Help! I am having trouble downloading my digital copy.

If you purchased a Shout! Factory release and it has a digital copy, the first thing you should do is check the expiration date of the digital copy. Because we are only granted a limited window by our licensors to offer a digital copy with purchase, your digital copy may have expired.

If the offer is still valid, please visit the knowledge base at http://support.vhx.tv for help downloading your Digital Copy. If you have additional questions, please reach out to VHX directly using the contact form at http://support.vhx.tv.

Yes. Shipping on our site does not include import taxes, customs duties, or brokerage fees, which may be levied by Canadian customs.

You may be responsible for paying those fees and taxes to receive your order. We have no way of determining what those fees may be.

Please note that most of our titles are available from Canadian-based sellers such as Amazon Canada.

Why didn't I get everything I ordered?

There are several reasons that an order may be incomplete. If you have ordered more than one product, and one of those products is in pre-order status, the pre-order product will ship to arrive to you on the release date of that product.

We also ship from more than one warehouse; if your order contains products that are shipped from different locations, they will arrive in different shipments.

There are times that we have back-orders and occasionally there are promotional or “Gift With Purchase” items that ship from a different location than the product. Back-orders will ship when they are in stock, which usually takes 1 – 4 weeks.

Can I order by phone or mail?

We no longer take orders by phone or by mail. We can get you the phone number for a mail-order catalog if you contact us at info@shoutfactory.com.

What payment options are available?

We accept Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Discover, Apple Pay, Android Pay, as well as PayPal and Amazon Pay.

What is your return policy?

We accept unopened returns within 30 days of receipt.

We do not take returns of products purchased from anywhere except the Shout! Factory store. Products purchased from other online retailers or retail stores or online retailers are subject to the returns and exchange policy of those locations.

Please contact info@shoutfactory.com prior to returning an item, as a return merchandise authorization (RMA) number will be required. You will be sent return instructions once you have been assigned an RMA.

Once your return has been received, you will receive a refund for the full cost of the product (including applicable sales tax). We are unable to refund any shipping and handling charges unless the return is a result of our error. Please note that customers are responsible for the cost of return shipping, unless the return is a result of our error.

An item I purchased arrived damaged – what should I do?

Please contact us at info@shoutfactory.com with your ShoutFactory.com order number and include pictures of reported damages. We will do our best to fix the problem.

Please note that we cannot ship any product, including replacement parts, to addresses outside of the United States and Canada.

Please note that we do not allow purchases that include more than 9 units of any individual product.

Please contact us at info@shoutfactory.com if you have any questions.

How can I find out if an item in my order will have a slipcover?

Only certain releases have slipcovers. For those that do, slipcovers are guaranteed for the first three months after a product’s release date. Once that three-month window has ended, slipcovers are no longer manufactured, and are only available while supplies last.

Please note that because we ship from multiple warehouses, we cannot check our inventory to confirm if it will have a slipcover or not.

Do you ship to P.O. Boxes?

As of March 10, 2020, we have resumed shipping to United States post office boxes. We still cannot ship to P.O. boxes in Canada.

As state laws change, this list may be updated.

Can I combine promo codes?

Promotional codes cannot be combined at checkout. Our website only allows one promo code to be redeemed per purchase.

Are there any additional conversion charges for Canadian customers?

Though all site pricing is listed in USD, Canadian customers can pay with CAD. We offer CAD as a presentment currency, so there should be no conversion charges for Canadian orders or refunds.

Why does my tracking say "USPS Currently Awaiting Package"?

One of our shipping depots uses UPS Mail Innovations. Items shipped through UPSMI ship via both UPS and USPS (United State Postal Service). UPS ships the package most of the way and hands the package over to USPS in the destination zip code for final delivery.
 
If your tracking number returns a message of "USPS Currently Awaiting Package" on the USPS.com site, please track the number through UPS.com which should provide an estimated delivery date. Tracking will also update on UPS.com once the package is handed over to them.
 
