If this is true I will have deny it and order at yesasia.

I suppose you expect jsdvd to pay you back fr shipping that they paid for?
 
My Yesasia order is prepared for shipping. Thus no worries that Ya won't get any copies.:scat:

Best wishes,

About 4-5 days if it's EMS and it's not handed to customs for inspection. You can track EMS shipments here:

No, I've never been charged when buying from YesAsia. They're far more customs-friendly than JSDVD.

Even if your are charged with custom fees, Yesasia will give you a refund, because they offer VAT free shipping (if standard shipping is chosen).

Best wishes,

Michael

Order dispatched from Yesasia. Can't wait to receive this beauty. In my opinion, along with the korean one the best version out there.

Best wishes,

Michael

Yesasia are ok. Its the time you have to wait to get your steel thats the pain. My last order from them took 5 weeks to arrive...EEK!
I would rather use JSDVD than them again.

this one is so tempting to buy because of the slip and the 3D disc :drool:

the slip's just an excellent bonus for me. I'm just glad I could find this artwor with a 3D disc included (wasnt too impressed on the German black background artwork, and didnt fancy paying £27 for the French/ES UK versions for only 2D

tracking stil doesnt show if mine's made it too the UK yet though *sigh*

guess I'm just too impatient lol
 
Words cannot explain the quality of Hansel Taiwan. The slip is top notch. Metallic ink slip. The pictures dont do it justice as its really hard to capture. Plus once opened (UK one), its a very nice steelbook too. Artwork, embossing. Great work Paramount. Its not one of their usual super hi gloss finishes (the spine is), but it works with this movie.

TW- Hansel & Gretel
Matte finish with gloss characters with embossed title with added hi gloss. Metallic ink slipcover over top 1/3

Is it weird that I really like the shrink-wrap on these releases? :emb:

They made the steel look 100x better! It doesn't have all that bunched-up plastic in the corners and no big seams down the side. I wish all steelbooks looked like this when they are sealed.
