“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.

Top Critical Review

“BEWARE. They sell defective DVDs and don't replace or refund.”

I purchased DVDs and several were defective, and they did not respond to requests to replace or refund. No response at all. A very disreputable company. Buy your DVDs somewhere else. BEWARE.

Ordered 6 films & 1 series, totalling $70.00. One film was out of sync, the voices & the picture were off & it wasn't a dubbing issue. The series had missing episodes & some duplicates. Some films were decent quality, while others were awful. I wouldn't recommend them. Also, the reviews placed on their site never get published.

I ordered Dvds from them that I never Got - they took my money though! Then I read other reviews and there was not a good one to be read - all rated them as Scam Merchants, beware and stay clear of them.

I placed my order on October 11,2018 and was notified three days later that it was awaiting shipment. In January 2019, I wrote a review accusing Zeus of thievery since I never received my order. I need to revise that review since I was notified on July 8,2020 that my package was shipped on that date. The CDs did arrive (no explanation for delay, apology, etc.) and I am very happy with them, except that I had since bought a copy of one from another vendor in the intervening 20 months! So, the CDs did arrive after a wait of almost two years. That may be a record for this business. I cannot say that I would recommend purchasing from Zeus. I will not since as a retiree, I cannot afford again to wait for two years for merchandise to arrive: I may not be here to receive it!

At first I thought this was a great site with all of the old movies listed, so I quickly ordered one that I had been looking for.
A month later I had not received my dvd so I emailed *******@zeusdvds.com.
Never heard from anyone associated with this scam company and never received my dvd.
Finally asked my credit card company to dispute the charge.
ZEUS DVDS is nothing but a ripoff scam!

I ordered "The Victors" from Zeus DVDs. I was informed of the processing of my order from placement through delivery. The DVD is playable. The case is a slim snapcase with blank front and back covers. DVD, case are fine. So glad that I used Zeus to get this DVD.

Tip for consumers:
I only used once but I will use again.

DVD which played flawlessly.

Ordered a DVD April 18th. So far the money has been withdrawn from my account and the DVD is still "awaiting shipment", 2 months later. Beginning to realize that I'll probably never see my money or the DVD! Mailed Milo several times = no reply. WIsh I' d checked this page before ordering!

Ordered a DVD of the hard-to-find DVD Coming Out of the Ice with John Savage. I didn't watch it for a while and then when I did, what a shock! It was a terrible copy - extremely blurry and and it even included "rolling" of the picture and white static that used to result from poor "tracking" on the old VHS players. I have contacted the seller, but do not expect an answer based on the poor reviews I have just read. I'll be sure to check them next time and not be taken in by such an unscrupulous seller.

I ordered two movies from this company, both television movies from way back. One dvd was fine, then both dvd's for the second movie were defective, frequent buffering for part 1, and the 2nd dvd wouldn't even play showing incorrect format. I contacted Zeus numerous times concerning this and have never heard back from them.

I placed an order and received a notice it is awaiting shipment. It has been 7 wks now and I have sent Milo 4 emails asking when he might be receiving this. Not 1 response like many here have said. I will wait another couple weeks and if I do not hear anything I will be contacting my Credit Card company and the BBB. I understand he may be busy but Geez at least answer peoples emails!

I stupidly expected a quality dvd but what I received was a clearly bootlegged copy of a film that had clearly run on Encore. The case was blank white, the disc was rattling around in the case and the quality of the dvd was terrible. There was a message on the bottom of the screen that Encore was experiencing satellite difficulties so please be patient, and that message ran several times. I am not experienced in the legalities of this kind of sale but it looks like Zeus is a rotten company with profits being the only motive. There is a difference between a sale and a customer and Zeus clearly believes that one-time sales are preferable to a good relationship. I am disgusted and hope that potential buyers will take the time that I did not to look at the reviews before making a purchase.

I ordered Come On Be Happy as I had previously enjoyed watching it on TubiTV. It arrived within five days from order. I noticed that the disc was not in a hard case but a standard blank DVD envelope. I loaded it into my DVD player, The picture was good, not what you'd expect from a studio release. I also noticed the logo for Encore TV in the lower right corner of the screen. This is an obvious save on a DVR and later burned to DVD. The DVD is not available from Amazon or other reputable sellers. Had I known that this seller deals in pirated video, I would have given Zeus a hard pass.

