I don't want to keep you waiting so my Terminator pre-order which was despatched on the 27/09 arrived yesterday,that's almost two weeks,how is that even possible?a man in a rowing boat could get it here in half the time.

I'd save quite a bit if I cancelled my pre-orders for Blade Runner and Human Centipede with play.com & I don't mind waiting for Zavvi's slow service but I'm wondering do Zavvi have a reputation of not packaging Steels well? I've never bought a steel from them.

[NicWhit]

Zavvi are normally pretty good with pre-orders. Sometimes they arrive a good few days before the release date. However they do only use standard jiffy bags. Doubt they'll use anything reenforced for steels....hmmm

What to do, cancel my 4 with Play and save £12 or pay the extra and guarentee my steels won't be damaged in the post.
Agh

You should put in the title "DENTED steelbook". Seriously...they ship it in a plastic grocery bag LOL. Good luck.

[oberth127]

Seems they may have a bad rep then. For a £6 saving I think I'll just stick with play.com than risk them being damaged.

Zavvi are really good I think, I've used them for years and never had any problems. I think if you get a dented steelbook your just unlucky.

I ordered Demons / demons 2 with the a couple of weeks back and got it in mint condition no dents scratches etc so for the savings I would order but I may have just been lucky as I have only ordered once from Zavvi

[blurayisnice]

I order all the time from Zavvi.
Yes, they are extremely slow, but sometimes they've nice promotions.
I bought the Jurassic Park Limited Edition with the figure for only 20 Euro's (16 gpb), I believe its like 50 or 60 gbp on Amazon, but I could be wrong. Well, I thought that was a nice price and I received it within 10 days .

But sometimes it takes months till my items arrive.
I ordered ''The Texas Chainsaw Massacre'' like 3 months ago and its still not shipped . Zavvi is constantly sending me e-mails in which they tell me that they've to get the item from the supplier and that they apologize for the inconvenience caused. Well, I won't cancel the order. I'll only have to pay if they ship the product and it was only 4 or 5 gbp for the blu-ray, so what the hell.

[legendarymatt92]

Do you get 10% off every two steelbooks you buy? So, if, for example, you ordered four steels, you'd get 20% off? Or just the standard 10%?

And is there a code you need to type in or does it automatically do it at checkout?

[Kruger1979]

Cant seem to see that deal...I would save £10 even without the offer but I think I'd rather pay it then get even one of them turn up dented, it's bad enough getting them to send you things you've just bought, I can only imagine what the returns process is like...

[snooloui]

I think i'll stick with Play.com. I'd rather pay a little extra and have a mint Steelbook than get one that looks like a truck ran over it

[CrockettandTubbs]

I just got an email from zavvi. "Limited Edition Steelbooks from £7.45. Buy 2 - save an extra 10%."

I ordered the steelbook of Total Recall at the weekend, and it's on it's way - along with 2 other blu's. Was surprised to see them send any of my order so quick

[enigma]

Someone remind me when they charge. Is it when they ship or when you order?

[Judex]

When they ship.

Thanks for the snappy reply.

EDIT: Eh. I was going to cancel my Hellboy, Ghostbusters, and The Evil Dead steelbook order from Amazon UK and reorder from Zavvi, but it's only a $4 difference. Between "slower" shipping times, potential packaging issues, and Amazon's fantastic customer service, I'll eat that bit extra considering what it's getting me.

Ordered Se7en and The Matrix!
