Blu-ray Shipment Rates & Delivery Estimates from Amazon US & UK
Delivery Estimation are subjected to delay due to unavoidable factors.
Example: weather issue, congestion at port, custom clearance & etc.

We should consider time zone difference before making complaints due to late delivery.
Especially for countries which is ahead of UK/US in terms of time-zone.

Please be patient and avoid abusing Amazon.
Please wait at least 4-5 days after late delivery before sending a complaint email to Amazon.

Buyers Experiences - Amazon
Standard Shipping - Within 22 days from Amazon US, more than a month if unlucky ship via "i-parcel Saver Deferred". Within 14 days from Amazon UK & DE.
Expedited Shipping - Probably ship via "i-parcel Saver" with estimation of 10 days but never arrived on time, it is much more slower than Standard shipping due to bad i-parcel services. Highly not recommended. (Applied for Amazon US only)
Priority/Express Courier - Within 3 - 5 days via DHL (Amazon US, CA & DE) or UPS (Amazon UK).

Buyers Experiences - eBay US
USPS Airmail - Within a month.
USPS First Class Mail International - Within 11 - 12 days, tracking not function after parcel leaving US.
USPS Priority Mail International - Within 9 - 10 days, tracking not function after parcel leaving US.
USPS Express Mail International - Within 5 - 6 days, parcel arrived by Pos Laju, tracking work via USPS or Pos Laju website.
USPS Global Express Guaranteed - Within 2 - 4 days via FedEx Express. (I never try this, it base on USPS website)

Buyers Experiences - HMV UK
Standard Airmail - within 2 weeks due to slow process of HMV.com, shipping cost £4.50 per item.
Overseas Courier Delivery - no idea as never try and not going to, the shipping cost is way to high, it charge £37.00 per item.
  • HMV.com pending 3 days after item ordered, then another 2 days for item allocation, and dispatch after a day pending, in total wasted 6 days before dispatch.
  • HMV shipping charges is count base on item, means you order 10 items, they charge you 10x shipping cost and ship over separately as 10 items. This apply to both Standard Airmail & Overseas Courier Delivery.
Wish Everyone Happy Purchasing. smile.gif

Why it come with 2-3pcs disc? Bluray, DVD and UltraViolet Digital Copy in 1package. From my logic understand, nobody would watch the DVD ver. if they can brought a bluray. And what is this UltraViolet Digital Copy?

That is partially target those family currently using DVD player and wish to upgrade to Blu-ray player in near future or future. Save buyers costs when their upgrade to Blu-ray in future.

Or for those who will give away DVD to their relatives or friend.

Or for those just want to have most complete set.

What is UltraViolet?

UltraViolet is a free, cloud-based digital rights collection that gives you greater flexibility with how and where you watch the movies and TV shows that you purchase. When you buy a movie or TV show from a participating retailer, it's automatically added to your UltraViolet Collection and you have options to stream it over the Internet and/or download it for offline viewing to a variety of connected devices. Because UltraViolet offers so many viewing choices, you have greater freedom to choose where you want to watch - on a mobile device, computer, television, game console, etc.

Man, I just feel wasting my money to get all the format. 1 format is enough for me. if want mobile, just rippout or purchase download online.

Why the kid/parent need to watch the less quality version. While they can watch together the bluray ver? Do you mean they can watch it on their PC/laptop?

The local edition also have this combo ver.

well u have a point my friend. luckily, my proper collection started with dvds in the late 90s. never can afford LDs during my younger days and VHS; ppfftt... with its quality i leave it at rental, period. i never really started collecting BDs when the format already been introduced in the market due to the HD format war... but once Toshiba raised the white flag and HD-DVD became obsolete, that's when i started collecting, a bit late - '07 if i can remember correctly.

but there's no way in h*ll that u can ever finalised on the ever changing formats, medias & technologies... u have to go with the flow. for now it's BDs. u can just keep your precious previous formats for sentimental value hehe... tongue.gif btw, my '91 JVC VCR still in working condition, so do my '98 & '04 Pioneer DVD players... whistling.gif

In the US most families use bluray to watch at home. DVD are used to watch in the car when travelling. And the digital copy or ultra violet is just an extra way to watch the movie on the go. Thats what my uncle who stays in the States told me. Hehe

i just thinking how to save more cost without getting the bundle together outdated DVD format. Which is for me is a dust collector. biggrin.gif I still don't have kid. So can"t imagine your situation. hmm.gif

It will happen to you 1 days when you tired with keep chasnging format. The next format 4k is coming. They is no end.

