im not sure to whether to cancel my extra of copy of this or not because if it goes OOP then its a very good trade deal.

I wouldn´t.

Also because if you order just one copy there are possibilities that arrives damaged.

I received yesterday several copies of Watchmen and they are all with paint chips.....

i must be lucky as i've yet to receive a damaged steel from play. lol now i've said that my next ones will be covered in paint chips.

Now this one I can't wait for! I loved this film...

 

[zoneism]

Looks like this has sold out then. Can't find it on site anymore

Hope everyone got their orders in

 

[TobinFrost]

OOS I guess

 

[travid]

Just about managed to secure a pre order yesterday. Very lucky!

 

[Jace88]

Got my order in

 

[policenauts]

OOS finally

 

[entreri]

Hope everyone interested got their orders in!
maybe the sales of both Oldboy and BR will convince play to release more Asian classics in SB format.

I pre-ordered one a few days ago, out of reflex, when people started talking about it going OOP. After about 10 mins I realised that it's very unlikely I'll actually watch it and cancelled the order. The only reason for keeping it would be to join the scalpers on eBay. Simply not an option (I'm still MASSIVELY bitter about having to pay £50 for Play's Iron Man because I missed the pre-order window).

Anyway, hopefully this meant at least one person who wants it will get it (for themselves, not for eBay).

Got my order in before it went OOS

 

[sparky4life]

I figured this one would go OOS pretty quickly.

Good thing I had my friend on the other side of the pond pre-order it for me as soon as it went up.

 

[wolfmansgotnards]

I just cancelled 2 copies.

Well I thought that my preorder was safe but have just had an email from play saying that my account/card needs verifying! Have just spent my lunch hour trying to get hold of them and can't and I only have 3 days to sort it before they cancel the order. Looks like I will be spending some time on hold over the next few days!

You might be able to do it online - if you go into your account and just enter the card number again this might work. I had that one time and it cleared everything up.

Why didn't you just keep your preorder and use it to trade for a title that your unwilling to pay too much for? One rare item for another.

It's a good way to get what you need and your not scalping anyone because they really want what you have too.

I bet they just want to run a security check, This happened to me a few months ago. I had built up such a huge amount of preorders that they just wanted to check to see if someone was running up a huge bill on my card

Finally managed to get through and your right, they just wanted to confirm my details and my order is still safe Although the girl I spoke to said my order for Oldboy would be sent in the next 24 hours!!! I guess she was just reading the standard script.

Good man! I didnt order one either as it has no interest to me.

Nice to see theres some collectors who actually allow others who want an item to get a copy

 

[townterrier]

Unfortunately, you will always get people buying a handful of certain titles such as this to make a profit on Ebay.......luckily, we're in the right forum to get the chance to make the decision whether to purchase or not.

Really pleased I found this little goldmine of a forum.....

 

[Doctor Canus]

24 days to be OOS

I thought it would go faster.
