auction ends on Sunday and I'm not sure whether to bid or not.

This is Canada. When I phoned to the US one, she never mentioned about a limit.

Well, I know I heard limit of "3 slipcovers".
But since the other ladies told me no such thing, I'll believe slipcovers are free then. :)

K, moving on...
:p

Well, they didn't have Mary Poppins: 40th Anniversary Edition or Bambi. I need those two and possibly Incredibles as mine didn't have a slipcover when I bought it. When I ordered and asked for those 3 they only had Aladdin. She said I could phone back to see if they got them. The next time I phone, I'm gonna ask for a slipcover for The Incredibles.

Re: The Definitive Disney DVDs w/Slipcovers List

Jake Lipson wrote:<b>Finding Nemo: CE</b> -- Initial copies had a slipcover simmilar to that of A Bug's Life CE, with a shiny effect instead of opening like a book. Current copies don't have them. I've seen a couple dozen of them without the slips myself.

<b>Pocahontas: 10th Anniversary Edition</b> - Has a slipcover, which slips and covers, but does NOT open like a book.
I bought Finding Nemo at Wal-Mart today and it had the shiny slipcover. They had 4, 2 had slipcovers and 2 didn't.

Is the Pocahontas going to be a shiny slipcover or not?
