Just recieved my 6 boxes....
Some questions Answered...I HOPE..
This is a metal slip case
This metal is not much thicker than a cardbourd slipcover
Bluray logo and rating logo is printed on
The artwork on back is printed on
This is a 2 disc edition
Back cover has 2 thick fold overs..top and bottom
This is NOT...even close to previous slip covers like recent GODFATHER and other Known AUSSIE SLIPS
Is it a dissapointing product....."UNFORTUNATLY YES" :tear:

I won't be opening up the other boxes as im sure the quallity is all the same

You got it already? That's premium service mate. Are you in Melbourne?

The best pics i can do at the moment guy's

 

[Graves0777]

just realized what I did, I only canceled one slip, each item you order has its own freaking order number. This sucks.....

doh, the one metal slip I ordered has shipped

thank god it'll be the easiest one to get rid off, I got the Iron Man one

It's not going to be easy to flog them off on ebay as 1) everyone else will be trying to do the same thing, b) everyone now knows what a disappointment they are and won't bother with them.

Received the 2x Iron Man I couldn't cancel in time. Both arrived with small scratches on the front They were packed in box with packing peanuts.

Hopefully it shouldn't be a problem to return them.

It looks like one piece of thin metal with small folds on the top and bottom of the back.

Compared to regular metal slip case

dam it!!!! what a disappointment!

 

[urbeenjammin]

placed the order for a few copies when i found out about the 19.99 price a day ago...then discovered the tragedy of the quality of the slips.emailed for a cancellation and when i check the order history,to my surprise,the status was "canceled"
i think JB has realized the potential for a large scale problem here and started cancelling orders that had not shipped yet even though some were in the "processing"status.

Gary, so should I just reject the item when the delivery reaches my door? Then I wouldnt have to bear the cost of going to the post office and sending it back. That wont work?

Ok, I have emailed the online customer service, they replied and said that as long as you bring it back to the local post office and state it is "RTS", i.e. Return to Sender, you will not have to bear the return postage charges. I certainly hope so!

the only problem with that is the fact there's no tracking number when you use their package.when and if they receive it is going to take some patience.

phew!!

 

[gbdragon]

Are these exclusive to JB HIFI only as I saw them listed on EZY and DEVOTED aswell?

 

[n3wk1d]

Shoot, mine were shipped as well.

 

[terry44]

Damm these where to be my first metal slipcases. What a bad experience for my first time buy.

 

[CyberAthlete]

Wow what a disappointment. These are nothing like the previous slipcases. These were going to be my first steel slips and I was really excited when I saw pics of the previous Saving Private Ryan. I just spent $130+ for 6 of these? I could've bought 6 quality steelbooks from play.com for that much money.

Too bad I can't just return them as they're being shipped to the USA. Oh well, it's better than the amaray packaging for my Star Trek and Forrest Gump.

I have a strong feeling that the Gladiator steel slip at JB New Zealand is the same. EFFIN A!!!!

Actually Gladiator is one of the best Steelcases! https://www.hidefninja.com/community/threads/10317/ but I think they are shipping the amaray if i remember correctly.

But these new ones should be called "tin slip covers" instead of "metal slip cases"

 

[blurayfanatic101]

i actually pre ordered this one, can't wait till it comes in. hope it comes in perfect condition and no damages along the way. fingers crossed.
