There is no mention of a digital copy being included on the Zavvi or Amazon website so I'm guessing it's just an image that they've used for all versions (like the Bestbuy one).That mock-up shows:
4K Ultra HD + Blu-ray + Digital
on the cover.
I thought digital copies were a thing of the past for UK releases?
Indeed. In which case, it's a sloppy mistake, as they've taken the effort to add the UK classification logos but not remove some wording that is not applicable to the UK version.There is no mention of a digital copy being included on the Zavvi or Amazon website so I'm guessing it's just an image that they've used for all versions (like the Bestbuy one).
Went up for pre-order at the end of March, I think. Not a Zavvi exclusive, so no 'big build up' to a live date and time, and no chance of using any discount codes.Link takes you to pre order now!?
Whoever designed this obviously never watched the movie beforehand, they've made one helluva balls-up with the front.

Hey Paul (@paulboland), thanks for letting us know about this.EU customers beware
Deff.com do not include EU vat with your purchase nor do they remove UK vat from price at checkout
You will end up paying UK Vat and risk having to also pay EU Vat when you should only be paying vat once
As DHL will look for EU vat to be paid when doing delivery
If value of goods are over €22 vat has to be paid and if value is over €150 Import duty has to be paid
July 1st 2021 EU Vat has to be paid no matter the price as the €22 threshold to avoid Vat payment ends
Shipping cost if delivery address is based outside UK is nuts prices
Example shipping to Ireland is £16.95
They use Dhl for EU orders and you will likey have your postal carrier apply a handling fee for collection of Vat before doing delivery as EU vat not included in your purchase
Total cost will be very high if you based in EU or based outside UK
Deff need to register for a EU vat ID by July 1st 2021 and must remove UK vat from price before they apply EU Vat at checkout
Zavvi on my parcels now since past 2 months list a HS tarrif customs number with country origin of goods listed as IrelandHey Paul (@paulboland), thanks for letting us know about this.
Please tell me, is this any different of what Zavvi is doing?
Cause I for one had seen NO DIFFERENCE on ANY of the Zavvi's websites,
let alone sending Steelbooks from somewhere else than Guernsey
which automatically land them to the customs.
Thanks a lot Paul (@paulboland)!Zavvi on my parcels now since past 2 months list a HS tarrif customs number with country origin of goods listed as Ireland
The parcels though as usual has postage paid Guernsey and return address as Guernsey
I not been hit for vat to be paid by custums on Zavvi orders in Ireland likely due to the HS Tarrif Vat ID code been listed on the parcel
It will be from July 1st 2021 when customs in EU countries be more strict especially in regards to EU Vat ID codes be on parcels
Zavvi website say they cover the Vat payment for EU customers so if anyone in EU was hit by custums for payment of Vat all the customer has to do is get Zavvi refund that payment as they list on their website they will cover Tax and Duties at no cost to the customer

For customers located in the EU, most of our products will ship from our distribution centre within the EU and therefore ordering with us will continue as normal.
For any products shipping from the UK to addresses in the EU, tax and duties will be settled on your behalf with our courier, so there is no cost to you
As Zavvi list the followingThanks a lot Paul (@paulboland)!
Still, in the link you provided, I can't see anywhere any mention of Zavvi stating will refund VAT or taxes for EU customers.
Furthermore, ALL my recent (this year) Steelbooks purchased from Zavvi, ended up in customs, where I had to go and "settle" things.
Also, would be nice if Zavvi would indeed refund anything we pay to customs, but how about the time spent to go to customs, which, in my case for example, has a very "tight" opening hours, in only three days of the week (Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays), between 08:00 and 16:00, which usually is overlapping with normal working hours of almost anyone, so VERY hard to reach customs for taking some packages from Zavvi.
I ended up "looking, sobbing, swallow the knot, and stop ordering anything" from them!
Aside of the fact it is very ambiguous and not clear, if they do not use a courier from end-to-end delivery (as it is in my case, when always the packages from them come through the national postal service, posta-romana.ro), and if they realy state "for items shipped from UK", they clearly left themselves a BIG "escape way", to just say "the Steelbooks are shipped from Guernsey, not from UK".As Zavvi list the following
For any products shipping from the UK to addresses in the EU, tax and duties will be settled on your behalf with our courier, so there is no cost to you
If customers based in EU was to be hit by customs for Vat or import duty on items shipped from UK
Zavvi would have to refund EU customers those payments as Zavvi list on their website they cover the vat and import duty at no cost to customer
That means Zavvi pay the EU vat themselves for EU customers if item is shipped from UK
Note you would have to contact Zavvi for the refund if you got hit for Vat payment and that's if it's a parcel shipped from UK
It also can be a mistake by customs in your country not noticing Vat has been paid already
Note this only applies to customers with a delivery address based in EU for items shipped from UK and not customers based in USA or other countries based outside UK
