[IRON MAN]

A bit of a good news and bad news for those who were waiting to hear the outcome of my call to Amazon's customer service... Was planning initially to make that call closer to release date but changed my mind and called earlier today.

I'm quoting verbatim: I apologize but we are unable to do any sort of amendments to orders that include unavailable items. That includes, adding the gift option, amending order, combining orders...

When I pressed for a why (since it can be easily done on other Amazon stores), the agent didn't have a justification.

However I was given the following advice (to be tested obviously): "once you see the steelbook back in stock, you can do either":

1- Try and edit your order to select "gift option" and the system might let you since the product is available.

OR

2- Place a new order and choose gift option etc... then cancel the previous order.

In reference to the second point, I reminded the agent about the limitation per order per customer and here's the good news for those who wanted to buy more than one copy for *cough* whatever reason *cough* :

If 7 days have passed by after the first order, you can place a second one without any issues.

I trust this helps

Earlier this month I was only able to land one by enabling one-click ordering.

So I did some digging in regards to the material on the special features discs for the steel book and found info on the Warner Japan site. It had the description for the 4 disc Pacific Rim 3D Collector's blu ray. When I Google translated the page, it showed on the second special features disc(disc 4) there are 2 featurettes: "All of Jager plan" (29:08min) & "Pacific Rim" until you (29:49) These could be the Walmart and Target Canada exclusives: "Pacific Rim: A History of Jaegers" & "The Making of Pacific Rim" both of which are about 30 minutes each. Fingers crossed!

Thanks Amazon.jp

How was you able to change the shipping cost?

You can change it..use Google Chrome Translator, go to your order, and choose 'Change Shipping Method'. Cheaper is not always better, I hope they don't skimp on packaging in return for the price decrease

Yeah that's what I'm afraid of....there's probably a reason why they dropped the price. Maybe I'll contact CS and find out what's the difference regarding packaging if there is any...

How you can change the shipping method to the cheaper one. Many thanks.
