Though in practice many K-Packet shipments come through without charges, so the total cost can indeed be just the purchase price plus shipping.
Yeah, it's just like Morton's Steakhouse and Burger King.
Well, to be fair, Burger King round our way is a significant step up from McDonalds!

And their cows aren't as mad.
True enough, you can get lucky - I have myself.
Nonetheless, this is still rather more than the fantasy price he suggested!
K-packet shipping is $10.80 and I have never been hit by customs, so actually, you're wrong... Simple as
Just because you've never personally been hit by customs, you can't with any real conviction say 'so actually, you're wrong... Simple as'.
Even if you don't get hit by customs, you're still looking at nearly a $15 dollar increase on the zavvi price quoted in the OP. Some people have bills to pay and although it may not sound like a lot to some, that's actually a decent wedge, especially if you're buying a few.

Very true. However, calling out people as liars based on pulling the higher priced shipping options and factoring customs as a given to back his argument up is baseless. I am talking from real experience from a number of orders from the kimchidvd website.
So... this thread is lame 
We in here to talk metal or discuss customs laws?

And people can call out other people as liars without facts can?
If it were the same package then yes, but it's not.
I'm not anti zavvi or pro kimchi, but people getting all bent out of shape about people spending their money however they want and calling people liars is just a wee bit ridiculous, we're all collectors in one way or another.
With respect I didn't say that.
Good point, but it's working both ways. There are also people with the Kimchi release seemingly keen to put the boot into news of a zavvi release...there isn't even a place holder for it yet.
Personally, I don't give a toss either way. You want to buy and promote endlessly Kimchi or Plain Archive - go ahead - and don't ***** when customs do catch up with you - and they will! And don't give me the superior attitude either - you're not!
Just (and this is a general request) quit knocking Zavvi every time the Koreans come up with the same title. It's not exactly fair, or even well placed often time.
'Nuff said!

I know forum etiquette dictates that one should stick rigidly to the topic at hand, but dare I say I find these indirect meanderings fairly stimulating.

so... i think the above discussion should be taken to the retailer threads and agree to disagree and as far as this release goes we dont need another re-release but just my opinion whether its zavvi, kimchidvd, blufans or whoever, lets see the continuation of new titles shall we ?
BUT still a nice release and alternative to those who didnt pick up the kimchidvd release

Folks, please take customs and other retail chat to the appropriate threads. Thanks!
I don't understand why people think that it has to be a competition between retailers. The truth is that different retailers cater to different sections of the market. Some collectors are happy to have a film they like in Steelbook form, whereas some like to pay a little bit extra to get something a little more fancy.
The thing is you seem to think that Burger King should be more like Morton's, in reality Burger King and its customers are perfectly happy that it is Burger King
