Alien Box Set $21 shipped!! - Blu-ray Forum

Bladerunner5375 · 12-09-2011, 08:02 AM

hey guys, AMAZON.CO.UK has a region-free version of the Alien Blu-ray Quadrilogy for DIRT cheap. Although the packaging is different(its a slip-case with a multi-disc blu-ray case), it only cost me $21 SHIPPED!!!! I got it as a gift for a friend, and while the case isn't as cool as the american version, I have to say, the american version actually doesn't hold the discs so well! check this deal out NOW!!!

Yep - great deals from our friends across the pond as usual.

It's a fantastic deal, I got mine about a week ago, & I like the solid little box it comes in.

Thanks for the tip!

I snapped one up, just for the better packaging than the US set....after it arrives, I'm going to sell off the other one.

They're the same as the US.

Gold Ranger · 12-09-2011, 03:02 PM

Wait, just thought of something...
Are the extras all the same?

rdkimes · 12-09-2011, 03:14 PM

Everything is exactly the same except for the little 12 and 18 number things they put on the box and the discs. I got a copy of the set from the UK and it's great, especially for the price!!

Old Bones · 12-09-2011, 03:15 PM

These cheap deals on things that were released over a year ago are redundent as 99.99% of the consumers bought it in the first month or two

just curious, but how did you only have to pay $21? I recently bought the set for the same price, and with shipping to the u.s., i'm paying $23.97.

I'm happy with this deal, but i've seen other posts also claiming to have gotten the set for $20 and i want to know if i'm missing something and not saving a few bucks.

man amazon.com uk is having a hell of a time with my debit card. And Of course I can't call international on my cell. WTF to they want all the info is correct??

M@GiC · 12-12-2011, 02:33 PM

i got this last week for roughly $23 to the US as well. Great deal though!
