For my understanding, majority local couriers service in my town is crap.  Even DHL also about the same. Parcels fron Singapore shipped directly to my town at early morning (8am to 9am) will take them more than 1 day and only next day their will deliver to you. Flight from Singapore to my town usually only take 2 to 3 hours only.  doh.gif

Aiyah! I stay at JB lei! just a bridge cross is reaching, but sometimes it also take 1 day or ++ just arrive.
As I know the journey take less than 1/2 hour from Singapore custom to JB town doh.gif rclxub.gif.

For normal edition of BD, slow shipping may = free shipping.  But for limited edition BD, slow shipping may become missing parcel -> no replacement since out of stock.  In that case, refund is only option.  sweat.gif

Actually I think i-parcel never MIA the parcel, but just don't know they ship by what? vessel? I think "Jalan Kaki". tongue.gif

i don't understand then why amazon still using i-parcel; i bet there are other customers worldwide complained about its slow deliveries too and amazon has to compensate/refund etc... and will only backfires them if they keep using this service in long term. it happened to me twice also during last BF: 1st complain - refund shipping charges; 2nd complain - refund product charges... but later parcel turn-up after all! but in the end, the much delay justifies the refunds, so ok la...  tongue.gif

Maybe Amazon not yet learn about it, Amazon love on i-parcel, what to do.

I think it still use i-parcel when you order something bigger item, like those UCE box set.

I just chat with another CS as this morning CS did nothing to me, the CS not doing any refund at all. I also resend my feedback to morning CS mentioning the CS less knowledge and not helpful and give all 1 star, if possible I want to give 0 star. vmad.gif

Lucky the recent CS was great and immediate refund for me. wink.gif

Few months ago (more than half year), there is one thread in www.blu-ray.com discussed this issue.  Lot of ppls replied stated why their don't want steelbook. I can't remember all of them.  Someone said if you put together with all BD (normal edition) with steelbook, it look wired.  Because steelbook is shorter.  blush.gif

Oh ic, ya true, that why I not put together, anyway steelbook still look nice, the most ugly I think is digibook as it can't stand straight.

Another Blu-ray i have seen with heavy grain was Men In Black. It looks great with grain present. There are more movies on Blu-ray with grain present , looks awesome as its originality is retained compared to movie in theater.

I don't own MIB, my another superb grain film is Minority Report, it is heavy crazy grain also, but it look nice and suite to the film.

true, digibook is the least favourite for me... not only it can't stand straight, the pages are very difficult to flip full because the way of the binding & the credits info are printed separately so after unwrapped, the loose sheet can fly off & don't know where to keep within the book!  doh.gif Luckily now, film like SE7EN oredi released a non-digibook version too!  rclxms.gif

Who want to change the UK BBC Life with my US BBC Life, kindly PM me. (I know suppose at WTS thread, but I don't want to open this because of such request).

I want UK edition, as I want all my BBC in same size, now it look awful due to that US BBC Life packaging is taller than others.

Beside this, all my BBC is UK edition except this Life. Haizz.....

Andrew, r u familiar with Amazon price fluctuation? I thinking of getting the Alien Anthology, now  £16.99, but previously it dropped to £13.99. Do you think it will drop to this price again soon? Not urgent purchase though.....

I had no idea, you may often check blu-ray.com

Beside this, you can add to cart at Amazon, then every time you check your cart, it will let you know if the items is reduce or increase in price.

thst is possible, last week my wife received 3 package from AMAZON, after she opened all, she noticed 1 package not belong to me. rclxub.gif

after 27 days of waiting, my SCARFACE STEELBOOK finally arrived,  rclxms.gif , TONIGHT 1ST THING TO DO IS WATCH scareface

i have tried most of my STARWARS disc, i noticed all sounds near perfect, very active 6.1 channel, a must for sound lover. pic wise, i particularly like episode 3 to 6. 1 & 2 too soft & looks to digital.

i have revisiited PIRATE OF CARRIBEAN TRILOGY again, all with LINEAR PCM SOUND, all sound very good, this is a trilogy worth repeat viewing.

AMAZON UK has some good discount now.

27 days? Why took so long? being ship by i-parcel?
