Thanks for the recommendation - what a great price! Just placed order for Julia's Eyes. Too bad Hierro is Region B...

welcome bro,

pls bear in mind these are mature audience movie, with good story & character development, story is slow and follow the characters journey. not like scream or texas chainsaw

HIERRO is really good if u r married & has kid, it is from a parent standpoint, the actress looks & act great, some titi scene, just gorgeous when watch via bluray smile.gif .

Yup, I do agree on your statement that some request for refunds even when one week late than estimated arrival date. One thing for sure I never do that, most of the time it was Amazon who offer me the refunds. I even once told them I don't want refunds but the goods I bought instead.

Regarding the iparcel service… maybe you are one of the lucky ones. Eventhough I'm not a big buyer like some sifu here, I've been purchasing dvds & bds from Amazon for 5-6 years now and based on that record, I dare say that there's something wrong with iparcel service because before they were appointed by Amazon, only one time that a standard shipping parcel came very very late!  nod.gif

usually i don't care of AMZ estimation on delivering, i always choose the cheapest mode, however i got upset if my disc cover arrived in bad condition, especially the steelbook, always dented. the standard bluray case can be replace, but not the steelbook and customized boxset

hi bro, ya, will do, but a bit tired last night, here some teasing first:

LOST COMLETE SERIES AMZ US - it came in a big box, the size is like a bluray player box, it has 2 layer of boxing, 1st is AMZ box, after open the first box, then is another ticker box with air bubble thumbup.gif

after open the 2nd box, you can see a very nice printing LOST SERIES BOX in black color with the airplane picture, open the box from the side, u pull out the product, it is just gorgeous, with a high quality art book, map, lots of others gadgets & 6 cupboard made photo album style for keeping the 6 season disc.

Only drawback I feel on these cupboard made disc storage is not that practical and the wear & tear in long run. However, overall, this is really one of the best looking collector's items & worth every single cents if u haven't own any LOST bluray disc.

For AMZ UK HARRY PORTER COLLECTOR"S item, i feel it is too small in size blush.gif , i thought it will be bigger but it is very identical to LOTR EXTENDED CUT, it can in a very tick & solid box set with shinning printing, u open the box, it comes an art book (good printing, BLURAY KEEPCASE in vertical SIZE, i thought & prefer it to be bigger ) then 2 digi-pack keepcase. Overall i felt it is a bit pricey, advice is to wait for sales, AMZ UK is crazy on this type of box set sales, it might go down to UK$30. doh.gif

I already received my copy but i didn't check is there any number in my set. rclxub.gif

Actually something scary nearly happen to my HP set. sweat.gif

The postman arrived my house early morning at 8 something, he press my door bell, put the package at my gate & then just left. My wife heard the doorbell, so she came down to check it out, guess what, a stranger who walked pass our house saw my package & tried to STEAL IT! vmad.gif

Fortunately my wife came down just in time, the stranger saw my wife & quickly walk a way, if not, i will loss my HP set & never known why it got lost. So, now i have to factor in another reason our package got loss - it got stolen even when it arrived our doorstep. vmad.gif

One more thing, the stranger is not a begger nor any low life scumbag, but he is a well dress man and he was with his daugther. what kind of father who try to steal something in front of his own daugther? shocking.gif

back to the HP set, as i mentioned before, it is very identical to LOTR EE. For the pic quality, i believe Warner Bros merely used all previous release & pack it in a new set. Pic quality vary & the subtitle is not consistent, like HP1 got chinese subtitle, but not the last few episode.

I don't have it.  But this movie is the most influential movie in US movie history but no necessary mean it is good movie by today standard.  sweat.gif  I want to order it before but cancelled after thinking few times since I know even I buy it, probably only to collect dust without watching it.  tongue.gif

I watched it b4 when i was at UK via VHS, some comments: very creative, especially it made in 1940s, in term of story telling, camera angle, directing & performance, it broke all HOLLYWOOD method. However, it u put it at modern day, don't expect it will shock u. it is black & white, i believe is in 4:3 ratio

anyhow, the $ drop more than half, might consider buying it for display, to pretend you got classic taste tongue.gif

Did that person already in your house compound? or his hand touch ur parcel already?
If not can't consider wan to steal ur stuff...
Maybe pass by n curious bout ur package..
Our country practise law which say u not guilty until proven guilty,right?
Btw where u stay?
*
i stay at landed area, he was walking pass my compound, the postman put the package at the top of my gate, so he can grab it without entering my compound. I should have a bigger post box. hmm.gif

I do not agree and accept that he was merely curious so he can take my package & find out what is it & put it back. shakehead.gif at least i would not do it. shakehead.gif If the package was drop on the floor & he was trying to pick it up, then i can accept.

besides, i am not suing him, i just try to highlight to our fellow here next time if u hear your door bell n u got small pos box, don't wait.
