Wow, already V.13... bravo!!  rclxms.gif

Just to share: watched Transformers: DSotM last night and like most comment here who have seen it - it's a "so-so" flick only, not a "wOw" fantastic nor a bad one. Can't expect anything more surely especially on the story/plot department but they've certainly pushed the envelope on the CGI!! (the efx save the movie for me...)

I don't get the jaw-dropping or raise-my-bulu-roma type of scene anymore  laugh.gif  But overall a decent summer blockbuster to watch. Maybe it's because I went to a sh*tty cinema without any THX-equipped audio & small screen sumore (all the big-hall cinemas full house  tongue.gif ).

For me a 3.5 out of 5 only (same wif Andrew, if not mistaken) but the blu-ray version will definitely be in my shoplist nevertheless....  rclxms.gif

Yeah, is me... rclxms.gif

Agree with you 100% on the review. It just soso but ain't bad, 3.5 star

THe DVD RG code be hacked, but I dont think BD could be hacked.

I only see 2 options, either sell it or get a B Region player, then you are open whole new horizon!  rclxms.gif

Next time, just inform them item damaged and not need to describe too much.  tongue.gif  Then their will refund all.  In fact, since PAUL already out of stock, it is pratically impossible to ask them to replace the case only.

Furthermore, Customer Service officers not necessary know or appreciate the customers since if not mistaken, Amazon actually ask some Indian company, or somewhere around there to handle their Customer Service.  At least, during after office hour in US or UK.  hmm.gif

thanks bro, just got full refund notification after my 2nd complaint. biggrin.gif

placed 3 more order with AMZ UK on their steelbook, finger cross this time.

Sometimes the label behind maybe wrong, if wrong, then you possible can play. But percentage is low.

If it already ship, then can't cancel, if not yet, communicate with Amazon customer service for cancelling.

--------------------------------------------------
If the shipment already ship, then either keep for future when cheap region Free BD player is out, or paid expensive for DUNE / OPPO player.

Another solution, put at lowyat forum selling, some user do have region B player.

No leh.

I once bought a Region-Locked title from Amazon UK as well.

What I did was first to email their CS Dept. They agree to give me full refund, but I have to go through the hassle of returning the Blu-ray disc to them, following their instructions stated on their website.

Whether its worth the hassle or not will depend on the total value of the titles you want to refund. ;-)

Check the info first before you place order is still the best step before you place your order. Of course, unless you got region free player or media player+rip program that can remove region lock, then you need not to worry the region thing.

That one is region locked. Can't play in Region A player. Yesterday, a bit lazy to convert to region free .ISO file. Maybe, I will do it tonight and let you know. But last time I watched Akira is more than 10 years ago. Really don't have much memory for this movie. blush.gif

Yaya!

I think my Green Lantern Emerald Knights with Figurine temp no hope, I ask from a forumer (he is that forum site developer) not eBay, but he so funny, saying you can take anytime you wish (as he seen I already get others title from different forumer in same forum), then I ask how much in total for Green Lantern Emerald Knights with Figurine + Baraka (he already show me this last month).... he never reply, he seems like must send separately. hmm....

He no reply, so I also stop asking him for the moment.

That's the good thing about eBay sellers, sometimes they will consider your offer. Probably the seller you tried to contact is on vacation kot. Keep asking him again, he might reply you one day brows.gif