There is 2 problem for me to keep the collection. The player is no more selling and no where you can repair. For example the LDs. So what you going to do with the disc collection? For kids toy? tongue.gif 2nd problem is the wife complain. You spend so much collection and you abandon it. Than collect another format. When year end cleaning, nagging coming when she saw your collection collecting dust. sweat.gif And it is not just my wife. My mother now start nagging too now. Ask me what I should do with my late father LP album. Man, why women don't understand. rclxub.gif

Hi bro ozak, nice meeting an old friend here (we last met in the LYN photography/video forum). So I see you have finally joined the BD family. Ya, I can understand your problems since I have also gone through the videotape ->LD->VCD->DVD->BD evolution. (I never owned any LD since it was too expensive so I just rented from the many LD rental shops during those day when LD was the rage.) A few years back, I threw out my hugh collection of mouldy VHS tapes and about to do the same with my dusty collection of VCD. I'll keep my DVDs though since they're not too bad with the upscaling on the BD player.
There is a solution to your second problem, albeit an expensive one. Just get you wife started on her shoe and handbag collection (if she has not already started) and nag about HER collection when she nags about yours! She'll surely stop nagging. brows.gif
A few pointers on ordering from Amazon based on my limited experience.
When comparing prices between Amazon UK and US, remember that the UK price is with 20% VAT so to get the selling price, divide the published price by 1.2 before using the conversion rate. Many UK boxset are cheaper than equivalent US boxset (especially the BBC documentaries) though packing may differ.
Those DVDs that come with the BDs may be region locked so not playable on most local BD players (unless it is a Sony BD player which surprisingly can play DVDs of all regions.) so pretty useless here.
BDs from Amazon Canada are usually more expensive than US but their shipping and handling is cheaper. Better still, they use DHL even for standard shipping so will arive within 3 days normally against 2 weeks to 4 weeks by Amazon US depending on the shipper used. Amazon UK items will usually arrive within 7 days by Royal Mail. (God Bless the Queen). Regular buyers from Amazon CA may want to confirm the part on using DHL since I only ordered twice from them and both came by DHL for standard shipping.
Enough said, just enjoy your BDs and your new hobby! thumbup.gif

Wah my friend. You also kaki BD. Your Sanyo cam still there? I seldom go photo/video forum cause sell off all my videocam. The dvcam and canon hd cam no more. I m using camera for video and camera. Easy to carry for holiday. 2in1.

I m not hardcore collector anymore. Just start BD. Collect quality movie only. Since I got the free player. LD is expensive that time. But if compare now, it is about the same as BD. RM value down. All my old player still here. Sony LD player, sharp VHS player etc. But longtime no fire up. Don't no function or not. sad.gif

Wife already is kaki handbag and shoe collector lor. But she collect the cheap 1. Leave me difficult to arque with her. sad.gif Sometime did trap her for a A/V player. brows.gif

Thanks for your shipping advise. I will try to get some from amazon and see what I can save. smile.gif

Based on records in www.blu-ray.com, now is lowest price (except in Oct 2010, Amazon UK mistakenly reduced price for this product to £9.97. For your information, if I remember correctly, those order that time at this super amazing price, Amazon UK subsequently cancelled all those orders tongue.gif .), around £30 before include shipping charges.

So far very lucky. Never get tax. To be exact, my parcel did kena tax but Amazon US never collect tax in advance from me. Shipper had help me to paid the tax (without let me know in advance, and I only know when I received that parcel and paid attention to the invoice attached in parcel) but Amazon never charge me for the tax.

Very strange, in the invoice, shipper is not Amazon and invoice include clause said "Shipper pays all charges". whistling.gif Since shipper is not Amazon, I wonder how their going to collect those tax their paid in advance for me... tongue.gif

This only happened when Amazon asked UPS to handle my parcel doh.gif . If my parcel is handle by DHL, I never kena any taxes before.

