@paulboland please explain to me how zavvi can post on their official twitter that its sold out, and then relist it 30mins later?

Zavvi is using the good old supply and demand formula. Now that I know I will make sure I get on top of it.

Any discount codes?

ZAVWEL54 didnt work. Buy now worry about discount later if you have time to try things out.

You are maybe giving them too much credit. I dont think they are that smart.

I imagine different people are responsible for updating the social media pages and the website.

I have realized long ago that Zavvi’s simple incompetence is wrongly interpreted as being deceptive. But it still surprises me how regularly they screw things up.

If our Korean retailers or GB hosts did stuff like this we would be burnt on the stake :\

@paulboland, ask Zavvi why they cannot stick with the live times they state on their pre-orders? Regardless if members should already know or not is irrelevant, there are some new collectors have no idea. When it states 6pm I expect this to be 6pm, not 5.30pm.

They do most times stick to live times it's only goes live early a few times and mostly are only 15min early with a few rare times by 40min
It's not like asia websites that sell out in seconds or couple of min

Most times the releases are still live long after the advertised time anyway so it really not affect anyone
It's very rare Zavvi have a release sell out as quick like you see with Asia retailers online

Went live early and I missed it. Back again and I got 1.

Turned out to be a different kind of Fright Night!

 

[blu-steel]

Any info on the print run?

1 billion!!!

 

[blu-steel]

Was so caught up in election news I forgot. LOL. I imagine this is a large print run. I would guess 10,000 probably.

 

[paulboland]

Any info on the print run?

More than 1

 

[Robsonmonkey]

Awesome it's back

Thanks @chunk

Any working discount codes?

 

[EvilThing]

Kinda impressed only one has appeared on ebay so far...for £45
I got mine so I'm happy - love the film, love the look of this package - xmas made

 

[hansgruber]

Sold out now again. Hopefully it is a 10,000 print run. Fright Night has a HUGE following and it would be a shame to see most of them have to turn to eBay and pay through the nose.
