People shouldn't overly worry about delayed shipments from them, customs occasionally inspects a cargo container and delays shipping time by a couple of weeks.
They also tend to have some really great prices on region-free Blu-ray sets ( Kubrick and Universal Monsters, for example.) |

Hmm, kind of shows how much demand there is for stuff that's been snubbed over here, such as the recent Disney 3D titles.

Fading Gigolo $5
As a Woody Allen fan, I had to jump at this as a blind buy... https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1 |

that's what I was gonna do if it didn't come in this week (it came on monday) |

They have no control over customs. I would give them two weeks past the expected delivery date. Which service did they use to ship it?

Re: Amazon discounts and deals on Blu-ray
FWIW Spiderbite, my copy of BBT shipped the same day as my Superman set with a 1/21 expected delivery date and it hasn't arrived yet either.

Re: Amazon discounts and deals on Blu-ray
I ordered something from them on Jan 11th, haven't received it yet either.

Re: Amazon discounts and deals on Blu-ray
My order for that new Metropolis BD hasn't arrived from the UK yet. It had a delivery estimate for 1/28, which was yesterday.
|
Re: Amazon discounts and deals on Blu-ray
Wouldn't surprise me if a whole lotta stuff was delayed. Maybe because of the storms.
|
Re: Amazon discounts and deals on Blu-ray
Does the UK usually get storms in this time?

Re: Amazon discounts and deals on Blu-ray
I'm waiting on a couple of steelbooks and a regular Blu-ray from Amazon France, but its only been a week. Usually my Amazon UK shipments take about 1 1/2 to 2 weeks, and the one time I ordered from Amazon Germany, it took 2 weeks. The only time I've had Amazon UK get lost was the infamous Alien Anthology blu from a while back when they had it on a ridiculous sale (at the time anyway). That's what made them switch to Royal Mail for a lot of shipments I believe.

Re: Amazon discounts and deals on Blu-ray
Both of my sets came in yesterday, so hopefully other folks should start seeing theirs sooner than later.

Re: Amazon discounts and deals on Blu-ray
Still waiting on my Police Academy set. Not having any idea of when to expect it is a bit concerning when you live in a neighborhood and wouldn't have any idea it was left and possibly snatched off your porch. I don't like having stuff shipped nowadays without a tracking number and notification as to when it should arrive. This guessing stuff is for the birds.

Re: Amazon discounts and deals on Blu-ray
There's seems to be lots of talk about shipping times from Amazon UK which is odd since this the bargain thread for Amazon US. Can we get back to deals for Amazon.com please?
|
Re: Amazon discounts and deals on Blu-ray
I don't mind it. It's not like it's going to take over the thread anyway. Seems like something worth knowing anyway...
|
Re: Amazon discounts and deals on Blu-ray
No, this is an Amazon thread - it is not specific to region...
|
Re: Amazon discounts and deals on Blu-ray
I haven't really minded since it's US customers ordering region-compatible discs, and I've done that myself. That said, I've been hoping to run across a US deal that I could post myself to get things back on track. :)
