Somethings not adding up here.

Previously you said you only ordered 2. Now you're saying there was 4 steelbooks in the order? (coz you said you only ever order 2 per title in case one gets damaged so I assume you ordered 2 Top Guns too...?)

So they cancelled the complete order including the Top Guns too? :confused:
Correct. There was 4 in one order. But only 2 of each. Not 4 star wars. I didnt even try to put more than 2 star wars in my basket. I had 2 top guns and 2 star wars. And the whole order was canceled. And no explanation given. Ive had a few emails back and forth with them and they only said that this was very limited release and any multiple copies will be canceled. No matter ho many times i tell them i only ordered two the replies are as if im speaking to a wall.

Ive order two of the top gun separately after that and thats gone through fine and since yesterday have not had any cancellation on those. The issue is with star wars itself.

Anywho. Thats done. Im hoping they pop up in USA or other EU countries and ill order through there. Im pretty sure eventually some other countries will get these with 4k and maybe even same art. So will just have to be patient :)

Well what can I say? You're well aware you missed out because you didn't set yourself up to have a good chance at getting one. You just want the world to know your pain. Acknowledged.
Next time you'll do better... or not, and also give others grief for having secured a steelbook when you didn't really feel like sitting in front of the computer. How dare we! Nay, how dare Zavvi!!!

Yes I did. And it was. You didn't get one because you couldn't be bothered to get in front of the computer or your phone to buy it. That's really what it boils down to. It wasn't my fault, nor Zavvi's. I don't even know what you're complaining about!!!

Give me a break. You knew, or should have known because the info was here, that it was going to be limited. You took the risk of not ordering on the dot and instead waited a leisurely 3 hours or whatever just because you were hanging back having a cool one resting from your hectic work. That's on you.
I don't care. Zero facs given. It is completely irrelevant to the matter of you missing out because you weren't ready. Go find one for a fair price you're willing to pay, whatever it is, or wait for a restock or some other country to release these. People are actually saying it will happen. Wait for those instead of whining about untruthful persons or sharks or whatever's next in your list of excuses.
So you knew about it, you considered it "absolutely nothing" of an amount, yet you did nothing to make sure you got one the minute it went live. I can understand that approach if you were on the fence, but if you really wanted one and you felt like there weren't going to be enough to go around, why not take precautions so you didn't miss out? Why not go online the minute you can while they were still in stock? Or take a short break from work for literally 2 minutes?
I don't think I could provide you with any GB you'd be pleased as of now, with that really underlined, but it's also not my job to source you one.
1) you're right, I don't care, but 2) you don't have to go to eBay to get scalped, and also there are some deals to be had on eBay. It all depends on how much you want it vs can afford to pay for it.
It is whatever you want it to be. You might find it for cost price plus 10 pounds for all I know. I don't care, I haven't looked. But if true, why wouldn't you pay that? I would. I would be fully aware it was my fault I missed it, there was ample time to have picked it up, and I couldn't be bothered... someone did and they're only charging me 10 pounds for their time. It's reasonable. Would I pay 1000 pounds for the same? Probably not.

What can I say @DMD4k? You’re “GREAT”!
You’re so “right” on ALL accounts regarding someone you don’t know.
Now I’ll know to whom to go to ask for “the right advice” about ANYTHING, even if you had not ever heard about.
And I have to admit, I can’t rise at your “level”, therefore I will retreat myself (giving you a break), you can say and do whatever you consider is required or appropriate, you for sure know the best, and whatever you’ll say more, will be just about yourself alone!
My apologies for daring to hope to find some real useful options and suggestions here!
