I use the date posted, for no particular reason other than being consistent. I would actually have welcomed more fields for order date, shipping date and date recieved but all that data is long lost now anyway so I wouldn't bother to change it now.

I use the ordered date. That's all the info I had on record for discs I got before I started using the software, so I was just being consistent. That does mean I bought The Sarah Connor Chronicles Season One way before it was released, though.

It all seems so stupid, it makes me want to give up!
But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid?

Date received.

It's not part of my collection until I actually have it... 

This...and I have to add that I do not use the 'Ordered' tab so it isn't even entered until I have it in my hot not-so-little hands.

Oddly, this is a feature I don't use in the program.

I probably would if I had from the beginning, but since I didn't start from the beginning, I don't do it now. (This is no doubt related to my OCD. )

As I order 99.9% of my dvds online, I use the ordered date when I order it, but change it to the received date when it arrives.

I did ask long ago for multiple date options.

I'd love to have dvdprofiler, keep track of order/shipped/received date.

while for some suppliers you don't know exactly when they are shipped, its pretty rare these days not to be able to work that out.

when I ordered a lot from the US, it was always interesting to work out, which had the shortest transit time.