But when you place the order, it already state there that your order item and estimated tax to be collected. Than total amount. When you click place order, it will charge to your CC direct.

If no tax pay, it shouldn't mention tax to be collected. But just item and shipping cost.

I believe that is because I ask Customer Service of Amazon help me to combined orders. I think this is reason why system didn't estimate the tax for my order since if I didn't combined orders, each individual order is under taxable range and since combined order is done by Customer Service manually so system didn't can detect. hmm.gif

Or there is other reason that I am not sure. Since only very one or two cases happened for my orders. tongue.gif

Which state did u ship to? Some states in the US have sales tax.... That is why Amazon tax u.

Shipping to Malaysia using standard shipping does not incur tax, if customs hold, u r responsible to clear whatever taxes are applicable. Sometimes, using Priority shipping, they pre-charge u tax and refund if there is no subsequent taxation applied by Malaysian customs.

If shipping destination is Malaysia, there is no tax.

Items total below rm500..duti/cukai dikecualikan.

If still kena, probably handling/processing fees for ur pos agent.

My last case, is US$260+ inclusive of shipping charges. I am not sure about Amazon internal system. If you order just like usual, sure you will kena tax. But if you ask Amazon CS to combine order for you, I am not sure Amazon internal system can re-estimate the tax for the combined parcel or not since it is done manually by Amazon CS.

But, if you want to combine order, there is some rules that you need to follow, Amazon will not combine the order for you if you again the rules.

My case is using Priority shipping.

Thanks guys.

I guess the tax is for the US domestic sale tax. Or what you call GST in asia side. I m shipping it to NY. Export should be no tax.

I understand the over RM500 custom tax here. Been experience before. So far what you guys order that over RM500 for BD, got kena tax from custom here?

It depend on luck. I have received several time with parcel total cost more than RM500 but still managed to escape and not need to pay any tax. Most of the time those parcel is handle by DHL. Only recently, Amazon like to send my parcel using UPS. I notice UPS often get check by Customs. I know this because if me parcel slight big enough, usually me parcel will attached certain documents about custom clearance, outside the parcel.

This only happened if parcels handle by UPS. But I never experience this situation if parcel handle by DHL. Strange... hmm.gif

Some forumers here already report here that their kena tax even their parcel total cost is less than RM500.

So, Luck is biggest factor in this process. tongue.gif

Besides luck, i think its also depends on season.

For eg, holiday season/xmas...60% of my parcels required special clearance processes (less direct release)

Just finish watching Les Misérables at cinema - my 2nd favor Broadway film now. Well done!

Anne Hathaway was surprisingly extreme powerful vocal in every song especially the song "I dream a dream".

Amanda Seyfried was outstanding as well.

Russell Crowe also have deep and strong vocal.

The weakness vocal in the entire film gonna be Hugh Jackman. His voice too flat and less power to handle it. Anyway he still not the worst I ever heard, he still far better than Richard Gere in Chicago.

The film was simple but touching and meaningful.

If you love Broadway film. You definitely loving this. Catch up and don't miss it.

The whole film was 99% sing and only around 1% talk. Superb love it!

Until now so far, my 1st favor Broadway film gonna be "Moulin Rouge". 2nd is " Les Misérables" now, follow with "The Phantom of Opera", "The sound of music", "rent", "Hairspray", "dreamgirl" and lastly "Chicago".

When Blu-ray out? I am definitely buying it!

If there is a 3D release, i dont mind paying slightly more for a 3D combo pack

Imho, watching 3D at home / at your comfy environment can be better than cinema...

-------------------------------------------
As for the scarface STUNNING PRICE edition, I don't think it can be sell!

Thanks guys.

I guess the tax is for the US domestic sale tax. Or what you call GST in asia side. I m shipping it to NY. Export should be no tax.

