Need to start donating bodily fluids. LOL. I wonder how much I could get for a kidney. LOL.

 

[WKRP]

Could not get Books to send me a registration e-mail. So it's back to YesAsia, which I have used previously. Yay!

[berns]

Ordered at JSDVD, now just need to cancel my Yesasia order!

 

[aufdringlich]

Do we have to deal with customs if we use jsdvd? i don't with yesasia.

Thanks!

Depends on your luck...i ordered two times from JS (two steelbooks each) and no customs...

really? i got taken 2 from jsdvd and had to pay additional 8€ :/
maybe i got more luck with Pi But dont think so

i see... well, the price is almost the same, for one or two €, i'll pick up from yesasia. I just don't understand why people cancel right away from yesasia, when the link comes up from jsdvd... with shipping cost, and since yesasia it's free, is almost the same thing (well, at least most of the times) and no customs.

One of the reasons that people prefer JSDVD is the speed at which you receive your Steels, as yesasia can take forever to arrive. JSDVD usually 4 Days for me, yesasia 2-3 Weeks.

Because JSDVD comes with the pre-order gift!!

 

[earthscope]

^
That too !!

 

[liammurphy1985]

People order from JSDVD because of the free gift, too! Not sure if that is available with this additional stock or if only on the original ~100 pre-orders...

Also the fact that not only is the steelbook much cheaper but add the EMS shipping fees and it comes out just a couple a dollars more than a copy sold thru yesasia.com alone.

yes really

but a lot of people say it depends on the amount you order...that means if two steels are sent together=> no customs - that was the case in my situation

if you only get one steel=> customs

but thats not confirmed of course and seems to be more random than anything else

the second chance is to add a note within the checkout,that you want your package marked with a value of 20USD...that should work better

good luck

 

[aufdringlich]

Ahhhh, thanks for the info!

What's the pre-order gift? or what usually is?

Look at post 72 it show the gift you get with this steelbook.

 

[bgmat58]

It is a cover to put over your BOOK of The Life of Pi. Pretty neat I think!

It appears much cheaper because YA include shipping in the price of the item and then advertise it as free. YA may really have to rethink this in the long run cos they continually seem to have everybody cancelling their orders every time because people think they're getting it cheaper elsewhere. When actually, they're not.