If the estimated delivery date on tracking through UPS.com has passed, please alert us since that may mean the package has been lost by one of the two carriers.

How do I update my shipping address on an order?

If you have an order that has not yet shipped and would like to update your shipping address, please email info@shoutfactory.com with the following information:

1. Your six digit order number

2. Your updated shipping address

3. The original shipping address on your order

Route Loss, Damage, and Theft Protection

Shout customers can now add Route Package and Shipping Protection to their order.

When customers use Route on an order, packages associated with that order are insured from loss, shipping damage, and theft.

If you used Route insurance and had an issue, you can report an issue with Route through the mobile app (iOS or Android), through the email you receive from Route after placing your order, or by going to claims.route.com.

Can I buy slipcovers from you? What about other components?

Unfortunately, due to the limitations of our licensing rights, we cannot sell individual components – including (but not limited to) slipcovers, slipcases, individual discs, and art wraps.

Do you price match?

Unfortunately, we do not price match with other retailers.

How do I view my wish list?

To view items in your wish list, please log into your customer account.

Once logged into your customer account, select the tab marked “WISH LIST.” From there, you will be able to see every item on your wish list, and have the ability to add those items to your cart.

What’s this I’m hearing about stickers and buttons this year?

If your cart value during the sale exceeds $99.99 you will receive a prompt in your cart to select either the buttons or the prism stickers.

The prism sticker set and the button set will ship alongside the other sale items in your order.

What's the discount in the sale this year?

The average discount this year is 47% off MSRP – but titles are priced individually, with discounts ranging from 21% off to 67% off.

What counts as a qualifying sale item?

Only items listed on the Shocktober sale page (link) will qualify for the discount (over 400 Scream Factory releases will be on sale).

If an item in your cart sells out before you complete checkout, it will no longer be available at the sale price.

Due to item availability, your order may ship from multiple warehouses in multiple packages. You will receive a separate tracking number via email for each package that ships to you.

Can I cancel an order placed in the sale?

Once your order is sent to the warehouse for processing, we may not be able to cancel it. However, please email us at info@shoutfactory.com and we will do our best to accommodate any cancellation requests.

For orders shipping in the United States, please note that your order may ship via media mail or via FedEx Ground (how it ultimately ships will depend on the weight of the package and your shipping address).

How do I enable closed captioning?

Unlike subtitles, closed captioning is enabled through your television remote, not your DVD or Blu-Ray player remote.

Please note that the closed caption signal is not compatible with HDMI -- for your TV to read captions, your player must be connected to your TV with a yellow component cable.

If you're watching your DVD on a desktop or laptop computer, VLC player can detect closed captions, which can be enabled by selecting the program's Subtitle → Subtrack menu option.

Why does this title not have subtitles or closed captions?

There can be a few reasons for this. For many older shows closed captions were available during broadcast but have since been lost. Sometimes we simply don’t have the resources available to add subtitles to our releases. We understand this is sometimes frustrating, but we do our best to note on our website which products do and do not have these features.

I’m confused – what does the Aspect Ratio on the page mean?

There are two common TV screen shapes that most folks will recognize — the squarish shape of conventional TVs, and the widescreen shape of today's HDTVs. The term used to describe TV screen shape is "aspect ratio" — conventional TVs, and some small LCD HDTVs, have a 4:3 aspect ratio; widescreen HDTVs have a 16:9 ratio.

TV shows also typically have a 4:3 or 16:9 ratio. While most new HD programming is in 16:9, a significant amount of TV broadcasts are still sent in the conventional 4:3 ratio. And it's the difference in shape between those two ratios that can result in a "pillar boxed" picture — one with black columns standing to the left and right of the image — when you watch a conventional 4:3 program on your widescreen TV.