I understand the over RM500 custom tax here. Been experience before. So far what you guys order that over RM500 for BD, got kena tax from custom here?
*
I've posted here before regarding my experience on tax about 3 years ago. My 2 separate orders from Amazon (made 4 days apart & each order was less than RM500) arrived together on the same day and was taxed because the recipient & address is the same and total parcel combined was about RM700+!!! doh.gif

So moral of my story, even if your one order is less than RM500; there is still chance of it being taxed if other order parcel arrived on same day (this is pretty unlucky scenario for me....) rclxub.gif

i always use that as a price gauge. well, u can make 2 or more orders in one day that total more than RM500... but u must already aware that those 2 or more orders won't ship on the same day at least not simultaneously! that is to avoid all parcels arrive on same day & date... biggrin.gif

Yeah, i still watch 2D...on my 2nd/3rd casual viewing and so on

Some movies in 3D are presented in 1.85 / 1.78 (full frame) while the 2D is 2.40 (widescreen with black bars), so the experience can be different (eg Titanic and I Robot)

3D will definitely help u to immerse in the movie with better details and depth

Of cos, at the end of the day..its up to personal preferences whether to 3D or not.

For me, its 3D all the way now smile.gif

Hi,

I ordered a BD from Amazon UK on 22nd December. It was dispatched on 24th December, arrival estimate is 8th January but today is already the 19th. The carrier is Royal Mail hence no tracking available.
Another BD I ordered on 28th December arrived early January instead (also via Royal Mail).

Should i wait some more or do i email Amazon UK a complaint? How do i email Amazon UK to complaint?

Thanks smile.gif

i have not been ordering from Amazon UK for quite sometime but i think it is the same as the US. based on your statement, by right on the 9th of Jan you can email and tell them already... by clicking under 'help' and look for 'contact us'. usually they'll tell you to wait for another 2 weeks or more... only if no avail, contact them again for further action nod.gif

Today watched the Samsara. I never watch Baraka yet. So, can't give comparison between these 2 non-narrative documentary. The whole documentary only have music (or sometimes, someone singing) and background sound. You can't even select subtitle since there is not subtitle at all.

Samsara focus more on circle of life and some of the scenes are showing dead people ( as shown in trailer) oops.gif tongue.gif . But some scenes are really stunning cinematography. This documentary took a lot of scenes in sacred grounds, disaster zones, industrial complexes, and natural wonders.

But for me, I think, I still prefer narrative documentary over non-narrative documentary. tongue.gif

Samsara is about visual imagery than being informative. I think they uses 70mm film for the making of both Samsara and Baraka. 70mm film is the bigger version of 'analogue' film tech used for big screen and planetarium. So I guess unless the future film makers are nostalgic about being analogue, otherwise it may be taken over by the latest 4K (Ultra HD) digital format.

I haven't seen Samsara in its totality yet. But Baraka really focuses on cycle of life, the irony of developed and under-developed lifestyle. Spirituality played an important aspect too.

Film like this can create stunning imagery of historical importance. Baraka has a small segment of World Trade Center interior scenes, which I think has become a monument as such.

This is the 1st time i got my parcel late since i started buying from Amazon in 2011.
The customer service replied me real quick. The status for the replacement BD is already 'dispatching soon'. It was also mentioned that i get to keep the BD i originally ordered if it arrives anyway after i've received the replacement BD. Cool smile.gif

Received the parcel within 3 business day and being charged RM90+ for MY custom tax, damn sakit hati as my total order + delivery is only £40+! doh.gif

That's scary. I checked my order and it has been dispatched. VAT = 0, total cost =0, standard shipping by Royal Mail. Did u ask specifically for UPS?

That's what i thought i'd do. It was mentioned in the CS email that if i receive the BD 1st ordered before the replacement BD arrives, i am to cancel the replacement BD in the Amazon ordering page. Will they know if i don't do that, and keep both the BDs?



Some questions for Lord of the Rings Extended Ed. BD owners here:

1. How is the picture quality compared to the theatrical edition, seeing that the codec differs. And there's the issue with the green tint as well, or is it not an issue?

2. I am no big fan of LOTR, but am able to relate to Tolkien's universe as I am a gamer myself, but love to watch the trilogy as they are aesthetically pleasing. If i am to purchase just the theatrical ed (cheaper), will i be missing out a lot on the extras in the EE?

