This is the one i am referring too:
http://shop.jbhifi.co.nz/dvd/dvd-genres/action-adventure/gladiator-blu-ray-tin/2607

It says blu-ray tin. Of course the first release of Batman, T2, Gladiator and Saving private ryan are all beautiful and if these were the same, i'd be all over them and then some

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"

False alarm on Gladiator. Here's an email from JB Hi Fi

"Hi T,

Thank you for placing your order for Gladiator through JB Hi-Fi Online.

We regret to advise you that this title is only available in a paper slip, and not a steel tin as stated on the website. (Please note: Our product team will be amending this on our website ASAP)

If you would like to cancel this order please respond back to this email, if not, we will dispatch your order ASAP.

We apologise for what has happened here and regret any inconvenience caused.

This morning I found emails from them stating they've just shipped them!!! Grrrrrrrr!!!

Useless.

Mine shipped too, WTF

I would have kept it if it didn't have printed (massive) ratings logos, but it looks naff.

 

[prodigy1985]

I cant wait to see pictures for this, it has to be a beauty!!!

 

[HUBMUSWELL]

the only positive i can say is that it will add to my iron man collection

I had to get mine out - Only Iron Mans first film separate relese

 

[VRob98]

So I see these have started showing up in eBay already.

As expected, people just can't wait to get rid of 'em.

At least sellers should be able to recover their money after being hooked into this fiasco. JB Hi-Fi now have some work to do before regaining people's confidence to pre-order with them.

But the slipcase is in metal or not?

But the slipcase is in metal or not?

Hi Dom,

Slip Case is more like thin Tin ??, that the normal plastic Blu Ray just slides in and quite a tight fit

 

[shdl83]

seen this in real life, and to be honest, it looks really bad will just wait for it to go down in price then buy.

 

[rodtp]

But the slipcase is in metal or not?

It is metal, very thin tho.

 

[CraigH]

Mine came today. I'm not even going to open them. Writing an email now to request a refund.

 

[gbdragon]

Anyone from the UK returning their copies? Is it free post to return?

 

[terry44]

Think it will be easier selling them on ebay. Thats what I plan to do.

[apsmith21]

I got these in today and really like them. But looking at my invoice, they charged me 26.98, not 19.98.

 

[bd251]

I got the dreaded package today as well. I have to say first of all that the quality is terrible. Lots of paint scratches! They actually look decent for what they are but NOT for what they were advertised as and not for the price. So now not only do I have two BDs that I dont want, I have two BDs that I dont want and won't be able to sell!

I'm guessing that it's unlikely I will be refunded for the damage? Can anyone comment about that process at JB?

 

[CraigH]

Write them an email explaining that you ordered them on the premise of them being "metal slipcases". Show them an image of the previous slipcases and make mention of current releases such as Scarface, Apocalypse Now, Scarface and FF5. Point out that they should have been named something other than a "metal slipcase" as it insinuated that they would be the same as the other metal slipcases they have for sale. Don't tell them it was falsely advertised, that's a bit heavy. Just tell them that their description led you to believe their product was something else.

I got a return authorisation...
