For the difference in price between the US version it was a no brainer for me.
As far as worrying about it being damaged I guess I am just a rebel that lives on the edge.

I've never had trouble with Amazon UK shipping and damage and I've ordered there 20+ times including the 21-Disc Laurel and Hardy set... not one disc came loose.

Went to FYE and found a still-sealed "used" copy of the Bourne Trilogy. It was marked at $71.99, and rang up at $59.99. The 40% off a used item coupon brought it down to $35.99, my Backstage Pass 10% discount brought it down to $32.39, and had I signed up for a 30-day trial of their "new" Backstage Pass club and got a free $20 gift card for doing so (which just arrived in the mail on Friday), so I got the trilogy, brand new, for $14.33 including tax.
Suck it, Amazon and Universal. Suck it.

I ordered the Bourne AND Matrix trilogies from Amazon UK for $55 and change...INCLUDING SHIPPING! The disparity between US and UK prices is absurd. In the case of the Matrix set, the bonus materials and the addition of the Animatrix hardly bridge the gap!
Bourne MSRPs
US - $119.98
UK - $72.39 (44.99 GBP)
Difference - $47.59
Matrix MSRPs
US - $129.95
UK - $64.34 (39.99 GBP)
Difference - $65.61
Note - I think I received a small discount since this was the first time I ordered from Amazon UK.

Nope. One of the corners of the slipcover had slight damage, but since it's just housing individual blu-ray cases for each movie (none of which were damaged), I didn't care. I checked out Identity and it worked great.
