[COMPLETED] GB (surfury) - Prometheus 3D (Play.com Exclusive)

{param}

Please note that this Group Buy operates under the Terms of HiDefNinja's Group Buy Rules Thread: For Members and Group Buy Hosts Enjoy the experience. :movie:

Release thread is here.

{param} Now CLOSED, Retail is £24. Release date is {param} 8th October 2012. Members can request upto 3 copies. As usual, this GB is only those who cannot buy direct from play, eg US, CA etc

However Paypal payments will need to be by normal Paypal (Goods) as I am no longer accepting Paypal Gift and don't forget you must cover fees. For those with no or little feedback I reserve the right to request funds by Amazon Gift Card in GBP (or € at a mutually agreed rate). Charges this time will be £2.50 per Steel. Postage will be at cost, however I reserve the right to pass on any charges for Insurance, Tracking Services or similar.

Once again I have to say this, please note that as stated in clauses #7 & #8 of the HDN Group Buy rules, if you join the Group Buy you are giving a commitment to buy, and you are therefore expected to stay in the Group and pay promptly when requested. I realise that there are sometimes valid reasons why you cannot, but please tell me or one of the trading mods if there are problems.

If you want to update figures ie request more, then please make fresh post to this effect. Unlike other GB's I have done do NOT amend your original post. Thanks. Any questions about the release etc, please refer to release thread.
Note there are 3 GB's that will be released from play.com on 1st October, in my personal opinion one of these will have to give, and sure enough this has now been bounced to 8th October. This will be constantly updated so please subscribe to the Thread. Thanks.

The Spreadsheet below should be correct, Please refer and follow the instructions sent. Many thanks. Any problems, refer to the instructions or refer to Trading Mods who will be aware. Sorry for the impersonality but there are an awful lot to get through.

Nope, last I saw some replacement steels were supposed to show up on Friday for the paramount wave 3 GB and then everything was going out. I figured we'd get shipping notices this weekend but I didn't see anything. I know surfury has some personal stuff going on though so that may be the cause of the lack of updates.

 

[surfury]

Believe it or not there were a host of problems with Prometheus too but these have been sorted out. (slashed spines, ripped shrink, the odd dent etc) 16% fail rate. I fully understand folks' anxiety and worry but they have been addressed and Invoices for combined shipping will continue to be sent. If I was waiting this long I'd be pi$$ed too.

Thanks to those for the support etc especially as there are others here more deserving.

I can only speak for myself but I think others might share my opinion. You're doing a fantastic job and we all know unexpected stuff happens -- like every time.

When I first joined this forum this was my first GB, I never doubted you or your work. I still can't believe some people do this for free - for the sake of helping others. In all honesty, I can wait, there's a difference between being impatient and being pi$$ed, and whoever is "pi$$ed" needs a reality check.

Thank you bro!

 

[charles04245]

Just saw the update from Surfury! Thanks again! I think it just makes people a little worried when they dont hear anything for so long. Glad to know everything is sorted out! I would much rather wait an extra week or two than receive banged up copies. Until my Steels arrive.....:shots:

Thanks again!!

 

[blu-steel]

Your doing a good job Dave. I am glad you have been able to source mint steels. It must be frustrating to return so many. Keep up the good work.

 

[tono06]

I'm with you DAve til the end n beyond LOL

 

[Lone Crusader]

Your doing a great job Dave going above and beyond to try and get good copies for everyone. I admire your determination and hardship. Keep up the good work. I'm in no hurry bro.

 

[ripclaw]

Hey Dave, I second what everyone is saying on this thread about you. You do some truly great work and I for one am glad that we've got someone helping us out with these GB's. I'm also in no hurry, so whenever you're ready to send across that invoice for combined shipping for 3 Steelbooks, please do so. I will make prompt payment.

 

[spawnshop]

Shipping paid!!

 

[surfury]

There are still some niggling problems on Prometheus and anyone who has ordered multiples will be receiving a PM from me very soon. I didn't want to scare you all but have to let people know what the situation is.

In the meantime we seem to be OK quality-wise on these Paramount Wave 3 problems. Strange how there were none on Collateral which is a plain gloss SB's.

Unless you have specific shipping requests all going Standard Air, Invoices will be sent directly to the Paypal account you used.

 

[Colombianlove41]

Hey,
Is there another day to contact you?

 

[Colombianlove41]

Hey,
Is there another day to contact you?

Sorry surf, I meant email to contact you

 

[arjaydc]

Hey Dave,

Have you sent me an invoice yet ????

 

[charles04245]

Any update??

 

[RayBluRay]

I paid for my order a while ago. Hope you got it.

Is it possible to add 1x Prometheus to it? Thought I would check.

 

[surfury]

Any update??

@ charles: You should have received my PM by now.

If anyone who has opted for a single copy and intends to open it, I can provide a copy with ripped shrink (the steel is perfect) as unfortunately play were only able to replace the damaged ones. EVERYONE WILL GET AT LEAST ONE PERFECT SEALED COPY. Sorry but I have been let down here a bit.

 

[PersianSteelbooks]

Ripped shrink is fine for me as long as the steel is fine, thanks!

 

[cprodrigues]

Dave,
I sent you a PM about this issue.

 

[surfury]

Ripped shrink is fine for me as long as the steel is fine, thanks!

Thanks for that

Dave,
I sent you a PM about this issue.

Have sent reply.

 

[jaszeron]

Dave, I'm good with torn shrinkwrap too as I am planning to open them, just require that the steels are mint. Hopefully this will get them shipped out soon.

Thanks bud.
