I thought this was gonna be cheaper till release date, but i´ve been charged the exact same price when i pre-ordered!
A bit pricey, but it´s a Buttgereit!

I had on pre order with both Amazon and Zavvi
Zavvi price £22.99 is cheaper than Amazon £24.99
I used the usual discount code at the time of pre order making Zavvi even more cheaper

Zavvi in Euros after discount was €25
If I had of kept my amazon order that would have been €30 in euros

As amazon did not drop the price I cancelled that order on Thursday as Zavvi had debited my card by then

Amazon UK only price match HMV UK prices they ignore other retailers prices even if a lot lower
Amazon sometimes go lower than HMV but most times they have same price
Hmv is also £24.99

This why amazon UK price did not go lower than £24.99

 

[aLLu]

Yeah i don´t follow hmv much either, as they dont ship here as well. Just go to their site once in a while to check some slips, as the Blade of the Imortal incoming one
