I ordered something from Amazon.fr the same day as Amazon UK, from France already shipped, UK, radio silence.

Doesn't surprise me, of all the nearby Amazons the fr website always seems to dispatch and deliver much faster than it, de and es, which themselves generally are faster than the co.uk site.

Amazon have despatched my order of Gregory's Girl 4k - ordered at the price error of £12.99. Fingers crossed its not The Grace of God that arrives...
It's bizarre they've cancelled some orders - I would be onto customer services asking for credit to buy again for the equivalent value when it's available. Thats worked for me before, I think a similar issue occured with Indicator's release of Irreversible

Edit: just arrived and all is good

Yeah, mine just got despatched as well for tomorrow. No movement on CotF yet but that's a good sign.

"Crimes of the future" 4k still shows as not orderable for me - probably just for non-UK residents.

The regular 4K is there to order for me in the UK but the LE isn't. I'd forgotten this was due out and saw it in HMV yesterday, my amazon order is still saying Saturday. I'll be very annoyed if they've messed up and not got enough stock because they had an egregious misprice for almost the entire pre-order period. I ordered it when it was full price but my card expired and I had to update the details last month, hope that didn't put be to the back of a queue.

Aye, ordered Crimes of the Future on the 6th of July for 25 quid. States that it's arriving Sat 16th.

We shall see.

It does. Amazon is a nightmare if you have to change anything on a limited edition order. The only blessing is in fact the same thing that has caused your problem in the first place: when they go to actually dispatch these to customers, if some of their cards get declined for whatever reason, the system seems to automatically move on to the next order in line. So if your card declines on a limited edition you're often shit outta luck too.

I always find it strange when companies can't simply fulfil in original order date order. I know amazon can be further complicated by having so many fulfilment centres, but having to update payment methods must be so common (i knew the card was going to expire when I ordered but I didn't know what the new details would be yet so it has to happen) it's quite infuriating.
Second Sight have posted that their warehouse move meant they had some delays posting out their regular editions of this and It Follows, so fingers crossed the delay from amazon isn't indicative of anything. I see HMV are sold out but Second Sight currently still have stock of the LE to order so hopefully there are still an option if amazon falls through.

Gregory's girl just shipped.

[Cinematt]

My Crimes of the Future LE, which I ordered in June at full price before they mispriced it, is now saying I'll get it in November. Fat chance of that!

[nishomac]

Crimes of the future 4k dispatching now, oh yes. So two mismatch price they have honoured. Gregory’s girl and crimes of the future. Not bad

[CavebobSpongeman]

Amazon are amazing! Apparently my CotF is arriving today...and it hasn't even been dispatched yet. Now that is FAST, woooo! *sarcasm*

I just got a email saying it won’t be arriving today and they can’t give me an estimated new delivery date yet.

[CavebobSpongeman]

Well they have an estimated delivery date for me...of Nov 13th-MARCH 25th, that is QUITE the estimate. F*** it I'm just gonna cancel it. Absolute clown shoes!
