Yes, I always do that, and have never been hit by customs

Makes no difference to me what value I put on it. I still get clobbered with Duty & VAT on pretty much every EMS shipment. Any careful inspection of the paperwork by HMRC would reveal that it's not actually a gift shipment, so it really just depends on how vigilant they are at point of entry. I've had JSDVD shipments impounded because I declared them as gifts. These days I just use regular airmail and avoid the headache!

You've kinda answered it yourself: don't use EMS. It's much quicker, but the 2 times I've used EMS, I've been caught. The 5 times I've NOT used EMS, it's come through without issue. I always have them declare it as 'Merchandise' and value £25, for the record.

I use to do the same but just at £20 instead, plus it still only takes around 10 days or less to arrive so its not really any slower ;)

Yeah, I vary it between £20 and £25, just so it's not identical each time.

And yeah, I didn't say "regular" was slow, but EMS was just quicker. Regular is usually up to 10 days, EMS about 5. For me, anyway.

This may have been discussed, but I haven't been through every page here...

The image in the listing on JSDVD has the title on the spine and the cover.

Is Taiwan getting the same release as BB and FS?

(Also, the OP should be updated to show the correct image.)

Jimmy it's only a temporary image on JSDVD ! And the Steelbook should be exactly the same as the Korean one with the only difference being the slip.....;)
Whether its a full slip like kimchi or 1/4 no one knows yet!
