Where and when was this said?????

It does say that in the GB threads bud, but it was more to do with if the price changed than if there were delays:

PAYMENT:
- Payment is only required on RELEASE WEEK. That way, we don't have any bad surprise if the price change.

Either way @wxlinkswd has said that if anyone wants a refund then they just need to request it and it will be sorted.

Thanks EzyRich

I have a bad news for everyone today,i dont know what to say.......
Today we got the Gladiator re-make steelbook,but we found a new problem,the Director's name doesn’t looks like print on steel,and it was very easy to remove by fingernail.
We had contacted Sacanovo,they said will check this problem immediately,and my boss intend to claim for damages against Scanovo......
I think the release date must be delay again,maybe 2 or 3 weeks,if anyone want to refund,please contact Alex,he will do refund immediately.
And we also give some Special Compensate to every buyer,i will post the details at next week.
I‘ll keep everyone informed of whatever progress we've got,Sorry again.

Toady I feel very bad......

I'm happy to wait for the fixed versions, too. Thank you for letting us know, good luck on getting this issue fixed, and please continue to keep us posted.

I really appreciate your efforts and communication.

Thanks @zoneism. I am just surprised about the lack of decorum some members exhibit. I do however wonder if you ask for a refund, would your slot in the GB be secured or does the refund indicate one has vacated their slot in the GB? Personally I'm in it till the end.

 

[nafosb]

Ok, so who are the individuals at Scanavo that will be fed to the lions over this?

i would agree, you would be giving up your spot for one of the alternates if you get a refund.

 

[RobertJoseph17]

Haven't been keeping track of this one. Will they be re-opening the GBs at some point? It doesn't look like they sold out of the allocated numbers, so I was just wondreing.

 

[Hella]

Well... on the plus side, it would have been nice to be able to remove the director credit and award text with a few swipes of the fingernail.

 

[Gadget]

Yeah, at least the people that join the GB now won't have to wait months after they've paid for it to be shipped. Win win for them. Aren't you the lucky ones.

That is...that is just hilarious! Now I kinda want mine that way!!
C'mon HDzeta (shhhh...) we won't tell the studio!

Moved a few posts to the group buy thread here. If you want to discuss group buys can you do it in the trading section and not on the main forums. Thanks.

no problem at all am more than happy to wait for these beauty's ,it's not your fault at all it's good that some one like you is an ocd checker of steelbooks and were not happy to let these though like this fair play to you good luck with Sacanovo they are totally in the wrong here cutting corners shame on them for this once again money over quality,and as for zavvi being blamed for this error not really a true statement to make about them as they don't make them do they lol.cheers pioneer

You had mentioned earlier some type of small compensation for all of the buyers waiting it out. Will that still be a possibility somewhere along the way?

 

[jammyone]

Scanavo now have more experience in sorting out their screw-ups
