Ghostbusters 2 Steelbook (Zavvi Exclusive) (Limited Edition) (Ultra Limited) (UK) - Page 4 - Blu-ray Forum

The only trouble is, not getting the 2 pack digibook means you miss out on Part 1 of the new roundtable discussion that's on Disc 1. There's also a Gallery and Music Video too. If it were just those features then I'd be happy to pass on it but it's not.

I'm going to be sticking to the digibook for the complete package

That's my reasoning too. Those sort of roundtable discussions are often my favourite type of special features to watch so I'm looking forward to them

Your smaller or more regional studios (Studiocanal, Lionsgate, Alliance, Concorde) in most cases are the ones that lock their titles.

Thanks for the info! I'll try to remember this going forward when deciding when I should import a steelbook.

I hate that Germany uses numbers and not roman numerals. That is the one and only reason I never imported the German Hangover steelbooks. How can you leave THE out and use numbers.

I never noticed that until you guys mentioned it. Like it or not I may have to go with the Zavvi steelbook. At least then the title and the spines will match.

SethRex · 07-04-2014, 12:15 AM

Hmm see now I don't know whether I want the digibook or the german steelbook.

SethRex · 07-04-2014, 01:56 AM

Hate to be a noob but what's the word on pre-order payment methods on Zavvi? for that matter do they take your payment before it even shipts? Cause i want to buy both steelbooks for 1 and 2 and I just want to know what's up? I tried looking for their FAQ section but it's like they don't even link to it assuming they even have one.

I believe they don't charge till it ships but don't hold me to that.
Zavvi has a nice little problem about getting stock in and when they do they charge your card right away and ship it. So always make sure if you buy from Zavvi to have money in that account or you'll get hit with overdraft fees.

They take paypal as well.

Why can I see a paypal payment transaction pending in my paypal account?

When opting to pay via paypal, you will see a notification in your paypal
account which authorises the payment to be taken when your order is ready for despatch. Until despatch payment is not debited from your paypal account.

Steelguy · 07-05-2014, 10:58 PM

Looking forward to this, hope the back is as good, maybe Zavvi's bad packaging changes again in time for release, doubt it though.
