Trying to place an order and keep getting an error that says

"Unfortunately there are no carriers for your area"

Anyone help ?

oldmario · 09-01-2018, 12:42 PM

has Network had one of these sales before and have they included the CG Captain Scarlet? hoping to get it for a couple quid in this sale

Ben_C · 09-01-2018, 04:34 PM

Was tempted by Wolcott in a previous sale, but didn’t buy it. Couldn’t turn it down for 3 quid.

My copies of Hot Enough for June and Ransom turned up from Amazon today...completely crushed

They have sales occasionally but I've never seen one with this level of reductions. The number of titles discounted runs into the hundreds if you factor in the ones also listed on Amazon. Must be surplus copies in the warehouse for these discounts.
CG Scarlet is far too new to be discounted this heavily.

LMFAO. Had to split an order into two to avoid the ridiculous £40 shipping fee for three measly blu-ray sets. I've had far heavier orders shipped before that kicked in in the past.

Maybe they didn't have the postcode for En flugskit i kosmos?

Some of the Ealing Rarities sets are down to £2.99 as well - often pick those up for my Dad when I can - managed to get him up to vol 13 with this sale.

I'm expecting it to be in a sale soon now, but perhaps not so cheap yet. If it's around a tenner I'll have it.

I refused to buy this one at full price because of the tinkering and lack of original 5.1 mix.

My copy of MISS LESLIE'S DOLLS has been dispatched from Amazon.UK. I hope to receive it in a week or so.

Posts elsewhere indicate it's not very good quality. Which is unusual for Network Blurays.
But I expect they did the best they could with what they had

Jobla · 09-02-2018, 10:43 PM

Well, it was probably mastered from the only-known surviving print, so I'm not expecting it to look like THE BEST YEARS OF OUR LIVES.

The movie itself was mainly intended for drive-in and grindhouse theaters, so it may not have looked terribly good even when it was brand new. Quite a few adult films of that era were shot in 16mm and then blown up to 35mm for adult-only theaters, so maybe MISS LESLIE'S DOLLS was in that category.

I've never seen the film, so I have no particular expectations for it. It's sheer rarity provoked my purchase.

Looking at the DVDBeaver caps it appears that a print was definitely used for this release, rather than an interpositive or the original camera negative. I'm still picking it up though, despite the flaws.

Btw... How come there's two of you on here now?

my order of Richard iii, moulin rouge, this sporting life and the man with the golden arm shipped from amazon.co.uk today for $23.92 to the USA

CrockettandTubbs · 09-03-2018, 01:32 PM

The Belstone Fox is available again on Network's website for £2

Didn't know Dennis Waterman was in it.

[Show spoiler]

gouryella · 09-03-2018, 03:38 PM

Anybody received The Belstone Fox yet? I remember ordering it from Zoom and 3 times I received the dvd. I noticed if I put the barcode for the Blu-ray from Network's site on Amazon it brings up the DVD. If I put the DVD barcode yes you guessed it it brings up the Blu-ray.

CouncilSpectre · 09-03-2018, 03:50 PM

I went in for another pass:

Merlin S4 - £9
Merlin S5 - £8
Wolcott - £3
Retro-Action vol 3 - £2

All blus

chip75 · 09-03-2018, 04:03 PM

I picked up Retro-Action! Vol. 3 as well as the Hitchcock BD. Looking forward to see some of those shows in high definition.

Predominantly wanted it for Danger Man in HD, but I'll happily take a peak at the others as well!

12 & 13 are still £2.99 each on AMZ - out of stock, but they'll be back.
