Australia Firefly: The Complete Series (Steelbook) [Australia]

Lenticular magnet, right? Looks that way from the picture.

Does anyone know if the UK release also has a lenticular magnet cover?

I'd say that looks more like embossing than a lenticular magnet

Expect the UK to be identical

I don't want to take the chance that the covers will be different between countries.

I really wish the picture were clearer.

pre-ordered for now

I'm sure the UK one will be the same, looks great with the title debossed!

Oh, maybe you're right

Well, I'll just keep both pre-orders for now and cancel the Australian one if it turns out to be the same as the U.K. cover. The preliminary artwork on Amazon.co.uk doesn't seem to indicate that the title is debossed. Have to wait for the final pics.

I am guessing they don't since I could not find it on their website, but does anyone know if they ship internationally?

Shipping is kind of high, almost $13 to ship to the U.S.

That is pretty high, but still not as bad as Canada and ll they have to do there is ship it over an imaginary line.

One thing though when I am trying to set up my account it is saying my the cell phone number I put in is invalid and will not let me create the account. Not sure how to get around this.

That's weird, try putting it in the landline spot instead of the cell phone spot.

Well the problem is that both the landline and cell phone fields are required. I don't want to take this thread any further topic so I will just have to try and figure it out.

Dude are you serious? $13 to fly across from the other part of the world for this is cheap.

Shipping it locally will cost you $3....and the distance it will cover to ship it from Australia is at least 10x as much.

I am digging this cover the most. Seems better than the Amazon.uk release and if the title is embossed or lenticular with the side borders embossed. Oh man, count...me...in

You actually don't have to put anything in the mobile field. I went through the same nonsense. Then I decided to leave that field blank, and it worked.

But it's entirely possible this is the exact same steelbook as the one from the U.K. I have no clue.

Thanks man, I will have to try that out once I can get on their website. Whenever I try to go on there now I keep getting this message

"121Not enough storage is available to complete this operation."

Yeah, I'm getting the same error message from that site sometimes too (but not constantly).
Looks like they ran out of server space or something.

Seems like a minor error / it's likely the website is going through monthly maintenance.

Here's a solution... just remove the www. from the address and proceed w/ http://jbhifionline.com.au/

When you need to sign up / do the same thing.
