Amazon.co.jp shipping
Whats the shipping like with amazon.co.jp? I ordered & had shipped a DVD over 2 weeks ago & it hasn't arrived? Is this the norm?

I have ordered a few things from them and the longest it has taken to Dublin is 2 weeks. They say on the site to expect 3-4 weeks for standard shipping, so you should probably wait a little longer before getting on to them.

I think my ghostbusters has arrived as i have a card from the po for an £8  customs charge and i can only think that it is this dvd.

Tell me about it, that pushes this ghostbusters one disc only up to about £30  i just hope the pq and sound are worth it. I really cannot think that it is anything else as i have plenty of dvs on order but non due yet.
I havent been caught by customs before so as an overall % of items purchased over the years it is really small, well thats how i am trying to bring myself to terms with it

I've started watching my copy, and i'm not terrably impressed thus far. The picture is grainy, especially the dark areas of the picture, and there isn't much shadow detail. It has a high contrast look. The picture isn't as sharp as most of the other superbits I own.

I received it yesterday & quickly checked it on a portable, (don't ask) & it looks stunning  I haven't had time to check the audio, but I'm happy.

Disappointing if the pic isn't better, what do you think of the DTS soundtrack is it an improvment on the Dolby 5.1 track of the old release ?