Sorry for off topic but I think UPS was quite lousy with ketams.. I had one parcel containing subwoofer cable last month being taxed by ketam and it's handled by UPS too although CIF value was RM210 only and they even charge me RM25 disbursement fee. After protest to ketam, they agree to waive the tax but I need to appoint agent or claim it myself but need to go all the way to KLIA for RM81 tax refund?

I found out the reason why kena tax, it's because the replacement disc did not have any value indicated and UPS/Ketam simply plug the value from dunno where which came out at £110+.

So, ended up kena tax as the total value exceeded RM500. Damn!

1. The quality is definitely further better than theatrical edition nod.gif I don't think green tint is issue at all. This green tint issue only become an issue of debate before this extended edition is release. After extended edition release, no more complain laugh.gif at lease I don't notice it. laugh.gif

2. Extended edition got extra 3 hours compared to theatrical edition. I not sure 3 hours is considered a lot or not in your view point. sweat.gif hmm.gif

Only not in Amazon US and Canada, but Amazon UK, France and Germany got. Amazon at North America all don't have maybe because director already mentioned Prometheus is not related to Alien series?

Apart from Amazon UK, France and Germany, other countries also got their own version of this set, example, Russia, Brazil, Sweden, Finland, Portugal and of course our Malaysia and many other countries. tongue.gif

I think the 9discs Prometheus to Alien Boxset in amazon UK is region free if u look at the product description for disc-to-disc.

there is no reason for 20th Century Fox to region locked this item if the single movie Prometheus is region free. Also don't forget Alien Anthology in UK is region free as well.

How much is local store selling anyway?

Hi,

Any idea who does the delivery to our home addresses after our amazon BDs has been cleared by customs?

My BDs still hasn't arrived yet. Dispatched from UK end of December 2012. Contacted them already via email, they've dispatched the replacement BDs but still i see none in my mail box. They are by Royal Mail, so no tracking.

Wondering if the problem isn't with Amazon, but with our local couriers? Or maybe the customs kept the BDs for themselves?

For standard shipping, it will be local pos malaysia.

If the initial order and replacement order also didnt reach u, better check with pos msia.

Or maybe kena tahan by custom, but u didnt realize at all / didnt receive the slip

Yes, without tracking no...its hard to check

I just called pos msia customer service, if u still want to enquire about the package..u may do so but its tedious work/hassles (no gurantee)

U need the sender assistance to provide all the shipment details (date, time, etc) and u need to fill up some forms with pos msia to launch a case.

For more info, pls call pos msia cust service for advice and guidance.

If u r facing missing packages very often, i suggest u to stop ordering from overseas without a tracking number or start lodging a case with pos msia to inform them about this. (if really too often la)

Just called KLIA customs (03-87773745) - nice lady answered. Apparently, this is the main hub that processes all international parcels. If the parcel is detained, they will notify receiver via mail (which i did not get). I don't have a tracking no, so she traced my name through their system - nothing came up, so my BDs had no problems with the customs - she directed me to Pos Malaysia Pusat Mel & Kourier (03-87773777) - another lady answered, told me she can't help me without tracking number. Sigh.

Guess i'll wait a while more before i proceed with investigation (as u've mentioned), hopefully i'll have my BDs by then.

Thanks smile.gif

I actually watched the intro scene for a bit(I believe there was also a scene that had a volcano scene). Pretty good if u ask me. I would say slightly better than Baraka. So, u know its pretty good.

For me, Amazon is best place to order BD coz price is more cheaper than other seller site. Ebay, IF you lucky, you will get SUPER GOOD PRICE via bidding. Local seller like SPEEDY - harga BD MAHAL sebab dasar kerajaan kenakan cukai. Lowyat seller - coz they are a SELLER. Mereka mau untung sikit + cover cukai yang Kerajaan kenakan, but more cheaper then SPEEDY price. Pendapat saya la.... biggrin.gif

Amazon US Skyfall blu-ray only release today(12th Feb) but Malaysia seems to get it earlier.. Uncle Ho's even earlier, more than a week ago. I didn't buy it though as I'm waiting for more title to order from Amazon but a friend who bought the Uncle Ho's version says it's clear.. biggrin.gif

it seems nowadays that $peedy is selling their bds cheaper than they used to (not all though) which is a good thing to look forward to plus most new titles also release earlier here than the US (to curb piracy; so they say... tongue.gif) but i'm still sceptical on the overall factors of Asian Region A releases; namely:

• the transfer on disc quality - audio, video - similar, worse or better?
• space compromise quality - knowing Asian release has more language/subtitle leads to more space usage on disc?
• supplementary - less, same or more content?
• sleeve printing quality - printing, paper etc?

