Im in FL and I wont get back till the 10th, which is the final deadline, and I dont want to send another email to Starmax if I already received them. Im gonna call home and see if I received it.

I've looked through both threads for a referrence to this, so if there is and I missed it, I apologize. I was looking around dddhouse.com today (looking for Stephen Chow films to pick up) and I came across this version of Old Boy, and I haven't heard anthing about it.
Edko Old Boy I haven't seen Old Boy yet and it sounds interesting, and the price is right, but after getting the Edko HOFD, I'm more than a little leery. Anybody hear about the quality? |

I don't have Korean Language Support on my machine. This PC was sent to me from work already loaded so I don't have any of the software. What's gmail?

Start --> Control Panel --> Regional and Language Options --> Languages (Tab) --> Install files for East Asian Languages (it then prompts you for the Windows XP installation disk) Gmail is a an email account that is readily able to bypass Starmax's spam filters. If you need one, let me know, as I have a few invitations left... |
more specifically, gmail is google email.

I received my replacement digipacks and cardboard cover from Starmax. Unfortunately, I'm not sure how it happened. I ordered Oldboy from YesAsia and KoreanDVDs.com. I made replacement requests directly with Starmax, through YesAsia, and through KoreanDVDs. So now I'm not sure which request was honored. I still need additional replacement packs, not sure what to do.
Has anyone who ordered from KoreanDVDs.com received their replacement digipacks without contacting Starmax directly? |

Just made a call home. Replacements still have not arrived. Im gonna wait a couple more days, then Im going to send another email to Starmax just in case.
|
Off topic again: Just watched the movie. So incredibly awesome.
Sorry. |
i got that B*LLS*** email from Yesasia a few days ago also. WTF did they make us send them ALL that friggin' info, including pics, when all they ended up doing is make us resend the info the Starmax?? i forwarded all the info again, including Yesasia's email, to Starmax last night. i hope the info goes thru. if the message gets filtered out, will i get a receipt? i only sent it using my regular ISP email address, not googlemail (since i don't have one.)

okay, thanks, ehonauer!
|
i sent my email via gmail and it was delivered.
also, i received no spam and other emails which i previously received when i used my netscape mail... thanks for the heads up people.. |
Are the pictures necessary? I thought it was only when other digipacks were damaged, other than the movie and the two supplement discs.

The thing is what if StarMax dont get me my replacements? and dont get back to me about my Fooked up Tin!!!! who will then pay! YESASIA WILL WITH BLOOD! they piised me about fopr weeks and should ahve told me to contact starmax directly instead of sending me 2 emails asking me for details! they messed up I want there sodding blood! on my fists!
|
Bring a hammer :)
|
got my replacements today....I was starting to get worried
|
Does anyone have access to both the FE and UE? I'd like to see some shots taken using the same setup to see if there's an actual transfer difference. I believe there is but one can't really tell as most shots are taken using different setups.
|
Well I'll be darned! I got my replacements from starmax this morning. I guess the 1st e-mail I sent Starmax a month ago did go thru. :)
Dr. Gerbil, sorry for the hassle. |
Still havent gotten my replacements. Im very worried. I just sent another email to Starmax to beat the "final" deadline on monday. Its weird that I havent received them yet as they sent me various emails after my initial message. I really hope I dont get screwed here.
|
Hope my sleeve comes in... I didn't ask for replacements as the damage was minimal... wonder if they'll consider sending it to me.
|
I am gonna email gain right now! as I still havent heard anything at all, its a total joke! :(
|
got this crap message this time!!!!!!!
----- The following addresses had permanent fatal errors ----- [email protected] wont mail!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :( |
did you guys ever get ahold of starmax? this sucks...i have not one, but TWO roughed up copies!!! (don't ask why...) anyway, i just sent them another email, hopefully it reaches them. Oh, and did anybody end up having to send back the damaged digipaks in order to receive the new ones?
|
Never had to send anything, nor did I ever hear back from Starmax... the replacement cases just arrived at my door.
|
I emailed the information to Starmax yesterday (same I'd already sent to YesAsia), with pictures of the damage added. Have neither received a reply, nor a 'bounce'-message.
I tried to send the same message to YesAsia as a sort of backup, but all the email adresses they've used re this issue are now 'no reply'-adresses, including the one I was asked to use when they first sent out emails regarding this. I ended up leaving a message on their online customer support page saying I didn't think they'd handled this very well. |
I just hope Yeasia does something for people who dont get replacments :( as for me its 100% there fault this has happened to us, as its there job not ours really, fingers crossed we all get them.

Just posted this over at the main DVD forum:
For those on a tight budget you can get the new DTS NTSC Hong Kong Region 3 for around US$14 shipped from here |
How's the PQ compare on the HK disc?
|
I emailed YesAsia as well as StarMax. Nothing bounced.
|
I got back from Florida today. As I walk in the door, I see the package from Starmax on my couch. Thank God! I did not want to be worrying about this for another month.
|
We have full details, and shots of the front and back cover art, for the February 21st release of the 2-disc UK Old Boy Special Edition here.
Old Boy will come housed in a 2-disc Special Edition set, and will be presented with an anamorphic 2.35:1 widescreen transfer, and both Dolby Digital-EX 6.1 and DTS-ES 6.1 Korean auido tracks. Extra features (all English subbed where needed) on the first disc will include a director's audio commentary; a director and cinematographer's audio commentary; a director and cast audio commentary; a fourth commentary by film critic Kim Yong Jin; a UK exclusive interview with Park Chan-Wook; and both UK and Korean trailers. The second disc includes 2 making-of documentaries; 9 deleted scenes (with optional commentaries); another interview with Park Chan-Wook; cast & crew interviews; footage from the Cannes Film Festival; and a short film entitled Memory Of Old Boy. |
I received an email from KoreanDVDs that Starmax is sending out another batch of digipack replacements on January 12th.
In other related Oldboy news, the film is playing the Sundance Film Festival at the end of January, which should raise its US profile considerably. Oldboy has a US release date of March 25th (per IMDB). |
[QUOTE=ehonauer]I received an email from KoreanDVDs that Starmax is sending out another batch of digipack replacements on January 12th.QUOTE]
really? i just emailed them, and got a response saying that i emailed them too late, and they were only considering replacement digipaks from before december 20th, damn them!!!!!! anybody know what i can do, or where i can go to get an undamaged copy of this UE still? |
that can't be right, because Yesasia was "handling" the problem for us up until the first week of January.
