Not true! I had on preorder Rambo steelbook and while it was true steelbook got dispatched according to tracking it never left warehouse and i got refunded with 0 explanation why.
Typical Zavvi sh*t.
Until you get steelbook in hands i wouldn't believe it otherwise.

That's unfortunate for you, but nothing to do with zavvi not honouring international preorders. Many customers have received international preorders since the change, your's just sounds like a standard zavvi screw up, rather them not honouring ANY international orders.

Christ I sound as autonomous as Paul reading that back

Honestly mate, I’ve just assumed Paul had 2 accounts up until this post confirming it’s not paul

Paul's reaction:

This thread will be utter chaos after the 31st August when The Fifth Element still hasn’t shipped and Léon is looking less like this year with every passing second

Haha, well surely Leon is not going to be this date now, more end of September early October, looks like Fifth Element going into early August.

That's because you're repeating same words 3 times, normal people don't.

No, @samdavies makes much more sense.

eeek don't do it, i can't handle two robots, my brain gets frazzled

Honestly I’d be surprised if Léon is this year now. Or at least around Christmas

But we’ve seen the video and pics (of FE) so it’s definitely happening and I certainly won’t be bothering zavvi with “where’s my order” questions when A) they won’t have a clue. B) we all in the same boat. And C) it’s still happening anyway

Relese date has changed to October 2nd on Zavvi

 

[Lenny Nero]

2 month delay, as expected, same as The Fifth Element. So we'll probably get it by November. I just hope to receive it by the end of that month.

 

[Flloydo]

That’s a 1 month and 1 day delay. Not 2 months

Original release date was 31st August

It was never going to be August 31 as that is a Thursday
Zavvi had that date listed previously for some strange reason

October 2 is a usual Monday

Don’t matter they still listed that date and it’s not a standard release, it don’t matter what day of the week they list as the release. And I’m fairly certain fifth element never came out on a Monday either.
But regardless if It was the Monday before or after the 31st that’s still not a 2 months delay

Fifth Element was Monday July 31st
Some customers got delivery on release date but most was the Tuesday or later

 

[STUBANKS]

Shame this got delayed as the 31st is my birthday, hopefully it'll result in a better quality product, really loved the fifth element deluxe edition, some of the extras were a bit low quality except the multipass. I'm really looking forward seeing this in hand, I think the slips will look great, gloss steelbook too.

 

[MajimaGoro]

Ordered this one through a Facebook GB months ago, hope nothing goes wrong.

 

[TheWildEye]

EB & Zavvi still haven't finished the deliveries of The Fifth Element. We are still waiting on the Steelbooks.
No way Leon was anywhere near ready.

Didn't everyone get charged the Friday after delivery date? At least the most recent date after all the delays. Then get delivered a week and a day after delivery date. Except for me cos mine shipped a week after payment taken.

Go back through the Fifth Element thread you will see some members mention had payment taken on Friday July 28th with dispatch on 28th/29th/30th
Some customers did get delivery on Monday July 31st and others the next day on Tuesday August 1st
For some customers it varied when shipped as EverythingBlu team themselves was looking after packaging and dispatch of orders for the collector's and Deluxe editions.
That's why you had good packaging used.

Fifth Element release date was Monday July 31st (end of July) that's why payment started to be taken on the 28th and dispatch 28th/29th/30th for some orders.
Some customers it was after release date when payment was taken and order was dispatched.

 

[Lord Vader]

That's delay no 1 out the way anyhoo..
