The disc will be the same as the new US Special Edition

Here's something that's made me very happy. From the PR company -

Hi Matt,



I hope you are well, please find attached the press release for Pain & Gain. I am pleased to confirm that the UK release will feature the same extras as the US special edition release.



Kind Regards



Kerry


Latest update from Zavvi
Still waiting on finalised artwork.

The finishes are overall matte varnish, except for a spot UV gloss on Mark and Dwayne on the front cover.

There’s a pantone red on their names on the front cover, and emboss on the title treatment.

Confirmed as 1000 units only and from the traffic and questions we are getting, think this will only last a couple of days at the most before selling out.

So obviously there are a lot of other steelbook buyers outside of this forum, so they don't know about this re-listing and have probably missed out.

So my question to mod is, what if an HDN member places a bulk order now that there are more available? Like there are 100 available, but 2 members decide to order 50 each, what will happen than? Will Zavvi cancel those orders again?
 
This is crazy glad I got my pre order in the other day, the way it's going Zavvi might as well just build their own thunder dome and let everyone settle it that way

Zavvi's Terms and Conditions state ...

The products sold on the Website are not for re-sale or distribution. You are limited to a purchase of 5 items of any one product. We reserve the right to cancel orders and/or suspend accounts where we believe products are being ordered in breach of this provision.

that is correct, tho it will happen live .... so someone could place that order, but then shortly (today) it'll be cancelled ... so I guess presumably depending on how bad that happens it could come out and in stock a few times today.

thanks I hope nobody does that because I don't want this (constantly waiting etc.) to happen over and over again :p

Btw; do you happen to have a zavvi discount code we can use? :p

DEUT10 is expired :(
 
I actually believe this to be horse crap. If you missed it, it's your own fault. I didn't secure that many, but I always get extras. There are companies (ie. amazon, ES) that limit the quantity that can be ordered. If a company wants to limit the amount that can be ordered, then they should do it at the time the item is live and available to be ordered. Going back and canceling already placed orders is simply bad business, and quite frankly adds to the list of reasons why zavvi is proving they aren't professional.

Just my two cents.

EDIT - For the record, I have ordered above 5 copies before and sent Zavvi and email asking if that was OK. I got a response stating that my orders were fine, and they have no limits as to what can be ordered. I do see in a previous post a quote from zavvi's site stating a limit of 5. If that is truly the case, then zavvi needs to get their employees heads out of their ***es once and for all. Most unprofessional company I've dealt with.
