Interstellar (4K+2D Blu-ray SteelBook) (HDzeta Exclusive) [China]

This is the first time I had HDzeta website slow to respond all previous times loaded fine and that was with releases with more demand
Oh Paul
I got a feeling they did not pay for extra sever capacity for this release as they did not expect the traffic
I do not say there are pre-assigned copies. I say that it is announced before opening the group. It is my feeling. I do not want create a bad atmosphere.
Forgiveness to people who have felt offended by my words.
Well it appears that with Zeta you have to come across a few barriers to succesfully order from their very slow and outdated server.
1. You need to actually see it listed for sale! And Yes, it's happened to a few of us, despite refreshing you see absolutely nothing.
2. You have to sucessfully add it to the cart
3. Then you will have to 'check out' which is Key the moment. If the page finally manages to load up
4. After adding the address and selected payment proceeed to the next step.
5. Add your payment details in.
6. Finally confirm order.
On each of those stages it can kick you out at any time. Not confident at all in Justice League!

Gotcha.
The message about when the group buy will open is posted in this thread. Several times. It's not a secret.
As for people being ready on the dot, it's luck. Some are sitting in front of their screens hitting refresh to see an update on here and others are subscribed to both this thread and the GB section to be alerted as soon as the GB is approved. I invite you to watch that section (link below) for future reference, this way as soon as a GB is approved, you will be notified.

Well, that's ... interesting. Never had a chance, as I was only checking under their Gold Label section
But hey, learn something new every day
That HDZeta will f**k you over whether by GB or web?Well, that's ... interesting. Never had a chance, was only checking under their Gold Label section

Yeah, they downgraded it to a Silver Label. Makes sense since it's not a new artwork/steel but most likely leftover from the original Gold Label a few years back.
Missed it
I got lucky on It, but this time the site didn't even load the image
Guess I'm gonna keep that ****** Japanese steel for now

I think it sold out in a minute. All those stages you were waiting to load up meant you didn’t get a copy.
if you connected at 10AM ET you were late, GB started around 40 minutes early, it was said several hours before that the GB time was updated between 8AM and 10AM ET
Yes but that only changed to that this morning a few hours before it was due to go live.
It was announced a couple of days ago it would be going live at 10:00 ET on here and on the web store.
To change it so close to the time of the actual going live time that had previously been communicated isn't very good.
Sorry @CleverLoginName had no chance at all. When site loaded in 16:04 it wasn´t already there, then I did another refresh, it loaded in another minute, item was there, put it in my cart, went to checkout and got error message that cart is empty. Totally impossible, sorry buddy
Thanks for trying, we both knew the chances were slim from the outset.
^^^^THIS.
I couldn't care less about the rest but this really needs to be addressed by the admins here.
What is the point of giving us a set live time days in advance? Only to change it within hours of when it's really supposed to go live? Why not monitor the info more closely? If they're not certain, well saying nothing about the live time is much better than allowing wrong info to be posted. That way we can all be in front of the PC the whole day.

I am subscribed to this thread.
Second lost opportunity to get this movie. And on ebay sellers will ask for a lot of money, as always. It is clear that my destiny is not to have this movie in HDzeta.
Unfortunately I don't wake up at 7 am EST on Saturdays to know of any updates made hours before the live time (which is absurd imo)
I'm sure for people in time zones/countries where the live time is during their wake-hours so camping and refreshing hours before might be okay, but for others, I don't think literally losing sleep for a release is worth it.I made sure to do a refresh of this thread before I went to bed last night at 2 a.m. and I've been refreshing this page once or several times a day leading up to today. Subscribed and have notifications on too, but they're unreliable as ****.
So now I'm assuming I have to wake up 3+ hours before the live time of any new GB here to be aware of any last minute updates?!

Dude, I understand your annoyed about not getting a copy and I’ve been there before like you have and pay the scalper Ebay prices.
I always check the thread the day before GB if there are any changes and on preorder day just in case.
If I didn’t check today I could had waited for the GB original time and missed out. By just just checking a few hours I snagged copy. Lesson learned, always check the thread and read through a few posts. No point moaning about it any more.
As this was a highly sought release I knew the qty would Be rediculously small from Zeta.
If you done everything and couldn’t get a copy that’s just bad luck. Someone has to miss out.
