Whenever I chose the cheaper shipping option I received damaged steels.

What is the price difference between the regular shipping and the expedited?

Thanks

If you buy enough, I remember it being only like 5-7 euros or so more.

Not much of a difference if you're in for a lot.

Eh, I'll just wait for a group buy, saves me the trouble.

That's good to know, I'll try that next time.

Thanks,

I love how there's no reversed spine. Good thing, huge pet peeve of mine.

I just canceled an order I had on amazon.fr, and now there's a charge pending on my card for $1.48. What gives?

Are you sure its a steelbook? I know the picture obviously reveals the usual steelbook spine, however, there is only one listing for the Gran Torino blu-ray at amazon.fr. Wouldn't there also be a standard amaray edition listed as well? I mean, for example, we get the standard amaray Dark Knight and then an SB version. Wouldn't it be the same there?

Not really. Warner might be planning to release this as a SteelBook only.

anomynous · 06-14-2009, 08:08 AM

I emailed amazon.fr, and they have no idea if it's actually going to be a Steelbook or not.

But this is a random CSR, so take it for what it's worth

I was looking at howwons list and it says fnac exlusive, is there any more word if amazon has this?

It's simply because the list hasn't been updated. That's partially my fault, as I was the one who said it was an Exclusive to start with. :P
This is a nationwide release and I'm pretty sure it'll be the only version you can buy.

iori · 06-27-2009, 12:53 PM

oh ok, just making sure. Thanks

Yes, but doesn't the FNAC version come with the FNAC Exclusive booklet as shown in the picture at FNAC, while the amazon version will just be the steelbook on its own.

Yes yes, you're right about that. I just mean that the SteelBook itself isn't FNAC exclusive.

That's exactly why I'm getting the FNAC edition.

victors you always PM me before I make my mind.

You know I own all the FNAC Blu-Ray Steelbooks (even non-exclusive) why would I stop.

Cheers,

Can any tell me what are in the FNAC booklets. Do they just contain photo's / artwork or is there written material inside (if so I presume its in French).

Generally, they'll contain some production notes. Sometimes, it'll be a reprint of a magazine article or a special edition of a magazine about the movie.
Sometimes you get some artwork cards or whatnot.
