I now have confirmation that I can announce ... for all those worried about future packaging from Zavvi. My Play contact has been working with zavvi as well on this mission for better packaging. Between the 3 of us and the future comments from this community after its in place I'm sure it will be go over well.

[Fork]

[UpsetSmiley]

They don't ship to England either, just a heads up for anyone about to bother making an account

SteelBook™ Price Drop/Back in stock/On Sale/Sold out alert (Retailer/Ebay)

Also, in 'Safari', the United Kingdom is listed ... All others ... Dutch ninjas will help you out ...

UK is listed in the HELP pages as a country they ship to BUT when you actually try to set up an account UK is not a choice!!

 

[UpsetSmiley]

Guys, we should probably stop talking before all our posts get terminated (dramatically worded as possible) for not staying on topic. Like I said, they don't ship to England, it doesn't show up at checkout.

Sure, Zavvi.nl is nothing else than a website in Dutch made for customers in Holland. It's located at the same servers like zavvi.com or zavvi.es.

They all use the same product numbers (type "10851837" in the search field and you'll get "The Shining - Zavvi Exclusive Limited Edition Steelbook" in all 3 shops). Just the languages are different, also the stock quantity, discount (code) systems and there is some local language staff for the national sites available.

P.S. Be prepared, there is also zavvi.de working already (redirects to zavvi.nl), zavvi.fr (domain still parked), zavvi.it (redirects to zavvi.com) - and feel free to test other TLD (top level domains)

Zavvi Exclusive Disney Collection #17, #18 and #20 open for pre-order at Zavvi.nl

 

[paulboland]

I have contacted Zavvi and will let you all know what there reply is as soon as they tell me

I asked them how are Pre Order and other titles available on there Dutch site yet sold out on the UK site and are they separate print runs

Something wrong with Stargate and Aviator Available on Dutch Site yet sold out on UK Site

 

[Baltic]

its showing the exactly same prices on both sites for the aviator. 21,45€

Sorry, I was talking on Zavvi.com with prices in GBP. Prices in EUR are always more expensive by ~5%. You can check this using any actual exchange rate (I use GBP 1.00 = EUR 1.20). That's why I always buy using GBP as currency.

If it's separate print runs they will be a laughing stock! They will need to state from now on whether an item is a worldwide print run or just each country!

I want to know is V For Vendetta a 2000 print run or basically more because Zavvi are LYING to their customers yet again!

I think the email back will be generic response evading the question

Maybe DB could ask on the forums behalf

 

[BluSteel2012]

If something is a 'zavvi exclusive-limited to 2,500 copies' then I'd imagine that Zavvi have only 2,500 copies of that item and it's up to them to list them from whatever site they feel?

I could be wrong. I mean if I am, then what's the point? We'll never know the exact quantities if they keep 'reprinting' copies on various sites.

I don't know why they can't start the listings on all of their sites at the same time and when they're gone, they're gone!

 

[lgans316]

It looks like some people bought so many copies of these ultra limited print runs that they are worried now that it won't sell well due to confusions in the print run.