For me those criterias are quite important for me too apart from pricing - because i dont mind paying slightly more knowing what yoy gonna get... just my thoughts smile.gif

Hi, need opinion from amazon sifus here:

user posted image
user posted image

The above are 2 BDs shipped from Amazon (via Standard Shipping) on 18/12/2012, estimated arrival is 1/2/2013. Total cost was 32.95 USD. The parcel was handled by Iparcel with a tracking number which was not trackable until i lodged a complaint a few days ago to Amazon and got refunded the postage fees. They probably made the tracking number trackable and this is what i see from the tracking:

user posted image

The parcel is at Customs since 27/12/12 shocking.gif Is it normal for customs to hold the BD for so long and what for? I called the Customs at KLIA, they checked for parcels with my name (coz no tracking no.) but found none. I also did not receive any tax slips from customs.

This is frustrating...

They probably made the tracking number trackable and this is what i see from the tracking:

The parcel is at Customs since 27/12/12 shocking.gif Is it normal for customs to hold the BD for so long and what for? I called the Customs at KLIA, they checked for parcels with my name (coz no tracking no.) but found none. I also did not receive any tax slips from customs.

This is frustrating...

I think it's time for you to lodge complaint on package lost. 14 days after expected delivery date should be justifiable for a replacement set.

Your parcel most probably with Pos Malaysia since I-Parcel will be deliver by Pos Malaysia. I had my last parcel delivered within 14 days even to East Malaysia.. smile.gif

They asked to wait till 15/2/13 which is today before lodging a complaint for replacement or refund which i'm gonna do in a while. This is really discouraging. Such a long wait, yet fruitless.

What type of shipping do you use? Courier is way too expensive...

-------------------------------------------
Just called Pusat Mel & Courier, the lady asked me for tracking no. I gave the Iparcel tracking number STDPHX*** but she said not valid, tracking no. must start with E/C, numbers in btw, end with US. She asked me to check with sender which local courier they use? Called Pos Malaysia - gave me same answer??

probably got stucked at Customs because need extra processes to get permission to release the package from finas/censorship for BDs/DVDs.

since no 1 inform you about it, it will probably got stay like this, until u appoint pos msia as agent to settle this (or go settle yourself)

its very common and happens about 3 times out of 10 orders. if use DHL (they automatically settle everything on behalf)

and dont forget DECEMBER is holiday month...super slow (pos msia, ketam, censorship dept, etc) during these period of time

That's fast. You ordered from Amazon US or UK?
My Amazon US orders via standard shipping always take >1 month.
My last order from Amazon UK via Royal Mail also arrived <2weeks time but few orders thereafter also late already.
Dunno what's going on actually.

Usually Amazon UK uses Royal Air Mail reaches within 10 days mininum so far.
As for Amazon US for standard shipping uses MSI or IParcel .
But MSI takes too long 1 month or more..but I-parcel only takes 3 weeks maximum for me.

if the customs held that long, there can only be one reason: they have not finish watching your bds yet; especially the 3-in-1 combo one! laugh.gif sorry, that didn't help. tongue.gif

ok, there's nothing much you can do since you paid for a standard shipping; well... you pay peanuts you get monkeys! tongue.gif but then again, it's a good thing. since you chose the cheapest mode why bother going through the hassle calling here & there... and if customs held your parcels but failed to inform you, then it is not your problem, right?

