Beware of ADE Rental Service. 2/26/2004 11:29 AM
I have to agree. I joined the Adult dvd empire rental program and I am very very sorry I did. I received my first set of three disks promptly. I took them nine days after I mailed them (from Maryland to Pennsylvania!) to record them as recieved. Two days after there site showed one item shipped (It took me 5 days to receive it meaning the "shipped" was bogus). Four days after that items 34 and 72 on my que were "shipped" and again took five days.
