Anyone in the UK pre-ordered the Digibook for The Babadook from JB Hi-Fi? - Blu-ray Forum

TheArcane · 10-30-2014, 06:29 PM

So I ordered it about a week back and it was dispatched yesterday but I forgot about all the import charges i'll have to pay, cost of the blu +shipping comes to about £20 but having done a quick check looks like i'll be paying close to £33 once Royal Mail are done with me, anyone else ordered from them in the past and been done on charges?

Only once for Finding Nemo 3D, which is about £22 converted. Had to pay £8 to RM. But since then I've ordered a bundle when they had 3 titles for $ which came to way more than Nemo and no charges, so could go either way.

Was interested when I read Digibook then, turns out it's a Digipack-ugh!

Shame

Heard great things about this film though, looks decent.

As for RM charges, ordered loads over the years at JB well over the limit and never been charged.

Couldn't resist ordering this. Have heard nothing but good things about the film. Fingers crossed I don't get nobbled by customs!!!

What's the average delivery time from JB to the UK?

Good movie, definitely worth it. Very creepy.

Yep, if anyone get's their copy please let us know on this thread so the rest of us get an idea of when it's due. I have ordered a steelpack/sleeve of Senna from them before but I don't recall how long it took to arrive.

Mine was sent yesterday from them, let you know when it gets here

Curses!!!

Sky_Captain · 11-05-2014, 08:25 PM

Takes about a week for most items.

Sinthetic · 11-06-2014, 02:05 PM

Got mine today. No customs charges and region free.

Skog · 11-06-2014, 02:30 PM

Does look pretty badass, film any good though?

Also, that's the first time I've seen a half star rating on a cover, weird.

levcore · 11-06-2014, 02:37 PM

I'm a huge horror fan and yes it was a good horror movie but its not something I fancy rewatching anytime soon and could easily be one I never watch again, let alone purchase. Its definitely worth at least one watch though.

Dickieduvet · 11-06-2014, 03:45 PM

"Babadook DOOOOOOOK"

That scene in the middle of the film

[Show spoiler]

scared the shat outta me.

Very effective, creepy flick. I'll wait for the UK release.

It has a 96% fresh rating on rotten tomatoes with 45 reviews.

TheArcane · 11-06-2014, 07:00 PM

Yep got mine today aswell no customs chargers, going to watch it now.

Kwebbotaurus · 11-07-2014, 12:24 PM

Starting to get worried mine has been hit by customs, it shipped on 28 October & my previous pre-order with JB Hi-fi only took 5 days to arrive.

& still nothing.

RickWJ324 · 11-11-2014, 12:17 PM

Can you guys confirm whether or not the movie is 1080p or 1080/50i? I've seen it listed both ways?! I don't mind if the extras are 50i, but I was hoping that the movie itself is 1080p.

Thanks! Rick