ok... it is your problem because you already paid for it. so when the waiting period given by amazon dues, just inform them that you did not receive them still. they'll give you an option of refund or make a replacement order. so just request for a replacement order... that's it, irregardless whether it did arrive in m'sian shore or not. with priority aka courier you can't because they can track its whereabouts. for most times, they'll use expedited shipping without charging you extra fee this time. the only drawback is that you have to start playing the waiting game once again. wink.gif

my best record so far for standard shipping was 6 days from amazon US, and that's not from a peak season/period. the worst was 2 months and 3 weeks!!! blush.gif

I have been playing the waiting game with Amazon UK since December 2012 for a single BD via standard shipping. Even the replacement is late, just lodged a complaint for a 2nd replacement, imagine it's now February already.
As for the Amazon US BDs, i am really tempted to ask for a refund, but i got those BDs for cheaps, so feel 'loss' a bit if i let go. Yet the waiting... it's killing me. tongue.gif
I really do think that somewhere along the line of shipment, someone might have just conveniently kept the BD for themselves since there is no tracking.
The only positive i get from this experience is learning the ins and outs of international shipping from all sifus here.
Anyhow, thanks for sharing your experience. Your 2 months and 3 weeks wait is really "encouraging" smile.gif

For your info, both standard shipping from Amazon US either MSI or I-Parcel will be delivered by Pos Malaysia. If 1 or 2 title only, they will deliver to your delivery address but if it's bigger box, then they will leave you a note to pick up from post office.

I-Parcel used to be very slow in delivery previously but seems they've improved. My last purchases during BF was delivered using MSI which's extremely slow. Sometime exceed estimated delivery a week or two..

i believe amazon can trace the package...clearly its shipped to Malaysia but failed to deliver to customer. (for "wateva" reasons)

These are the Amazon UK BDs i ordered in December 2012. Just got the pos laju slip yesterday, went to pos office to get the parcels. They were all ordered separately. One of the parcels' packaging was badly dented sad.gif but luckily the BD survived. U can see 2 Fast & Furious boxsets, one without the plastic seal, the other is the replacement copy. Guess someone conveniently opened it up, watched it, then resealed the package. In fact, all the packages has been opened by customs, and resealed with the cheapo translucent tape, in the name of "inspection". Luckily, the BDs plastic seal is still intact. The excuse for the delay is the long holidays during CNY. Lesson learned - not to ship during festive season, at least in Sibu, coz the locals here take their holidays way to seriously.

U are right. Customs didn't hold my packages for long, the release dates stamped were early. But i hate it that they actually opened up the packaging to see what is inside. What's the point? It's not like they are able to do anything even if its a porno disc.
The problem was with our local pos malaysia. Just couldn't count on them.

If it is porn disc, their will confiscate. But the problem is can their identify it? tongue.gif

Years ago, when I just start order from Amazon US, at one occation, I ordered 2 BDs.

One of the BD, the cover have very sexy girl but that disc actually is Yoga disc not a porn disc.

But another disc look like very normal cover but is actually banned in many countries include our country and can considered as porn disc if based on most people judgement.

Customs officers did inspect my parcel but their only concern and inspect that Yoga disc and I saw finger print in Yoga disc but never touch another real porn disc. At the end, their still release my parcel to me without confiscate any disc. whistling.gif

This is the disc that I mentioned with normal cover but actually can considered as porn disc by many people: tongue.gif

I have no experience importing porn but if they do confiscate those, then movies touching on religion are banned as well right? Anyways, i'd like to stress again that the customs has no business unsealing BDs just to see what is inside. An Xray easily shows the contents of the BD box and google will show if the title of the movie is "dirty" or not. Leaving fingerprints on your Yoga disc only indicate that they are tempted to or had watched the supposedly "dirty' movie smile.gif

probably got stucked at Customs because need extra processes to get permission to release the package from finas/censorship for BDs/DVDs.

since no 1 inform you about it, it will probably got stay like this, until u appoint pos msia as agent to settle this (or go settle yourself)

its very common and happens about 3 times out of 10 orders. if use DHL (they automatically settle everything on behalf)

and dont forget DECEMBER is holiday month...super slow (pos msia, ketam, censorship dept, etc) during these period of time
*
it's true, festive season POS Msia very slow, i dont think it got anything to do with Ketam. Yesterday I collected a parcel I ordered from Amazon back in 16th Dec 2012, only yesterday I received notice to collect the item at POS Msia HQ. I saw the box with chop Ketam "Dilepaskan pada 29th Dec 2012". That means very likely POS Msia is very short of man power to handle their mail/parcel.

