Still awaiting my copy, for my own peace of mind is anyone else (from the UK) in the same position ?

Me, not holding my breath about it coming though.

I'm in California and received my copy last week.

Received my copy in Australia today. As reported by some others, I'm slightly underwhelmed. Maybe I set my expectations a little too high. Definitely could have done with some em/de-bossing.

Not sure if it has been discussed upthread but it has what I can only describe as a vertical ripple through the paint / artwork when viewed under direct light. Is this common with gloss finished SBs? I don't have a large collection, but I had a quick check of a few other glossy SBs in my collection and none of them had this effect.

Same for me down in Kent. I'm already thinking that if it hasn't come yet, it isn't going to and I've already contacted Zavvi about it.

I'm still waiting too. Zavvi told me they can't/won't do anything about it until the 10th. I did get confirmation that they had about 300 copies in reserve for problems, so that's something at least.

They need 3500 in reserve for the Empire Strikes Back issues!

I have asked for an exchange on mine twice and am still getting the standard responses. I have been offered a discount and a refund so far. Hopefully 3rd time lucky will be an exchange!

Really? They wouldnt tell me when I asked if there would be any replacements.

Strange. I got ANH earlier this week, and I'm in the US.

Do hope it turns up soon as that is rather strange.

I didn't think you were into vat pour homme? Most of us like to avoid that if possible, and also keep out of prison.

Mine showed up in GA today

Well, I contacted them and they've said it's likely lost in transit and offered either a replacement or refund. They didn't even say I need to wait till a certain date before it's classed as lost so it makes me wonder whether they actually sent it out or not. Who knows with Zavvi. Think this is the 2nd time I've not received one from them with the same result.

 

[IRON MAN]

@Porradude It's more likely that it has to do with the agent you spoke with, as in one person would ask you to wait for X date whereas the other would go ahead and offer a resolution right away.

Thanks so much for posting that! I would have pointlessly waited another 4 days like they told me to. Instead, did the live chat today and got a replacement sent out. Zavvi to their credit are really good at responding quickly, but the inconsistency with the responses is maddening.
