 Posted: 12/05/03 - 11:04 Post subject: Question for you Netflix users/abusers
If you live in a city that has a Netflix warehouse (I know Atlanta has one) how many movies can you go through in a month?
My family (mostly wife and daughters) watch A LOT of movies in a month but I'm a little concerned about signing up for Netflix if their turn around time is slow.

I think my parents got through 20something one month...  I personally don't have that much time on my hands but if I mail one Monday I have the next one Wednesday if that helps.
edited to add: Houston is a warehouse city, I mail my movies to a Houston PO Box

I think mine come from New York, and I too don't have the time to watch a boatload of movies, so for me the convenience is more not having to pay late fees or watch a movie the DAY I get it so it goes back on time.
Ours is about a two day turnaround as well. As soon as they get the movie, another one comes right out. I'd definitely say it's worth it depending on the plan you get. I have the 19.95 one.

2 days, most of the time. If I return a movie today, they will receive it by tomorrow, and I will have a new one by the next day .
I.E. I put it in the mail on monday, netflix receives it tuesday, mails next dvd which I receive by wednesday.

My turnaround in Norcross was 3 - 4 days. (I used a Netflix PO Box in Duluth PH.)
I used Netflix this past summer and enjoyed it. But I cancelled it back in Sept. when football season started.

The same for me, although it may be thursday when i get the next one. I get through about 10-15 a month. Spending time with the gf obviously affects this, but we just updgraded to the 5 out for $29.99 and try to get through as much as we can. I live fairly close to a distribution center (supposedly in my city, Bloomington, MN).
