HMV & TNT are bloody useless. Still haven't received my copy on release day.

Terrible service from HMV

 

[surfury]

I'm Just waiting for the discs to turn up .... still.

The bag of Steels has just arrived. Some for me some my son, some replacements for GB defects. Steel overload. Will get to open one to watch sometime.

Still nothing through the post!

Ive just been instore to pick a copy of the steelbook up and they have been pulled not 1 copy of blu ray let alone steelbook in sight. Well pissed.

 

[CaptainCoffee]

Mine still hasn't arrived. Why are they recalling the discs?

Mine still hasn't arrived. Why are they recalling the discs?

Many people have reported freezing issues so Lionsgate have issued a recall as it's an authoring problem with the discs.

 

[CaptainCoffee]

Cheers mate.

I'm pretty sure I deleted my confirmation e-mail.

Am I boned? :/

 

[snooloui]

Recalled to be permanently destroyed making this the rarest Steelbook ever

 

[creasey275]

OK, so the entire blu ray has been pulled from all websites and stores, amray and steelbook - so at the moment if you have a steelbook you are holding a very rare one, not too many Cabin in the Woods steelbooks around...

 

[jimmy]

Just called my HMV, the lady said they have loadz..

 

[brandon93]

Just got home from work and no steelbook!

^ It's nice that hmv are sorting this issue out, but 2 weeks !!

 

[DK06CTR]

Well mine had loads of dvds and not 1 blu ray. Odd

 

[RobPaul]

Imagine they gave the job of unsealing, inserting new blu ray and resealing to the dreaded 'HMV Warehouse Slasher'!

got the same email from hmv - my reaction was exactly the same: 2 WKS!!??

 

[thedefector]

Yeah, a bit of a wait for the replacement disc. Just hope the SB is as nice as the lenticular slip. Went into my local HMV today and they had none of the blu-rays (SB or amaray) on the shelves - just the DVD.

yeah well thats just what there going to have to do now lol, open all those ones up to change a disk , probably find half a sandwich inside your steelbook when you open it lol

 

[snooloui]

I received the same email. Glad to see something is being done and although two weeks is a bit of a wait, at least it should be hassle free.
