These orders were from very early October, so I'm losing faith in that explanation. Who knows, though.

Same here. With slip.

If I get the Paranormal Activity set remains to be seen (it has shipped apparently).

No, its just rarewaves, they use a 3rd party to do post on the cheapo side, ends up coming royal mail but gets handled inbetween and thats where they get lost or take years to receive.

Nothing to do with Royal Mail, its to do with Rarewaves and whistl,
they haven't changed all year, i'm very experienced with them and how they post items.

They didn't have the stock at the time to give you a replacement that's why you got a refund, many people received it, including me.
Event Horizon had less stock available than the other misprices, but its been restocked now unfortunately at correct price.

Just to let you know, it's nothing to do with Royal Mail,this is common rarewaves practice.

My average is 9-10 days for UK mainland... so Ireland would be more.. 12-20 days if you do get it.

I wouldn't mind if it was "free" postage but they charged 6 euros for the snail mail. Normal royal mail takes 2-3 days to make it across.

oh man sry to hear that, obviously free post UK, thats not cool!

I asked them for a tracking number but they didn't give one so I presume its some cheapo delivery service. 9-10 days in the UK is pretty hopeless too.

My cheap 4K Benedetta arrived in Dublin today from Rarewaves. It was posted 18th Oct.

2 packages from rarewaves arrived safely this morning. They seem to be have sent via the French post office.

[BDBert]

For those keeping track of Rarewaves shipping duration: the <£10 Benedetta 4K (with slip) arrived on Monday 31 Oct; they sent me an email on 14 Oct informing me that my order had shipped.

The other three 4Ks in that order arrived on 27 Oct: https://forum.blu-ray.com/showpost.p...ostcount=20136

all_your_music on eBay have discounted a few more Imprint titles to under £15, plus a further discount if you get 3:

Let It Ride
Breakdown (Kurt Russell)

They did also have A Reflection of Fear and The Awakening with Charlton Heston, but they seem to have gone out of stock.

Nothing for me this time anyway.

Well this is strange, I ordered the new giallo essentials (£10 off) and Gotham complete blu ray set from rarewaves 2 days ago and it arrived today (Royal Mail 48) but still no sign of event horizon. I have asked for a final replacement to be sent today if not I’m getting my refund

Toy Story 3 showed up from RW yesterday or today (wasn’t in) so that was faster then my other 4K I got. Hopefully your one, or many, copy of Event shows up.

How was it shipped and in what condition did it arrive?

In a cardboard box with cardboard shavings and plastic air bags...hopefully this is a new trend, they have never done that before, they would stick steelbooks in jiffy bags etc...but maybe its just down to being a larger item. Its perfect condition.
