Sorry to hear that Craig, I got a ding on my Gran Torino too, I contacted Amazon about it as it was packed like that, the parcel itself arrived undamaged, it's my first ever issue with Amazon.jp.Well I got my two this morning. This and Batman Begins. TDK has a scratch across the spine, underneath the shrink-wrap. *sigh*
Every second steelbook I purchase no matter whether it's in-store or online, is damaged. I'm ready to give up after only 2 months of collecting! So frustrated :/
Didn't even make you sign. My dhl guy always makes me sign for them.
Chip I believe there is a waiver you can sign with DHL that allows them to leave the packages on your door step without you being home to sign for it.

Take a deep breath and repeat after me. "its only a maunfacture defect scratch on the spine". Woooosawwwwwww. All better.![]()
True, but it declines in appeal as I purchased them mainly for trade pieces. I have the French double and Canadian editions open already.
no need to tip, just open the door shirtless 
My DHL guy knows me pretty well - a little Christmas "tip" goes a long way![]()
Yes there is. I just dont like the thought of packages piled up mile high with nobody at home.

You can't quit. Heck if you seen the pile of steel that is damaged at my place you would have a the big one.
Sorry to butt in, but I have never signed any DHL waiver and my DHL driver(s) always leave my AMZN.JP packages on my porch when no one is home. But they also know not to leave the packages in plain sight.![]()

My DHL girl knows me too I guess. I asked if she needed me to sign and said "I know you already...no need to?"no need to tip, just open the door shirtless

Did you get a reply or did you status change after paying?
Mine still has not been altered from Shipment held - Available upon receipt of payment
Sent them an email asking how long it will take before they put them out for delivery.
Think it would have been easier just going to the depot

Received mine!!!
Perfect condition and no custom fees.
They look amazing. Are you in the UK? How did you get so lucky with avoiding customs charges?
Canada.

Gotta say, when I saw the DHL label on my front door yesterday and noticed there wasn't any $ sign next to the customs brokeage fees, I didn't believe it...
When I got home tonight (yes, yesterday I signed the little waiver to allow them deliver it to my side door hidden from the street), I was like![]()

PS - aren't you supposed to get married or something this week?![]()


Not next week... but really soon... and YES I told myself that I SHOULD NOT get these... but after looking more and more pix... I had to order them...
No regrets here... But don't expect to see a wedding cake at my wedding![]()
