I just realized I own not a single Alfred Hitchcock film on blu-ray.

How do you get this ^ offer to work? I added 2 £6.50 titles from this offer to my cart and the total is £13.00 not £10.00 as it should be. I was just curious how much it would cost to have 2 of them shipped here to the USA. I think its gonna be about $20 for 2 so that isn't too bad.

The discount shows up at checkout, here's an example using Rear Window, and Vertigo:

Items
£10.84 (this is the total with VAT removed)
Promotion Applied -£0.84 (this is the discount to bring it to a flat £10)
Estimated Postage & Packaging £4.07
Estimated Order Total £14.07

That's about $23 US shipped

Make sure both of your titles have the promotion mentioned under the price on the product page, I guess. I'm just curious how they chose them because there's quite a few £6-£10 titles I'd get but they don't mention the promo on their page. & I really can't sit here and scroll through page after page. If you search under the "Two for £10" titles it brings up films in the price range but no mention of the promo on their product page and when added to the cart the total exceeds £10 even through checkout. So, I'm confused as well. If you do get it to work, shipping will probably be around £4.50.

I have been waiting for the blu-ray release on these titles for a long time, June 3rd can't come soon enough!

Of course these get announced a week after I ordered Vertigo and Rear Window from the UK. That's ok because they were $24 shipped, and I have no interest in the digital copies. The cover art on these suck. The UK editions are better, but not by much and the rating logos suck. I have some awesome customs of the original poster art from a generous member here ready to go.

I would assume the original mono track will be included on Vertigo, which is not on the UK edition.

RandyK · 03-19-2014, 12:13 AM

Not sure if I want to get Psycho now or wait for a potential 55th anniversary release. Hmm.....

Definitely plan on getting all of these. Slipcovers would be fantastic, but thats just wishful thinking.

MrClarke · 03-19-2014, 12:29 AM

I have the original release of Psycho. I got Rear Window & Vertigo from the UK. I've been wanting the Birds though!

deltatauhobbit · 03-19-2014, 12:45 AM

Huge Hitchcock fan yet I don't even own a blu yet. Been waiting on the Birds since it's my favorite of his, hopefully it does get a separate release. I've so wanted to pull the trigger on the set that's on sale right now but I'm just not a fan of the packaging (heard horror stories of the glue seams coming undone, etc). Although it looks like the Birds may be up in the air for a single US release, at least I can console myself with Rear Window, my 2nd fave.

Finally! Jesus. They sure took their sweet time with this announcement.

That was one of those exclamations that doesn't quite have the same effect in written form as it does verbally.
