I didn't know where else to put this, feel free to move it if you'd like. I'm just soooooooo p***** right now, p***** beyond words!
Last week I ordered a John Wayne Giftset box with both The Searchers and Rio Bravo in the Ultimate Collector's Editions for the amazing price of just a bit over 12 dollars plus shipping. I've been on cloud nine all week, awaiting its arrival. Then finally, today I receive the package I've waited for a whole week. I open it with the excitement of a child on Christmas morning and what do I see? Something completely different than what I ordered! I got the John Wayne FIlm Collection box set with the following titles:
Allegheny Uprising
Reunion In France
Without Reservations
Tycoon
Big Jim McLain
Trouble Along the Way
I don't own these movies at the moment, in fact I haven't even seen them (are they any good?) and I know that The Duke will always be The Duke, but these movies are not what I had my heart set on and am therefore very disappointed. I emailed the seller on eBay and told him I want a full refund and the shipping cost for me to ship it back to him. I'm awaiting his responce, I hope it will be resolved quickly.
So, to answer the question, last movies I bought on DVD was The Searchers and Rio Bravo but what I got was something entirely different.

Had to amend your post slightly, inappropriate language!
In answer to your question,
you will NOT find the above movies anywhere near the same level
as The Searchers etc.
Obviously Duke has never made a 'bad' movie,
but these are very much second and third tier!
As The Ringo Kid said, Allegheny Uprising is an excellent movie
and one of my favourites.
Without Reservations, Big Jim McLain, and Trouble Along the Way on par, just OK
Renunion in France and Tycoon, are very weak by Duke's standards,
with Tycoon probably being in the 'one of Duke's worst movies' section

Looks like I'll be viewing the movies myself soon enough. The seller told me he'd ship the correct item tomorrow and let me keep the wrong box set I received. I guess that's fair enough.
Looks like a win, Hondo Apache. You'll get the movies you wanted, and now have others you may not have bought for some time that you can view at your leisure. Enjoy!

Full Metal Jacket on Blu-ray.
The Warriors - Ultimate Director's Cut is my latest purchase. Fell in love with this movie when I watched it a couple of weeks ago for the first time.
Seriously, this is the bargain of the year for me:
I can't believe I got this beautiful giftset of both The Searchers and Rio Bravo in their respective Ultimate Collector's Edition for just over 12 dollars plus shipping. It's an absolute steal! Two of the finest westerns ever made in a luxurious case, filled with both bonus features and other goodies for the fans of The Duke.
Anyone else own this set? Or the Ultimate Collector's Editions of the movies? It's too bad Iäm going away this weekend, I don't think I'll be able to watch them until next weekend since I'm too exhausted from work to watch them on the weekdays.
