If Zavvi are charging more then £12 for old releases then they've lost one collector who was gonna buy most of them (even though I'm not really impressed by any of the artworks).
Yeah they improved packaging, but still worse then plays and far worse customer service & shipping times, yet charge £4 more.
Roger Rabbit was a new release and limited to 3k. One of the Star Treks was limited to 3k. Finding Nemo's a new release. Indiana I was gonna let slide, but old releases for £15 I think is just too much. It's not so bad for one but I happen to like most of them so it adds up.
And anyone who agrees with me I think should take a stand. I suggest at least don't pre-order straight away and see if Zavvi look into it, cos no normal buyer is paying that much for these. They're relying on collectors. And if we show Zavvi we are willing to pay whatever then they're only gonna go up in price. And I don't know the ins and outs whether or not it's Zavvi making the prices or not but they've still alienated me.
If you're happy to pay whatever then my comment obviously doesn't apply to you.
As I said the artwork doesn't blow my socks off and we've had decent steelbooks for £11 meaning they are probably choosing to charge more because you are willing to pay it not because they need the extra money to make it extra nice.
But if there are enough like me then maybe they will do something about it.
