Still same office, Same Staff and thy still operate from belgium.

I dont think that anyone from Freerecordshop HQ in capelle, Holland is truly looking at their website or intertwining with their operations.

As long as they bring money in and the finances are looking good, its just another company operating under their established name, but owned by freerecordshop.

OMG, I just received my first steelbook boomerang in the mail.

Mediadis are idiots shipping a steelbook in a bubble mailer that is thinner than most. I've demanded a replacement. This is a crap service it almost 3 weeks to arrive and its L shaped. I will not use this company again what a load of crock.

In part... I should know, I'm Belgian and pass in front of the warehouse every week.
A lot of the discs are shipped from Holland lately and customer service (entirely FRS operated) has only become worse. They sent me a wrong disc 3 weeks ago and I still haven't got my money back...

I was able to get a full refund for some SteelBooks that came in damaged, and they gave me 10 Euros in store credit for the return shipping. Just contact them on their website about your order. They are not amazon, but they do work with you.

They offered a replacement if I supplied pics. Eat your heart out guys.

That's not so bad is it? Just bent it a little back, and you never noticed it's there! =)

JK, it's a damn shame!

damn I am glad mine did not show up like that, it was kind of poorly packaged for such a long trip, but I am fortunate my copy showed up in mint condition, very happy here.

Drewza89 · 10-16-2010, 10:06 PM

Well, I just overpaid for one on eBay.

A least I'll have the peace of mind from knowing that it's in the US and it will be packaged securely.

Drewza89 · 10-23-2010, 09:55 PM

My copy came in today. Man, this thing is slick looking! Pictures don't do it justice.

richieb1971 · 10-27-2010, 12:00 PM

Update.

Mediadis (Wendy) contacted me today to apologize for my order and the late dispatch of the replacement. According to her they are out of Steelbooks for TR but they are restocking at the end of this week. My replacement order will be dispatched at that time.

Hellrazor · 10-27-2010, 02:28 PM

These are now selling 3 for €30 in the local Freerecordshops...They are new, but not sealed!

Ben_R · 11-21-2010, 12:48 AM

Is this the only uncut version available or are other uncut releases?

I believe that there is also a German Uncut version, but released in limited numbers.

Yep theres a German Version which is limited and OOP since close after release the Steel itself is the same as the NL one just an other paper inlay

Kryptonic · 12-10-2010, 09:32 AM

Is the one on Amazon.fr region free? And also, how does this compare to the Optimum BD release as far as PQ/AQ go? Thanks.
