Well once people started receiving theirs before mine even dispatched I was getting worried lol.

I slept with my deluxe copy last night with one eye open incase one of you scallywags in here broke in to pinch it.

Yeah I let it have it haha. I'm gonna have to watch American Psycho.

Where is the Zavvi head office? I'd go in there and say I've paid you £99.99 for an item so take your finger outta your ass and get it sent.

Mate. Seriously. Why are you sharing this? Do you not understand how much this is a p!sstake? Mental gloat! Don’t give a f**k if it’s for the rest of your townsfolk or some sh!t. How the f**k are you getting away with 12 copies? You’re not a group buy host or anything. Literally sounds like it’s for resale purposes which I’ve always thought tbh. Anyone that says they’ve got to order 5+ copies for mates Is speaking b0llocks imo. I’m pretty sure those people can order themselves. If you can, they can

I was sharing it not to gloat, but because I'm in a somewhat unique position to track their shipping process, to try and calm @JinxyKatte down, that he's definitely not alone in having been charged a week ago, and still no despatch.
And no, others on my forum cannot order or pay, that's the point of some of the thousands of sanctions, is none of their local bank cards work outside of Russia.
And I'm not scalping them, sold at cost, maybe saving on shipping costs them all going together in one big 10kg box.

Yeah I was wondering why so many too. That seems excessive.

Didn't get enough that time, preordered more of Leon.

******* dispatched woooooooi

Well there you go. Could've not worried that much.

 

[JinxyKatte]

And I'm sure it has 0 effect on when they got to shipping your particular order.

Probably lol

THIS. It'll have made no difference. A week of stress for zip lol

You've got to remember this isn't a normal zavvi order, they're just the end retailer here. People seem to have forgotten that

Think of it in terms of dispatch from premium retailers. Blufans and hdz drip feed shipments for every release, so it's the same.

So there are 1000 deluxe ones right? Is getting 1000 a good number or a bad one. I wonder what it will be.

Apparently yours is unnumbered and missing the solid metal multi pass

 

[JinxyKatte]

I care far more about the multi pass than I should lol.

#846 arrived in Germany today. And no additional taxes. Fingers crossed that they aren’t billed afterwards.

Only number 1 or a significant number related to the film would be worth more.
I don't think number 1000 would be that special even being the last one of that edition, small possibility in value for when the film released? so number 1997 in the collectors edtiion?
