Re: Powerhouse/Indicator (UK) Blu-ray Sales
I hear this complaint about shipping to the US. But I don't see this when I order. I bought 14 movies, and including shipping it averaged $11 a movie!! That's insane for any Indicator release! And I didn't even take advantage of the 50% offer because I didn't see it before I ordered. To me. This was the sale of the year.
At first I held off too long on my order and the two Noir sets went out of stock. Placed my order without them (grudgingly because of shipping on a smaller order), only to see them available again last night. Cancelled and re-ordered:
FILM NOIR 1
FILM NOIR 2
HAMMER 5
FU MANCHU CYCLE
THE WRONG BOX
THE TINGLER
I MONSTER
Shipping was $42 CDN, so about $6 per, which is pretty reasonable, especially on those boxed sets (which I’ve never really seen that cheap, relatively speaking). Agreed that this is a pretty solid sale, and even if you don’t participate in a group buy or – like me – can’t get to £200 because you already own a bunch of Indicator stuff, you can at least make the shipping make sense with a combination of boxes and singles.
BTW, regarding 13 GHOSTS, the product description lists “on-disc ghost viewer options” so presumably they’ve made up for the lack of a physical viewer. I have this in the William Castle set but haven’t watched it yet. Held on to my ghost viewer from the old DVD, but I’d imagine a pair of red/blue 3D glasses would do the trick, if it’s even necessary on the Indicator disc.

That's a huge order, but it might be worth it to do all your Indicator shopping once every five years so that you may reach this threshold more easily!

Depending on the cost of those 14 titles – 14 at £6.99 doesn’t even crack £100 – stretching to £200 could’ve been difficult.

Yes, I got everything I could want from the sale and couldn't come to the 200 pound limit... As I said, everything worked out to about $10 a movie (or so) even with shipping, so no complaints! (Plus, I really couldn't afford a $275 order right now)

Re: Powerhouse/Indicator (UK) Blu-ray Sales
A flash sale started today. Runs a week.
Free shipping over £50 for UK, £200 for International orders.
https://www.powerhousefilms.co.uk/collections/sale
US buyers would be wise to do a group buy to get to £200 for free shipping. I'm not sure if there enough people here who'd be interested.

Re: Powerhouse/Indicator (UK) Blu-ray Sales
Some excellent prices here even if you don't hit the high free shipping threshold. I looked only at Region-Free titles and picked up:
THE WRONG BOX - BD × 1
THE LAST DETAIL - BD × 1
THE COLLECTOR - BD × 1
THE CHINA SYNDROME - BD × 1
NIGHT OF THE DEMON - BD × 1
MODERN ROMANCE - BD × 1
HOUSEKEEPING - BD × 1
HARDCORE - BD × 1
GEORGY GIRL - BD × 1
All of these were part of the 3 for £15 sale (which doesn't seem to require a multiple of 3 discs to get the reduced pricing) except the 2-disc Night Of The Demon set which was £9.99. The total charged to my card (which does not charge foreign transaction fees) was $67.01, shipped. So an average of $7.45 per title.

Re: Powerhouse/Indicator (UK) Blu-ray Sales
Received my order of 32 titles today with Fedex International tracking. Solid packaging in a sturdy box. While it wouldn't be possible to place £200 orders for free shipping all the time, the overall customer service experience with the company won't deter me from considering smaller orders. Glad to have made this order as the sterling has since crept up

Re: Powerhouse/Indicator (UK) Blu-ray Sales
The Powerhouse sale is live now. Some good stuff in the '3 for £15' selections. Not sure how badly shipping/customs will screw that up, though. If you've bought previous Indicator boxed sets, you might need to double check those first as some of these singles originated in those collections.

Harryhausen:
FIRST MEN IN THE MOON - BD
MYSTERIOUS ISLAND - BD
THE 3 WORLDS OF GULLIVER - BD
THE GOLDEN VOYAGE OF SINBAD - BD
SINBAD AND THE EYE OF THE TIGER - BD
THE 7TH VOYAGE OF SINBAD - BD
IT CAME FROM BENEATH THE SEA - BD
20 MILLION MILES TO EARTH - BD
Kramer:
SHIP OF FOOLS - BD
THE WILD ONE - BD
THE 5,000 FINGERS OF DR. T - BD
Other:
BODY DOUBLE - BD
SUDDENLY, LAST SUMMER - BD
THE DAMNED - BD
So 14 titles. Going through most of checkout shows £4 per title after VAT removal. With shipping to my New York state address it would come to £81.96. That's right around 100 bucks at current exchange rates. About $7.15 a title.
So even with the hefty shipping there are once again good deals to be had here, especially on those 3 for £15 titles. (I'm just not sure if I personally want to make the expenditure right now).

I loaded up my cart with a bunch of the 3 for £15 titles -- mostly Harryhausen and Stanley Kramer -- but have not pulled the trigger. I believe these are all region free (another thing you need to check if that is important to you -- but their listings clearly indicate region):

When I ordered from the last iteration of this sale I was very happy with the experience -- shipping, packaging, and the discs themselves. I was especially pleased with the quality of the extras that Indicator includes.
