Is that version of avatar playable on region B players? I've seen mixed comments on different forums.

Disc 1 is Region A, C

not sure about the korean version, you would have too check the specific thread for it in the steelbook discussion forum. i have the hong kong version from them and movie disc is Region's A + C, while the other 2 discs with it are A,B,C...so it strange.

At Yesasia you can request that put in double bubblewarp for your order. I have placed 3 order's with them and requested the extra bw. Also make sure you are on the usa/yesasia site.

In for 1... $3.50 more than the going rate for the non-Steelbook version...

Actually, the HK has A+B disc one and the rest are ABC, just like in every other version. So if you're after region B playable version, HK is the one.

If I place an order for in-stock movies on Amazon.de and along with some that are preorders, will they ship the movies that are available now?... Do they hold them and ship everything together?... I don't want to get hit with 2 $20 delivery charges if they break up the order...

[LAZORKITTEH]

In my cases they always shipped what was available.

Did they charge you more than the standard $20 fee?...

As long as you leave shipping set as "group my items together," no matter whether they split them up or wait & send them all, you only pay the $20 once

It's ultimately their decision how they send them, but they won't ever charge you extra unless you choose the "send my items as soon as they're available (extra charges apply)" setting... same setup our AZ uses

BTW all those Avatar Steels are G2
From what I read about the different countries' versions though, all of the Korean SteelBook's discs are NOT region-B compatible... sorry

You can compare the different Steels on this page:

http://www.yesasia.com/us/search/blu...k-en/list.html

They've got the RE (Umbrella) Trilogy Steel too, as long as the $82 price-tag doesn't make your

Oh yeah, when ordering Steels (if there's a place for it) I always write a msg requesting that they please, if possible, use bubble-wrap & ship them in a box to avoid damages during shipping... it never hurts to ask

They charge flat rate fee 14 Euro per order regardless of quantity. For pre-order, I think it depends on how soon that pre-order will be released. For instance, I ordered 5 steels + Grindhouse on Jan, eventually the first 5 steels came first and Grindhouse came later, approximately 2-3 weeks after the first order. However, I once ordered 3 amarays+ 2 steels + Tron + Green Hornet. So far, just 2 amarays and 1 steel came now, the rest will arrive with Tron on June. Hope this info will help you more or less.

Thanks... I assumed they would only charge 1 shipping fee if the order is broken up but just wanted to make sure...

They have a free-shipping policy for orders over €20 to The Netherlands (and possibly more), and they didn't charge me for the two shipments.

[moviefiend1977]

yep, they break down the shipping accordingly as well
...so if you were to order 14 SteelBooks, but they only sent you 4 of them 1st, they'll charge you 4 EU shipping, then 1 EU/SteelBook as they're dispatched
Hope that makes sense