I ordered a copy of the 1980 TV movie Bogie on October 31st. On November 5th I requested a refund. I got a bad feeling after 5 days of no updates. I got a feeling something was going on. It has been 21 days since I requested the refund and still no response. No updates on the order. No refund. And definitely no package. Milo should pay this site a visit and see what people really think of him and his scam of a site. This is, as the title of my review says, absolutely ridiculous!

I have ordered over 160 Dvd's from Zeus over the past 15 Months. Milo has been open about late fulfillment because he is a 1 man operation. Until January or so of this year it took 3-4 weeks to receive my orders which ranged from 5 to 12 dvds in a batch. Since then. Service has gotten impossible as he is now discounting his dvds and is receiving 100-200 orders every few weeks. Currently he owes me about 30 dvds some of which date back to April 12th and 27,. I understand the nature iof the business particularly orders which are not composed of new offers. Obviously if I order Disc A he must accumulate serveral orders of Disc A before he replicates from a master,. If there are 5 to 10 discs per order from his collection it may take many weeks. At this point waiting 3-4 months is a bit much. His approach is obviously costing him business. For collectors who wish for faster service there are other outlets similar tozeus

I don't even give them one star, but had to because there is no selection for "none." I ordered January 18,2018 and have not received my order. I have not been able to reach them by any means made available. THEY ARE A RIP OFF, and I cannot understand why they are still permitted to do what they are doing on the Internet.

I had the same issue with this company once before - however, I finally did receive the DVD! I should have gone with my gut feeling THIS time. The phone number I found listed for them doesn't work either - imagine that! I 'googled' the address Milos (lists on his website (7027 W Broward Blvd #309, Ft. Lauderdale, FL) and found it is a shipping and mailing store in Plantation, FL.

I ordered two DVDs back in the beginning of December 2020 and received one of them. I made the mistake of ordering three more DVDs in the end of December 2020 expecting the omission had been a simple mistake. Since then I have received nothing in the mail and, despite e-mailing and calling Milo at Zeus - *******124 -numerous times, have received NOTHING. Not an e-mail, not a call back, nothing I ordered. It's now May 2021. THESE PEOPLE ARE A SCAM OUTFIT! DO NOT ORDER FROM THEM! I can understand some issued during the pandemic but at least let us know what's going on. The fact that their website is still up and running means they continue to rip people off every day!

Tip for consumers:
Never order from Zeus DVDs

Buyer beware placed order with Zeusdvds.com and never got my dvd. They took my money and never heard from them again. Emailed Milo and called with no response. Filing with BBB is useless they will do nothing. Don't ever purchase from Zeusdvds.com

L'OEIL DU MALIN is one of the best of Claude Chabrol's early films, and a fascinating forerunner of the 'Helene' series of his golden period some ten years later. The Zeus dvd is triply useless. It appears to have been made from a television transmission. A maddeningly distracting figure 13 appears in the top right-hand corner of the image from beginning to end. But the television set must have been of the old, harrower shape; L'OEIL was shot for wide screen, so part of the image is lost over the edge. Finally, the image has, inexplicably, been laterally compressed, with dreadful distortion; everyone, and everything, is too thin.

I would give 0 stars if I could. I ordered a DVD from their site and was notified that my item was shipped and my credit card billed. It is a month later and I still have not received my DVD. I have tried 3x to contact them via email and telephone and have not received a response. I see that many other people have experienced the same non-delivery and non-response issues. I only wish that I had investigated this company before I ordered my DVD. I have filed a complaint to the BBB and have had my credit card company investigate an illegal charge on my card from Zeus DVD. Under NO circumstances should anyone EVER order from this site. They are a fraud.

There was no response from Zeus DVD to my request about what was happening with my order. I contacted my credit card company to cancel payment, which they did. But, I would have preferred to have recieved what I ordered.
UPDATE: After receiving an email that my order had been sent 9/13/2021, I did finally reveive it on 11/12/2021. Now I should contact my credit card company to reverse the credit.
I realize that this sort of company is not selling a quality product, many of their DVD's being copied from TV. One of the DVD's, 1935's "Hold 'em Yale", was of acceptable quality. The other, 1937's "Hold 'em Navy" was almost unwatchable. It had apparently been recorded on a VCR on its last legs from a TV program "Sports Theater."
I will still leave my rating at one star.If I were feeling generous I could update to 1 1/2.

Tip for consumers:
Use this site only if you are desperate to find a rare movie that you can't find using a reputable source.
