The Sinbad Trilogy (1958 - 1977) - Indicator / Powerhouse - Page 5 - Blu-ray Forum

[QUOTE=Aclea;13499939]In simple terms that's because lap dissolves were created in an optical printer, which means you move one generation away from the original negative.

I think that you are usually more than one generation away.

For those waiting, this is now available to pre-order on HMV's UK online store.

Same as Zavvi's price, £44.99.

I'm definitely waiting for this one to go down in price.

MifuneFan · 04-28-2017, 12:26 PM

Amazon lowered their price to 44.99 now.

With VAT removed and shipping added (for US customers), the final total would be £40.57. So £2.43 cheaper than Indicator direct. Works for me!

Very cool. The Camels alerted me to the 44.99 price and I was pleasantly surprised to get that lower price.

What nice box of goodies!

39.99 at base, which comes out to 35.01 shipped to the US (and to a number of other international destinations)!

In the PQ department yes - audio, no it should featured its Dolby Atmos mix

Back in topic though - what's the hertz rate for the supplements - I've been burned too many times when my US television can't playback 50 kHz encoded content

Please decode "39.99 at base, which comes out to 35.01"

Like Amazon, they remove VAT for non-EU buyers (taking it to 33.32 GBP) and shipping is then only 1.69 GBP on top.

But who is 'they'?

I've only seen HMV and Amazon prices discussed, which totals £40.57 = $52.55

Base.com

Yep cancelled and placed my order with Base. Ordered a few arrow titles there recently and they all arrived within a week to the states in perfect condition.

Excellent - just did the same - I had never heard of Base.

RazorwireRyan · 04-30-2017, 08:26 PM

That dreaded question, but never used them so, do they charge on delivery or pre-order?

Charged on despatch.

Never heard of Base.com before but it looks like they also have the Pre-order Price Guarantee thing that Amazon has. Do they do a good job with packaging? Amazon scares the hell out of me overtime that I order from them. You never know how they are going to ship something. Sometimes there is bubble wrap and sometimes the item is just thrown in a box. I learnt pretty quickly not to order nice box sets from them, as 8 out 10 times it arrives damaged. Normally, I do better with a regular dvd or blu-ray. But, lately, not having much luck with that.

Anthony Thorne · 05-01-2017, 05:54 AM

Based on Facebook comments from people involved with the disc, the recently-shot Tom Baker interview for this release is better than excellent - it's reportedly very long, funny and he has a lot to say. I'm looking forward to this release.

roy neary · 05-01-2017, 03:36 PM

Slightly off topic but does anyone know if Indicator have any plans for other Harryhausen films? Specifically I'd like to see 3 Worlds of Gulliver as the TT version would cost me close to $60 CDN from their website! And that's just nuts.

SMOOT · 05-01-2017, 05:46 PM

I have not ordered many titles from outside the USA, so I'm a bit confused.

The Base.com site is new information to me, but I looked them up and they have The Sinbad Trilogy for 39.99 pounds.

So,

1.
does that mean it is 39.99 minus the VAT ? Which, if yes, would equal what ?
2.
does Base.com charge your credit card at the moment of order or upon shipment?
3.
do they raise or lower the price if the price changes prior to shipment?
