SRP for SAW: U.S. Director's Cut - Blu-ray Forum

Filmmaker · 02-23-2010, 02:38 AM

I've imported this from Amazon.de and, for cataloguing purposes, I always compare the suggested retail price with what I paid. However, I've visited every German retailer I know of and can find no trace of the SRP for this title. U.S. sites commonly show the SRP, then the sale price as a comparison, so you can see the percentage of your savings, but apparently, this isn't regular practice in Germany, where the sites just show the selling price. Can anyone help me out here?

Isn't it something about not selling the Uncut versions in stores or online. It's something like that. It was discussed in the German Boxset for Scream.

Saw was cut for a "Not under 16" rating from the FSK, so the uncut version is FSK 18 (Not under 18), which is heavily regulated for public sale (meaning not really available in stores).

Huh...interesting, and very different from U.S. practices. Nonetheless, wouldn't Lionsgate still offer a SRP for online vendors?

As far as I can tell, Amazon.de don't display any MSRP for any Blu-ray/DVD.
