Jurassic Park JB Hi-Fi Exclusive Steelbook 8/22/12

[Tony208]

Just $15.98 over at JB Hi-Fi

https://www.jbhifionline.com.au/dvd/...eelbook/669636

I've been waiting for a US single release of the first film(not coming out anytime soon) since I'm no fan of the sequels and this looks like the cheapest Steelbook option out there. I also ordered the first BTTF, didn't like part 2 and 3 in that trilogy either

No word yet on region coding but my guess would be region free just like the trilogy and standalone amaray release

Yeah, I'm gonna get these, too.

You'll be fine though, delivery charges don't count towards the limit. It's the goods that are taxed and that's the value that counts, not the postage.

If JB Hi-Fi mark the package then it'll say $15.98 - or £10.62. Customs aren't going to then count the stamps and include that as well.

If the cost of goods to the UK is £15 or under (without the P&P) there is no tax to pay, if the cost of the goods is over £15 you pay tax on the cost of the goods and the P&P.


Ps, does anyone know if JB HiFi are customs friendly?

They have been with me in the past - have had orders for $25, $33 and $58 (all before postage) and all have come through fine.

Thanks, do they mark the package with the value of the goods?

Aslong as you're sure they're not shipping together or you'd be caught then.

Its on the way. Along with the rest of the JBhifi ones.

Although, website seems down at the moment. Cannot search it or login.

I placed two orders, separately, with one Steelbook in each, will they be shipped to the UK in one package or individually?

I take it it was G2-sized? There were a couple of people convinced it was a G1 steelbook based on the picture but it just looked like the artwork was stretched to me.

Mine's on its way, should arrive some time next week going by past JB Hi-Fi imports. Can't wait!

Yup G2 sized, nice and clean, all rating info etc is on a cardboard wrap under the plastic.

Where are you mate? I'm in Tarneit, Melbourne and it was dispatched from Altona North which is 15 mins down the road, I'm guessing that's why mine turned up today.