By the way, are u interested in getting Amazing Spider-man Limited Edition Box Set Japan Edition from Amz JP?
please refer to post#1 and #7 at Spidey BD
I am thinking to save some shipping fee if we order 2 sets sekali gus.

As u can see, the Japan edition is special because it has Spidey costume shirt, comic, film cell and steelbook. Plus the 2 figurine which u can get it at other places.

It cost about RM400 (exclude shipping fee) after conversion.

Usually u will receive a letter (stating your package is hold) and u will need to contact them. (to appoint them or settle yourself)

Sometimes they might also call u.

If totally nothing, u will have to take initiative to find out from them.

Yeah, without tracking number...its hard.

So, its all depend on luck. For big and expensive items, its best to use shipping with a tracking. Safer.

Lesson learned - don't use standard shipping during Malaysian holidays.

Anyway, anyone tried importing Region B BD players before? Any problems with Customs? I'd love to get one coz BD shipping is fast and cheap from Amazon UK.

I really wonder where the BDs were during these past months. Probably they recirculate parcels that were undelivered after a certain volume threshold is reached. I'm silently hoping that I'll get my "missing" BDs too though Amazon US has refunded me the full amount smile.gif

Amazon de today release Die Träumer a.k.a. The Dreamers. brows.gif Time to grab it. According to www.movie-censorship.com, this is Unrated Version.

QUOTE
Next week, the German label Concorde Home Entertainment releases the erotic drama The Dreamers by Bernardo Bertolucci on Blu-ray for the first time. Starring Eva Green, The Dreamers is one of the few films that were shown with the NC-17 rating in US cinemas because the makers refused to censor the explicit sex scenes. An alterated R-rated version was produced for the later DVD release and partly features alternate material.

Details about the differences between the alternate US version and the uncensored original cut can be found in our comparison.

The Blu-ray will be released in Germany on March 7th, 2013.

It depend. Sometimes very fast but sometimes take few days or maybe even forget.

Last time, I think few months ago, customs also hold my parcel for few days. But because that time I know movie at that parcel is all fine and won't get any trouble, so I never care and just left there as it is. Until few days later I just few wired since already more than 3 days stuck at customs clearance.

Thus I wrote to Amazon to made a complaint. Next day, clearance complete and delivered to me. Amazon even refund my shipping charges. tongue.gif

I bought Led Zeppelin - Celebration Day Deluxe Edition set that comes with a blu-ray disc. It plays fine on my Panasonic blu-ray player but on my PS3 (firmware 4.51) it plays up to main menu. When I start the feature movie, everything goes blank and my tv tells me that there is no signal received. My PS3 stay idle (I can still eject the disc though) forcing me to restart it. Anybody knows how I can solve this?

Need to go downstairs (inside a building)

Anyway, there are many other shops in mongkok also quite good and competitive priced smile.gif

Some suggestion :

1. Laser Collection @ Nelson Street, Tak Fat Shopping Arcade, Mongkok
-great selection of titles
-very good and competitive prices

2. Wide Sight Entertainment @ Sai Yeung Choi Street, Mongkok
-good selection of titles, competitive prices

3. Hong Kong Records @ Gateway Arcade, Harbour City, TST
-wide range of titles, good prices (look for promo titles)

4. CD Warehouse @ Langham Place, Argyle St, Mongkok
-wide range of titles, good prices

5. HMV HK @ iSquare TST or The Park Lane Causeway Bay
-good selection of titles but slightly pricier than others (look for promo titles)

I been looking around & from what I found, most multi region player require player modification, that's something I want to avoid. Worst case, I will just buy additional region B player cater for that purpose alone.

Depend on which type of Blu-ray player you are using. If it is common Blu-ray player, I think can't but if you using Dune type of Blu-ray player cum media player, you can.

Regarding access to google, facebook, etc, that also depend on which blu-ray player you are using. Some may offer those functions but other may not. blush.gif
