Re: watchmen ultimate cut, £24.00

Fair enough. Just looks badly written, has no contact details apart from a hotmail account, states he is a one man operation and marks packages under value for customs, and only takes paypal and google checkout!

Re: watchmen ultimate cut, £24.00

Quite a few people on the forum used this chap for 'Transformers 2 IMAX Edition' without any problems (myself included).

However, it might be worth checking with him to see how he'll package Watchmen UC. The set looks like it will need posting in a protective box if it's going to make the journey across the pond unscathed.

Re: watchmen ultimate cut, £24.00

these have been very good for me so far

queried when my order was being shipped and he e-mailed me straight away.

loads of people have used them for the IMAX trandformers 2 blu and have had no problem.

Re: watchmen ultimate cut, £24.00

Ordered. £26 including delivery.

Edit:

It can be had for £23.19 at Amazon.com, but want it quicker and know I'll get it quicker via this guy.

Re: watchmen ultimate cut, £24.00

Every single Blu-Ray release by WB has so far been region free. In addition to this, Axel Music has yet to actually test the discs to confirm this, so we still don't know know. What we can say however and what Axel Music DID say, was that the title will most likely be region free (a fair assumption).

I would imagine both AxelMusic and Movietyme would have confirmation of the region coding at some point today.

Hopefully

Re: watchmen ultimate cut, £24.00

If I were to purchase this title it would be from Axelmusic, at around £35, all in. Avoid Movietyme at all costs. They are asking £35.99. Add VAT plus the Royal Mails £8.00 handling fee and you are looking at a cost of around £49.40.

Movietyme paid vat & custom charges,and order posted from within the UK,
so no royal mail handling fee.

Are you sure about this? I've just done a search of the Movietyme site and can find no mention of items being shipped from within the E.U? I thought only Axelmusic did this.

Movietyme ship from within the UK on items that may get hit by customs.

All the time I have ordered from them I have never incurred any extra costs.

Re: watchmen ultimate cut, £24.00

My Watchmen order from Blurays for everyone has had my payment refunded

Quote:
I hate to say this but this item weighted a lot more then I expected and so I had to refund you the purchase. If you would still like to purchase it shipping would be $12.50 and be shipped in a priority envelope. Sorry for not being so accurate in my shipping estimates, but this is a big difference and so I need to ask you to either purchase it again or cancel the order.
Maybe cheaper to go the Amazon

Good to know. I think I'll still order form Axel though. After adding postage it works out at £34.78, which is slightly cheaper than Movietymes £35.99.
