you probably forgot about scarface.

No, mon ami, I just don't feel it appropriate to compare a film made in 1932 against one made in 1983.
That being said I'd probably go for the original anyway (being a fan of early B/W gangster films).

Well I decided to have a banter on the forums and then wait for the live announcement so I wouldn't miss out. Best to come on 1 hour before stated live times if you have the time to spare. I mean the discount code was disabled after 2 minutes....usual practice for them.

I got in roughly 10 mins after it went live and the code worked. It's usually 15 mins (that's the window i go by anyway) but there has been occasions it's disabled after a few mins and a few rare occasions it's not worked (the cheek )

 

[hansgruber]

I agree with you but surely you have learned by now to check up to 40 mins before each live listing is stated a time with zavvi?

Happens every time or its late (hulks were the last late ones I remember)

I am not speaking for me. I have learned all my Zavvi lessons the hard way long ago. But as I said, I feel bad for the many other buyers that arent aware that Zavvi always finds a way to screw up almost everything

Okay maybe 2 mins was an exaggeration. Couldn't get the link working and kept getting a blank screen. Probably a HDN overload!

Should the inside artwork look like that?

 

[Steelcouch]

So when did it go live? I thought 6PM uk was the official time.

 

[hansgruber]

I just really hope Zavvi puts a clamp down on the scalpers for a release like this.

It will really be a shame if they allow orders of 10-15 items

Same thing happened to me, opened the link in a new window and it seemed to work just fine.

 

[Robsonmonkey]

Is this a joke. They said 6pm today and I now hear it went live for a little while yesterday and went live earlier today then it was supposed to

Now it's sold out....for f*** sake

Imagine if kimchi or Nova did it

Zavvi doesnt have a clock? Maybe I should gift them one.

When 6 PM means 5:40 PM.

Official time? That does not exist with Zavvi. They cannot even follow their own schedule.

it went live 5:20pm UK time. exactly the same time as "It" yesterday.

edit: just checked my order time, it says 5:31. sorry my mistake.

 

[PadreKarras]

Oops, sold out yet at 19.00 (18.00 U.K).
I missed it...

 

[MrRegan]

Gutted! I don't collect many steelbooks now and have to be very selective. This is one of my top 3 movies

 

[paulboland]

Zavvi most times goes live early can be even 1 hour early but most times it's 40 min to 15 min before advertised time

 

[tha_lunatic]

Unfortunate that Zavvi cannot manage to read a clock

 

[lights]

Zavvi must work in their own time zone.

It's sold out but it's still lurking in my basket and allows me to checkout.
