Marvel deals, 2 for £15, 3D 2 for £18, 4K 2 for £30, Amazon UK and Zavvi, region-free

[mark808]

Offer came back up on Amazon.uk and Ant-Man and the Wasp is now available as part of the 3D deal..

decided to pick up Black Panther, Ragnarok, Infinity War and Ant-Man/Wasp

[RBBrittain]

I placed two orders (all 3D) at Amazon -- one for Black Panther & GOTG2 which were in stock when I ordered; the other for Infinity War, Ragnarok & Ant-Man and the Wasp which were all "ship in 1-3 weeks" when I ordered (but shipped a couple of days later).

All five of those 3Ds are confirmed region-free by other blu-ray.com users (more accurate than Amazon's own listings). Disney almost never region locks its UK 3D releases (the only exception I know of is Ratatouille), and I have a region-free 3D player regardless.

It is normal for Amazon UK not to deduct VAT on Disney multi-buy offers because of how they apply them; I believe it's even mentioned in the offer terms, albeit in obtuse language. Still, despite that loss of VAT advantage and Zavvi having better shipping terms, Zavvi lost me by deleting most out-of-stock 3D titles from its site entirely until they restocked; thus I had to use Amazon to get all the non-U.S. 3D titles. (It also helped that Amazon gave me a £6-off-£30 promo for making a wishlist, and the VAT deduction also offsets most of the lost discount on orders of 1 or 3 titles.)

If you examine the order closely you'll see Amazon deducts the VAT before they apply the 2 for xx discount instead of afterwards (same way they do for Lightning Deals).

Unfortunately that really hurts those type deals to the US.

Super fast shipping! I noticed earlier this week that all 15 of the titles I wanted (12 Marvel 3D, Wonder Woman 3D, plus Agent Carter Season 1 and 2) were in stock on May 14th and ordered them. I just received all of them here in Los Angeles today, May 18th. Total: $204.83, including regular shipping.

Could someone tell me if Captain America 1-3 set from Australia works in U.S. blu ray player? the Amazon page does not say that it's region free, but it also does not have a warning that it's for a different region like I've seen on some other blu rays.

All Marvels from Disney or Sony are Region Free worldwide

Save yourself a ton of misery and NEVER, Ever look at Amazon region information.
