A youtube reviewer obsessed with stuff looking all shiny like? Say it ain't so!!

Was there any mention of a “mild yellow tint”?

A YouTube Reviewer that doesn't know Michael J Fox had a very smooth face (still does mostly). But calling aggressive anyway.

Well today was the day that I was "supposed to" get the trilogy set from gruv-enterainment that was on eBay a month ago or so for $9.99. Either I won't get it all or it'll ship out in time so I'll get it by the 20th. I want to send them a email but if I do I don't want to mess up the pricing and they may see the error and charge me full price.

By law, they can't add on more charges after already being paid.

You ordered a spare in case you need a replacement packaging?

This just means that somebody like me who wanted one cannot get one.

No, in case the discs are scratched. I have yet to have a UHD set in these types of sleeves that didnt require an exchange. Well, except for Spidrrman which also had scratched discs but I opened after the return period ended. The regular set is not limited.

No, but they could cancel the orders and refund the money. That way they're not at a loss.

I've had Amazon literally cancel days before release (the distributor actually mentioned the title on social media saying how well it was doing in the pre-order chart). Folks emailing them asking if they'll honor the order won't even be flagged until they hit their limit and it gets pushed up the chain.

The seller has no bearing on when a cancellation would happen, my point was that you can have a pre-order for months and it can be cancelled at the last minute. I'm not saying the GRUV orders will be, but thinking it's too late for them to cancel them now isn't always apt.

Yes, they know about the error, but until the the right (or wrong) person knows about it, it will be business as usual with most companies.

My $7.50 Jurassic 4k set shipped
My fast and furious 4k set is still backordered.
Universal definitely knows about the price. They are honoring them.

I've had GRUV's UK equivalent ZOOM (which is owned by Sony as well) cancel orders (after taking the money and dispatching the item) as well if that helps. My point was that orders can be cancelled the day after placing them or the day before you're supposed to receive them. There's no consistency to it.

This is about orders in general. We've already had some of these GRUV offers ship.

I’d never believe I would be receiving a too-good-to-be-true misprice deal until I was actually clutching it in my cold spindly fingers.

The Gruv eBay store also gave me that date. Check your eBay inbox. You should have a message from Gruv that states that “your new release(s) will be held in our system and will be dispatched to you in time to arrive on the release date.” The Oct 8 date was probably generated by eBay.

ThePhantom · 10-10-2020, 10:26 PM

I'm starting to wonder if the $9.99 pricing error was actually a clever ploy by some Universal/GRUV employee to get the pre-order numbers up.

singhcr · 10-11-2020, 05:02 AM

I had to cancel my credit card earlier this week as I lost it.

I called GRUV to see if I could change my card to my new CC# when it arrives, pay with PayPal etc and I was worried that I would lose out on this price. They said they could change it, and worst case I could cancel and pre-order again. I flat out asked them if they would honor the price I locked it in as, as it is now $50 instead of $10. They said they would honor the lower price.

Looks like we need a separate GRUV chit chat thread.

I found a UK unboxing of the blu ray. The back cover says they are remastered.

An unboxing video of the UK Blu Ray set from the Uk Blu Ray thread.

I imagine the 4k set would look pretty similar, so I guess I was wrong it is a foldout despite my thinking the box size made it look like individual cases.

Based on what I can see here I may try and get the 4k Korea set with cases, this looks a bit gawdy in my opinion.
