Anyone here dealt with HMV.JP? Do they ship via DHL?

**EDIT** Just discovered HMV use EMS and not those greedy Inglourious Basterds DHL. Canceled with Amazon, ordered with HMV.

razor81 · 01-07-2011, 11:22 AM

Pre-order from amazon.jp

DK06CTR · 01-07-2011, 07:33 PM

HMV.JP back out of stock

If you want to buy Japanese Steelbook, you have to be quick before the deadline. No supply after the deadline no matter how many copies sold how many left.

DK06CTR · 01-09-2011, 05:53 PM

So basically what your saying feilong is that only the amount pre ordered will be made? up to a maximum of 5000 so if they dont sell 5000 this could be very limited then because they may only have 2000-3000 pre orders could be interesting.

and also that would mean you will only get this steelbook of you have pre ordered it

after that it wont be available

normally, japanese studios set a deadline for their limited edition, say, x weeks after the official release date. Or 2 weeks before the next lower-price edition come out. We don't know.

Just all in a sudden, they are no longer available from most vendors because many vendors avoid keeping too much stock. If the supply from a studio stop, then they are unable to get stock for the current customer orders. Regardless how many items are sold, the rest will be discarded after deadline.

I wish they would discard a couple copies in my mailbox each time this happens.

Seriously though, went ahead and preordered my copy from amazon.jp

Honestly, a pretty terrible movie like this, I don't think they can sell a Limited Edition for more than a thousand. Forget about 5000

I take it I can't use my US Amazon account? I've tried logging in but it's not working. Been able to use it on the UK, French, and German Amazon sites but not the JP one.

Anyone in Japan willing to help out a Canadian? Trying to avoid the high shipping and customs fees.

Imo this isn't a terrible movie, it works quite well with a little Mission Impossible in it as well as some romance. Previously they were in the well made but dark "Vanilla Sky" so they have chemistry in "Knight And Day" and they work well together. I give it an 8/10. I really enjoyed it but I don't need a Steelbook for it happy with the amaray Blu-ray edition. A sequel could have been made for this film but that will never happen I guess since it was considered a disappointment based on domestic box office results and poor reception. Overall it's a well made film and entertaining, but for some reason some people are turned off by it, I have no idea why.

Hmmm... you are the first person to say something good about it.

I now have some interset in this steelbook.

It's officially "out of print" about 1 month after its intial release in japan. i won't go further but i think you should know what happens behind. and you should know why so many Japanse CDs/DVDs are floating around the Far East markets for quite a while even though they are "officially out of print" in japan. for a BD or DVD that limited to "5000 sets", it's not considered RARE.
