Without the slip, how is the 2D version any different from what's coming out in the UK, for example :wtf:

No offence to anybody who likes it, but I personally do not like the 2D artwork, the more I look at it, the more I feel that someone left it to dry in a witch's pot full of blue and green tadpoles EEK!

The only version of this artwork I'm getting is the Singapore one, and that's because Alex made it rock! Else, wouldn't touch the 2D with a 40 foot barge pole.

I was talking about the 3d version. Wasn't clear in my post.
 
Mine too :( For 7 days now! UK customs are an absolute nightmare on Korean and Taiwanese packages at the moment. I'm guessing the big rise in Asian blu ray imports has finally caught their notice.

yep!

my last lot from jsdvd whilst no customs, had big red writing on it 'BUSINESS'
and JSDVD highlighted...

the days of korea/taiwan slipping through the net are over i guess
 
Got a delivery note yesterday in the mail, guess its a korean package.
Btw, Swedish customs seem more korea friendly!
 
This arrived in the UK on the 30th of March & is still stuck at mortherplucking customs where as my copy from Singapore arrived in 5 days!

You're not the only one mate. My Kimchidvd Hobbit package has been stuck in customs for 10 days now. Not much point in paying for EMS service really... :rolleyes:
 
I hope you have better luck than me. After an 11-day wait, my package got released from customs with £50 charges. EEK! That puts the cost of each steel at around £60 ($92) each. It would probably be cheaper to buy from ebay!

£50.00 charges. EEK!

Bad luck buddy. At that price I would want the Ring of Saruman delivered in solid gold...Plus not a KR slip in sight on these Hobbits.

That's really tough man, wow customs must be camping outside your house or what?? :drool:
 
I agree, what's the point of EMS if customs are going to hold onto it for 11 Days ! :(

Rob did you get the dreaded letter or a phone call from those buggers??

Seems that way mate. Picked up another £25 charges on Life of Pi, plus another package still stuck in customs for about a week. Think I'm going to have to route all orders through YesAsia from now on cos this is just brutal. They're not even declared as gifts, just merchandise.

Plus not a KR slip in sight on these Hobbits.

Thanks for reminding me lol! That's what makes it even worse. It's stuff I wish I'd never ordered in the first place.

Actually KimchiDVD sent me the wrong trk # initially and the address was to a customer in the US. With the tracking info I could see that it sailed through US customs within a day and was delivered a day later. Total transit time from Korea to the US - 4 days and NO customs hassle. Think I'm gonna have to move to the land of the FREE. :thumbs:

I'd say you were f@cked with even so much as a kiss.
Yesasia may be more expensive, but @ least they are customs friendly.

I've just checked on my ems tracking & it said that there was an unsuccessful delivery reason payment of charges & notice left.......but there is no notice. Will this go to my local sorting office? Who does it normally get delivered through?
