"I recently placed an order for two video's from Sports Videos USA that were to be gifts. The service and speed of delivery was far and away the best experience I have ever had with any on-line order. Even when I made a mistake in my order and accidentally ordered two of the same DVD, I was contacted right away to make sure I had placed my order correct, any other retailer would have sent both and pocketed the money without question. As a parent and city council member, I can say I wish everyone had the work ethic, service and integrity of the people at Sports Videos USA.".... Ed Laverone, San Juan Bautista, California