So we have below the translation of our Aspect Ratio descriptors and how they relate to the screen (or setting) best suited for viewing:

  • 1.33:1 – Full-screen (4x3)
  • 1.77:1 & 1.78:1 – Widescreen (16x9)
  • 1.85:1 & 2.35:1 – Widescreen (wider than 16x9)

How can I tell if my DVD set is not a genuine Shout! Factory product?

1. Disc Size: The best way to tell if your set is a bootleg is to check the size of one or more of the discs. Most of our DVD releases use dual-layered DVDs, which can hold up to 8.5 gigabytes of data. Bootleggers, on the other hand, use cheaper, single-layer discs, which can only hold up to 4.7 gigabytes of data. You can determine if your discs are single or dual-layered by checking their size in a DVD-ROM drive.

2. Price: If you see a seller offering one of our box sets for dramatically less than it is available for purchase on our website and from authorized retailers (such as Amazon, Best Buy, Costco, Wal-Mart, etc.), chances are good that it is a bootleg. In short, if the price for a “brand-new set” seems too good to be true, it probably is.

3. Missing Booklets: For box sets that contain booklets, bootleggers will sometimes leave out the booklet. If a seller tries to tell you that their inventory was missing the booklet, it is very likely that they did not purchase what they are selling to you from a legitimate source.

4. Inability to Replace Defective Parts: If the seller where you purchased the set is unable to help you with replacement parts, they may be an illegal seller. An authorized retailer will have access to the supplier (us) and be able to procure the appropriate replacements.

5. Playback Issues: Because counterfeit discs are highly-compressed and not professionally authored, they often have major playback issues. Episodes will skip or cut out, and some discs may be completely unreadable. If you purchase a box set and find that several discs have major playback issues, chances are good that you have purchased a bootleg.

6. Poor Video and Audio Quality: Because the disc content has been compressed from a dual-layered source to a single-layered disc, bootlegs of our sets often have terrible picture and audio quality, even when they play perfectly well on your equipment.

7. Region Coding: Counterfeits of our DVDs and Blu-rays are often region-free discs (discs that play anywhere in the world). Most of our actual releases are Region 1/A locked, due to the fact that we almost always do not have the legal right to sell our products outside of North America.

How could my brand-new and factory sealed set be a bootleg?

Bootleggers have gotten quite sophisticated – not only do they shrink-wrap their products, but they often go so far as to reproduce our marketing stickers on the outside of the packaging. Shrink-wrap and a marketing sticker do not ensure that the set you have purchased is official.

I inadvertently ordered a bootleg of one of your sets – how do I get my money back?

Contact your credit card company or PayPal – do NOT contact the website or seller that sold you the DVDs. Your credit card company is there to protect you from fraud, and if you report a bootlegger, your credit card company will open an investigation which will most likely result in a refund. If a credit card company receives enough complaints, a seller’s credit card processing abilities can be revoked.

Most credit card companies will give you 90 days from the time of the order to dispute the charges; PayPal will give you 45 days.

How do the sales of bootlegs affect Shout! Factory?

Every time a bootleg of one of our releases is sold, it means the loss of a potential sale of an authorized set. Lost sales may prevent us from releasing other great shows and movies in the future. The sales of bootlegs also mean the loss of compensation to all the people and companies who contribute to, create, publicize, and support the entertainment product we bring to you.

What can I do to help shut down these illegal sellers?

If you’re in the United States, you should report any offending sellers to the MPAA (Motion Picture Association of America) by sending an email to this email address: hotline@mpaa.org. You can also file a report with the Better Business Bureau® (https://www.bbb.org/).

If you’ve made a purchase on the Amazon Marketplace, please email your order ID and the seller’s information to us at info@shoutfactory.com, and we will work with Amazon to have the offending seller account suspended. If you’ve made a purchase on eBay, we ask that you please report the seller to eBay using the “report item” option on the auction page and leave the seller negative feedback indicating that they sold you a fraudulent item. If you provide us with the seller’s information, we can also report the fraudulent item to eBay.
