FedEx Now Available For Residential Delivery

GLSC customers will be pleased to learn that Federal Express service is now available for GLSC orders sent to residential addresses. Previously, only UPS delivery was available for residential shipments.

That means GLSC customers can now choose between regular air service ($12.00), air saver service ($10.50), and ground service ($7.00) from the carrier of their choice for all residential deliveries.* For security reasons, all delivery service options from both carriers require a signature to confirm delivery.

Many of our customers do not have a preference as to which carrier delivers their package. If you have a preference, please be sure to state your preferred carrier - FedEx or UPS - at the time you place your order.

*Not all service options are available in remote or rural areas.

Blockbuster Game Card Advisory

We need to inform you that if you are purchasing or have purchased Blockbuster $6.00 Single Game rental cards in the last week, they have incorrect information typed on the back of the card. The information on the back of the card states that the card is good for movie rentals only and does not state that they are valid for game rentals as well. Fortunately, the bar code is correct and can still be redeemed at a Blockbuster cash register for either a game rental or movie rental. 

We apologize for any confusion or inconvenience this may cause.
