No Harry Potter gift set box on Amazon.UK and DE ? - Blu-ray Forum

Algernon · 10-19-2007, 05:04 PM

The German site only has some cheap looking 1-5 BD set ...
( http://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B000...147758-5428005 )

not the grand "gift box" offered by Amazon.COM ...
( http://www.amazon.com/Limited-Sorcer...blurayforum-20 )

The BD gift set also vanished from the UK site ... (only there in the "other" format)

Any inside info on that?

Thanks!

It's there in "normal" DVD ... but who would want that ...

Algernon · 10-20-2007, 12:13 PM

Everyone from Europe importing from the US?

Or waiting for the 7-BD-Box?

DrinkMore · 10-20-2007, 12:17 PM

Hell, I will take the one from Germany! It looks like it has individual BD cases/discs which is (better imo) nice than the carboard box set that the US has.

How do you guys feel about Dumbledore being gay?

Joe Cain · 10-20-2007, 12:45 PM

umm...what?
Are you speaking of Michael Gambon the actor, or the character?

Joe Cain · 10-20-2007, 12:49 PM

Ahh--found the BBC story. Fascinating.

I saw that article on Yahoo this morning. Interesting twist to keep HP alive in the news?

DrinkMore · 10-20-2007, 03:47 PM

First things first - I could care less.

Secondly, it's a publicity stunt. Plain and simple. A person like JK Rowling would not intentionally make a character such as Dumbledore "Gay". It does not fit the story and it seems very out of place. Why no mention of it until now? Because there are no more books

Either way I think she is full of it.

So you do care somewhat? Because otherwise you could NOT care less ...

No, seriously, I wonder why - if they label it "Amazon-exclusive", this only seems to apply to the US version ...

w_tanoto · 10-22-2007, 09:58 AM

it's been removed from my wishlist.... come on, amazon UK. I was ready to order it.

Dumbledore being gay? I don't care. I found the story this morning in BBC>

SomethingForKate · 10-22-2007, 10:52 AM

It's a stunt. You mean to tell me she's JUST NOW telling people he is gay? 5 movies in, all books complete and over and she NOW tells people he is gay? Come on, if people can't put 2 and 2 together, there is a problem.

JK Rowling - YOUR A DAMN LIAR!

probably the american version. see its release date.

Caladriusse · 10-22-2007, 07:42 PM

I heard that in Britain the suitcase box set was to be DVD only.

It is thought this is because very few people buy Blu-ray here.

Sparrow79 · 10-23-2007, 09:20 AM

Does someone know if there's german Audio on all Harry Potter Discs?
If the informations i've are correct at least Harry Potter 5 has german audio.
http://www.dvdtimes.co.uk/content.php?contentid=65847

I would like to import them when there's german audio on all Discs, because it's cheaper than the german box and the US Box looks really cool.

German Box at amazon.de 118€ = 168$
US Box at amazon.com 105$ = 74€
